What Tests Are Required to Obtain Compost Certification?

A large number of tests, analyzes and measurements defined in many standards published by domestic and foreign organizations are carried out in advanced laboratories. Here are a few test examples for obtaining a C-Label (Compost Labeling) compost certificate, including but not limited to:
