Effinature × ISO 17298
ISO 17298:2025: Biodiversity (strategy & operations)
Compared with ISO 17298:2025: Biodiversity (strategy & operations), Effinature covers the applicable biodiversity criteria as follows: NCO 10/10, EVO 10/10, HOR 10/10, HVE 3/10. The remaining Effinature criteria go beyond this framework's biodiversity scope.
With Effinature certification, you already meet ISO 17298
The Effinature NCO reference covers 10/10 of ISO 17298's applicable biodiversity criteria, and documents 54 additional criteria that ISO 17298 does not require.
