Benefits of Product Certification

The USDA Certified Biobased Product label is designed to help purchasers and users identify products with biobased content and to assure them of the accuracy of this content. In addition, this certification label is designed to increase awareness of the existence and importance of biobased products.

Certified products are listed in the BioPreferred Catalog, providing a marketing avenue to inform consumers. The certification label can also help federal government purchasers locate biobased products for which they have mandatory purchasing requirements.
