GUIDELINES : Responsible purchasing of palm oil: a step-wise approach
Posted on March, 11 2010
This guide contains specific activities that companies can undertake to achieve responsible purchasing of palm oil.
The aim is to help companies to promote and support the production and use of sustainable palm oil and to minimize the usage of palm oil from plantations that have been established on cleared forests, or from plantations with unacceptable social and environmental standards and/or unresolved land tenure conflicts.
