Roundtable on Sustainable Biomaterials (RSB)
Roundtable on Sustainable Biomaterials (RSB)
Profile
A multi-stakeholder organisation committed to ensuring best practice in sustainable biomaterials.
The RSB has members from a worldwide movement of businesses, NGOs, academics, government and UN organisations that all have the same goal of supporting and driving best practice for sustainable biomaterial production.
We are a collaboration of more than 60 diverse organisations that have united to create the RSB. What was once a vision to ensure biofuel sustainability has grown into a global sustainability certification for all biomaterials.
Rationale
The RSB is committed to the reduction of the use of highly hazardous pesticides. As an ISEAL member, we agree to include the active ingredients found in the Rotterdam Convention, Stockholm Convention and Montreal Protocol noted in attached to our lists of banned pesticides in the next and subsequent versions of our standards. We intend that this collective approach will support broader efforts to remove these pesticides from circulation.
