Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO)

The Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) is a global initiative aimed at promoting the sustainable production and management of palm oil. Founded in 2004, it brings together businesses, NGOs, and local communities to establish standards for environmentally friendly palm oil cultivation. The RSPO certification ensures that palm oil is produced without causing deforestation, protecting wildlife, and respecting workers' rights. By encouraging responsible practices, the RSPO helps consumers make informed choices, promotes industry accountability, and aims to reduce the negative impact of palm oil production on ecosystems and communities.
