Responsible Hemp Standard

The Responsible Hemp Standard (RHS) is the first global chain-of-custody certification program built specifically for industrial hemp. Designed to meet the growing demand for transparency, sustainability, and accountability, RHS provides a credible path for verifying responsible practices from seed to final product. Spanning applications from textiles and nonwovens to food, feed, construction, and bioplastics, RHS sets rigorous requirements for farming, processing, and labeling—ensuring that certified hemp materials are traceable, ethically sourced, and climate-smart. RHS is managed by INCCert, a mission-driven standard owner advancing regenerative, socially responsible, and fully auditable supply chains for emerging commodities. Whether you're a grower, processor, mill, or brand, RHS helps you turn sustainability commitments into trusted claims, backed by third-party verification and global recognition.
