Hello,

 

Does anyone have a generic RSPO letter given to vendors and customers, to advise them of requirement followed for compliance? This would help dearly, am new to the whole palm oil mass balance area.

Here's what Chat GPT had to say about it:

Subject: Compliance with RSPO Standards for Sustainable Palm Oil
 
Dear [Vendor/Customer Name],
 
We hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. As part of our commitment to environmental sustainability and responsible sourcing, we wanted to take a moment to inform you about our adherence to the principles and criteria set forth by the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO).
 
The RSPO is an international organization dedicated to promoting the sustainable production and use of palm oil. Palm oil is an essential ingredient in many consumer goods, but its production has been associated with deforestation, habitat loss, and other environmental and social issues. The RSPO has established a set of principles and criteria to address these concerns and ensure that palm oil is produced in an environmentally and socially responsible manner.
 
We are proud to share that our company has undertaken the following measures to comply with RSPO standards:
 
1. **Sourcing:** We source palm oil and palm oil derivatives only from RSPO-certified suppliers who adhere to the RSPO Principles and Criteria.
 
2. **Traceability:** We have implemented robust traceability systems to ensure that the palm oil used in our products can be traced back to RSPO-certified sources.
 
3. **No Deforestation:** We are committed to ensuring that the palm oil used in our products is produced without causing deforestation, particularly in high-conservation value and high-carbon stock areas.
 
4. **No Exploitation:** We work with suppliers who adhere to fair labor practices and uphold the rights of workers in the palm oil industry.
 
5. **Transparency:** We are transparent about our palm oil sourcing and are committed to providing information to our customers about our efforts to support sustainable palm oil production.
 
By implementing these measures, we aim to contribute to the preservation of biodiversity, the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, and the promotion of fair and ethical labor practices in the palm oil industry.
 
We would like to express our gratitude for your continued partnership and support. We encourage you to join us in our commitment to sustainable palm oil by considering RSPO-certified products and suppliers for your own operations.
 
Should you have any questions or require additional information regarding our RSPO compliance or our sustainable sourcing efforts, please do not hesitate to contact us. We value our relationship with you and look forward to working together to create a more sustainable future.
 
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
 
Sincerely,
 
[Your Name]
[Your Title]

Here's a copy of a questionnaire we send to all vendors.  They have to tell us upfront if any product we buy contain palm oil, and we ask them for information on certifications relating to RSPO.
