Certificates and standards

The paperwork that travels with the sugar. A certificate is not decoration on a supplier's website — it is the thing your compliance officer, your customs broker and your own customers act on, so this page says what we hold and what you receive.

National and international certificates

Eqlid Sugar holds national and international certificates in the company's own name. Below is what each group of documents is for, and how you get to read them yourself.

National certificates

The documents that describe this works and this company at home. They are issued to Eqlid Sugar itself, which is the difference between a producer and an intermediary quoting somebody else's paperwork.

International certificates

The documents your side of the transaction asks for: the ones that let goods from this works be accepted in a market that has never seen the factory and never will.

The certificate file

All of it together, sent on request as one file. We would rather your compliance officer read the documents than read our description of them, which is why the file goes out before you have committed to anything.

How the testing behind them works Documents for your market

Analyses issued per consignment

A certificate describes the company. An analysis describes your goods. These are the documents that are produced for the consignment you buy, rather than held once and shown to everybody.

What is issued with a consignment, and by whom
Document Issued by What it establishes
Certificate of analysis our laboratories The measured values for the lot that was produced for your order
Agreed specification sheet the export desk The parameters settled before production, in the units the analysis reports
Packing and marking record the works How the goods are made up, stacked and marked in the container
Certificate file the company The national and international certificates held in the company's name

Which documents a particular destination requires is fixed with the export desk before production, because the requirement is set by your market and not by us. Bring that list into the inquiry and it is answered inside the offer rather than discovered while the goods are at sea.
