MSC, ASC Collaborate to Set Global Standard for Seaweed
Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) and Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC) have collaborated to create a global standard for certifying seaweed operations. The seaweed standard will demonstrate mutual sustainability
principles and standard systems, referencing best available scientific understanding and industry practices, that
conform to international norms of good conduct, including FAO Guidelines for Eco labelling and ISEAL Codes of Good Practices.
The standard will allow certification from both wild harvest and farmed seaweed, regardless of the scale or location of the operation.
