Retraced

On the retraced platform, different certificate types and standards are available. They differ in scope and application. In this article, we will present which certificate types we have in the system and on which level they work on.

There are 4 certificate types with the following level:

Memberships - company level Examples: Fair Wear, Bluesign System Partner, Leather Working Group, Better Cotton Initiative

Company Certificates - company level Examples: SA8000, ISO 5001, B Corporation, STeP by Oeko-Tex

Scope Certificates - company level Examples: GOTS, GRS, RCS, Fairtrade Textile Standard, Cotton made in Africa

Transaction Certificates - product level Examples: GOTS, GRS, RCS, Fairtrade Textile Standard, Cotton made in Africa ​Note: To each Scope Certificate there is a Transaction Certificate in our system. We split those certificates as we wanted to simplify scope certificates. The scope certificates works on company level and certifies that a company produces according to the standards requirement. The Transaction Certificate works on product level and certifies that the according product(s) and/or component(s) linked in the request meet the standards requirements
