Quality, sustainability and supply chain assurance are more than industry buzzwords. At Exporta, they are commitments backed by recognised standards and a focus on continuous improvement.
When choosing a supplier, the products themselves are only part of the decision. Businesses also need confidence in quality, reliability and the standards upheld throughout their supply chain.
For organisations operating in demanding sectors such as food manufacturing, retail and logistics, these considerations are particularly important. That is why Exporta has invested in recognised certifications and sustainability assessments that demonstrate our commitment to quality, environmental responsibility and responsible business practices.
Our recent achievement as a BRCGS Approved Partner marks another important milestone, particularly for customers operating within the food industry.
Quality you can rely on
Exporta holds ISO 9001 quality management certification, the internationally recognised standard for quality management systems. It provides a framework for maintaining consistent processes, meeting customer expectations and continually improving how we operate.
For customers, this offers additional confidence in the systems supporting the products they purchase. Returnable transit packaging plays a vital role in protecting and moving goods through supply chains, making product quality and supplier reliability essential considerations.
Our ISO 14001 environmental management certification complements this commitment, providing a structured approach to managing environmental responsibilities, identifying impacts and improving environmental performance.
Together, these certifications demonstrate that quality and environmental management are embedded in our business processes, rather than simply being statements of intent.
Supporting demanding supply chains
Becoming a BRCGS Approved Partner strengthens Exporta’s credentials in an industry where product safety, traceability and supply chain assurance are critical.
BRCGS is widely recognised across the food and packaging industries, helping businesses establish confidence in the standards and controls supporting their supply chains.
For customers sourcing transit packaging, working with a supplier that understands the importance of recognised standards can support procurement decisions, supplier assessments and internal compliance requirements.
While individual products must always be assessed for their intended application, our BRCGS Approved Partner status reinforces our commitment to supporting customers operating in demanding, quality-conscious environments.
Putting sustainability into practice
Environmental responsibility is another important part of our approach.
In 2025, Exporta achieved independent third-party verification of its carbon neutrality declaration under PAS 2060, covering UK sales and distribution operations for reusable transit packaging during the 2024 reporting period.
This involved assessing greenhouse gas emissions within a defined scope and documenting our approach to managing the associated carbon footprint.
We have also achieved Bronze-level recognition from EcoVadis, which assesses businesses on sustainability criteria including environmental performance, labour and human rights, ethics and sustainable procurement.
For customers increasingly required to demonstrate responsible sourcing and understand their suppliers’ environmental credentials, these achievements provide valuable evidence when evaluating potential partners.
Our focus on reusable transit packaging also supports businesses exploring alternatives to single-use packaging, helping them consider solutions designed for repeated use within their operations.
Confidence beyond the product
Ultimately, certifications matter because of what they represent for customers.
They provide additional assurance around quality management, demonstrate a structured approach to environmental responsibility and help support supplier evaluation in industries where standards are increasingly important.
At Exporta, we believe being a good supplier means looking beyond the product catalogue. It means understanding the challenges our customers face, recognising the standards they must uphold and continually working to meet their expectations.
Our ISO certifications, independently verified carbon neutrality achievement, EcoVadis recognition and BRCGS Approved Partner status reflect that commitment.
Because when your packaging plays an important role in your supply chain, confidence in the supplier behind it matters just as much.
