Ecogruppo Italia’s ‘Residuo Zero’ certification responds to the growing demand of the modern consumer, who is increasingly aware of the negative effects of plant protection products on health and the environment. The absence or minimal presence of pesticides in consumer products is a priority for those who consciously choose what they buy.
Our certification ensures greater traceability and visibility of zero-residue agri-food products, giving consumers accurate information on the quality of the food they buy.
The specification defines the requirements for the certification of agricultural, zootechnical and agri-food products that, when placed on the market, do NOT have residues of phytosanitary and/or zoo-pharmaceutical products in quantities detectable by the analytical instruments of qualified and accredited testing laboratories, as indicated in the individual test reports.
The main certifiable products, intended for human consumption or used in animal feed, fall into the following categories:
- Food products
- Feed and Pet Food
“Zero Residuo” certification ensures that products meet the highest standards of quality and safety for consumers. The certification covers every stage: from cultivation to processing and packaging.
