MSC Certified: What Does it Mean and Why Does it Matter?

In recent years, sustainability has become a crucial consideration for consumers and businesses alike. From how products are sourced to their environmental impact, buyers are increasingly demanding transparency and responsibility. For those in the nutritional industry, one certification stands out as a beacon of sustainability and quality: MSC Certification. But what does it mean for a product to be MSC Certified, and why should you care? Let’s dive into the details.



Understanding the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC)


The Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) is an international non-profit organisation established to address the issue of overfishing and to promote sustainable fishing practices. Founded in 1997, the MSC aims to safeguard seafood supplies for future generations while preserving marine ecosystems. Through its rigorous standards, the MSC certifies fisheries that adhere to sustainable practices, ensuring that marine environments remain healthy and productive.



The MSC Certification Process


To earn MSC Certification, fisheries must meet three main principles:

  1. Sustainable Fish Stocks: Ensuring that fishing is conducted at a level that allows fish populations to remain healthy and replenished.

  2. Minimising Environmental Impact: Fishing operations must minimise their impact on marine habitats and ecosystems.

  3. Effective Fishery Management: Fisheries must comply with local, national, and international laws and have robust systems in place to respond to environmental changes.

Once certified, products can carry the distinctive blue MSC eco-label, which signals to consumers that the product originates from a fishery that meets these high standards of sustainability.



What Does MSC Certification Mean for Your Products?


When a product carries the MSC Certification, it ensures that the raw materials used were sourced from fisheries that meet stringent sustainability and traceability standards. For consumers, this provides peace of mind knowing that their purchase supports environmental stewardship and sustainable practices.

For businesses, MSC Certification is more than just a badge of honour. It demonstrates a commitment to responsible sourcing and positions your products as leaders in the market for sustainability-conscious consumers.
