This standard is designed explicitly for the managers (Services Providers) of the **"Plastic Credit"** system, which finances the collection and safe disposal of low-value, non-commercially recyclable plastic waste—waste that is otherwise ignored by collectors and left to pollute the environment. The primary goal of the standard is to ensure that these ocean-protection efforts are financially and physically transparent, traceable, and completely free from fraud. ## **Key Technical Criteria of the OBP NEU Standard** Rather than focusing on physical recycling, this standard enforces strict rules regarding the documentation and "crediting" of the process from the collection of plastic waste to its final disposal: - **Scope and Low-Value Plastics:** The system strictly covers the collection of low-value plastics with no economic value, which have the highest risk of ending up in the ocean (e.g., multi-layered packaging, snack wrappers, degraded plastic bags). - **Plastic Credit Generation and Prevention of Double Counting:** Every 1 ton of OBP collected from nature and safely disposed of is converted into 1 "OBP Credit." - It is mandatory that these credits and their trading transactions are recorded with unique serial numbers in ZPO’s global OBP Credit Registry. This rigorous tracking absolutely prevents the same batch of plastic or credit from being sold to multiple brands (double counting). - **End-of-Life Verification:** The service provider must prove with official documents, weighbridge tickets, and analyses that the collected waste has been ultimately disposed of without harming the environment (e.g., used as alternative fuel in cement kilns via co-processing with strict emission filters, or through advanced thermal treatments). - **Social Compliance and Ethical Labor:** To prevent the exploitation of waste pickers (often working in the informal sector), rules regarding fair compensation, the prohibition of child labor, and occupational health and safety are meticulously audited. ## **Why Choose OBP NEU Services Provider Certification with ETKO?** If you are a waste management company, NGO, or environmental initiative looking to finance your projects by selling "Plastic Credits" to global brands, the credits you sell must be internationally verified. ETKO’s internationally accredited auditing experts independently verify your entire process, from on-the-ground collection activities to your financial database records. The OBP NEU certificate, backed by ETKO’s assurance, transforms the plastic credits you generate into legal, transparent, and "purchasable" environmental impact certificates for global luxury, food, and cosmetic brands. ## 如何向 ETKO 申请 OBP NEU (Neutrality) Services Provider Standard (Ocean Bound Plastic) 认证？ 请通过 ETKO Ecoport 门户申请：https://ecoport.etko.com.tr/apply ## 申请流程 在 ETKO，我们以透明、高效、清晰的方式管理您的申请。流程包括以下步骤： 1. **申请与信息沟通** — 收集贵公司架构与生产工艺的初步信息。 2. **方案与合同** — 提供详细的检验方案，并在您确认后签署合同。 3. **审核前准备** — 准备所需文件（化学品清单、社会责任文件等）。 4. **现场审核** — ETKO 专业审核员到访贵司现场，对照准则核查符合性。 5. **报告与发证** — 在不符合项（如有）关闭后，批准审核报告并颁发证书。 ## Accreditations - GOTS: International Organic Accreditation Service - accreditation for certification programs worldwide. - National Organic Program (NOP): United States Department of Agriculture — NOP accredited certifying agent. - TR Organik & GLOBALGAP & İTU: Turkish Accreditation Agency (TURKAK) — Turkey's national accreditation body for conformity assessment. - COSMOS: International Organic Accreditation Service — accreditation for certification programs worldwide. - Textile Exchange Standards: International Organic Accreditation Service — accreditation for certification programs worldwide. - ISO/IEC 17065:2012: International Organic Accreditation Service — accreditation for certification programs worldwide. ## Countries of operation Bangladesh, Pakistan, Ukraine, Korea, China, Denmark, Germany, Syria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kyrgyzstan, Serbia, Romania, Sweden, Bulgaria, Russia, United Arab Emirates, Qatar ## 在哪里可以找到 OBP NEU (Neutrality) Services Provider Standard (Ocean Bound Plastic) 法规和表格？ ETKO 文件中心提供该标准的法规、申请表及现行指南：https://ecoport.etko.com.tr/apply ## Related pages - HTML: https://www.etko.com.tr/zh/certifications/plastic/obp-neu-neutrality-hizmet-saglayici-standardi-ocean-bound-plastic - About ETKO: https://www.etko.com.tr/zh/about - Contact: https://www.etko.com.tr/zh/contact - Document center: https://www.etko.com.tr/zh/documents?category=plastic&standard=obp-neu-neutrality-hizmet-saglayici-standardi-ocean-bound-plastic
