Where we are on certification — stated plainly
We'd rather show the real status of our compliance roadmap than claim a certification early. Here is exactly where each item stands today.
Raw material sourcing
Birch sourced from managed forestry suppliers; alternate supplier lines qualified to avoid single-source risk.
FSC Chain of Custody — in progress
Audit process underway with an accredited certification body. We share current status and timeline on request, rather than a fixed date.
EU food-contact documentation
EU 1935/2004 compliance file being assembled alongside the certification process.
SUP Directive context
Our product category sits inside the material shift the Directive is driving across EU foodservice and retail.
Food-contact material
Documentation in preparation; untreated birch, no coatings or additives requiring separate migration testing.
Chain of Custody
Status: audit in progress. We update distributors directly rather than displaying a certificate before it's issued.
Moisture control
Held below industry threshold to prevent condensation damage in transit and storage.
Production, based in Istanbul
A single-shift line today, with a clear path to a second shift as order volume justifies it.
From Türkiye
Road/short-sea transit to major EU ports — no long ocean crossing.
Typical Asia routing
Reference point only — most competing birch cutlery on EU shelves ships this route today.
