Vietnam Ancient Tea Affirms Its Quality and International Integration Capabilities with ISO 14064-1:2018 and Halal Certifications

In the journey of developing Vietnamese tea products, quality is reflected not only in the flavour of every cup of tea, but also in production processes, environmental responsibility, and the ability to meet the standards of international markets.

With a commitment to sustainable development and expanding opportunities to bring Vietnamese tea closer to consumers around the world, Vietnam Ancient Tea continuously strives to improve standards in its production and business operations. The two certifications, ISO 14064-1:2018 and Halal, represent notable milestones in this journey.

1. ISO 14064-1:2018 – Transparency in Greenhouse Gas Accounting Towards Sustainable Development

The verification statement issued by CGLOBAL for the tea manufacturing plant confirms the verification of its greenhouse gas inventory report in accordance with ISO 14064-1:2018.

This international standard sets out the principles and requirements for quantifying and reporting greenhouse gas emissions and removals at the organizational level. Biogenic CO₂ emissions are reported separately at 0.03 tCO₂e.

Greenhouse gas inventory and verification provide an important foundation for businesses to better understand their emissions footprint from production activities, gradually improve environmental data management, and establish appropriate improvement plans.

For the tea industry, where product quality is closely linked to growing regions, processing methods, and operational activities, paying attention to environmental data also helps lay the groundwork for a more responsible production model.

The ISO 14064-1:2018 verification statement therefore marks a step forward in standardizing and increasing the transparency of the plant's greenhouse gas inventory, while demonstrating Vietnam Ancient Tea's attention to the increasingly stringent environmental requirements across supply chains.

2. Halal Certification – Expanding Opportunities to Access International Markets

The Halal Certificate issued by GHC Global Halal Certification Co., Ltd. covers products within the scope of certification.

Halal is a system of requirements based on the principles of Islamic law, applicable to products and processes within the scope of assessment. In the food sector, meeting Halal standards helps businesses demonstrate that their products and related activities comply with the applicable certified requirements.

For dried tea products, Halal certification plays a practical role in supporting businesses in reaching Muslim consumers and exploring cooperation opportunities in markets where demand for Halal products exists.

3. Two Certifications – Two Aspects of Vietnam Ancient Tea's Development Strategy

ISO 14064-1:2018 and Halal focus on two different aspects, yet both contribute to establishing a foundation for business development.

While ISO 14064-1:2018 focuses on the quantification and reporting of greenhouse gas emissions, Halal certification addresses the conformity of products and activities within the assessment scope with Halal requirements.

Together, these certifications reflect Vietnam Ancient Tea's development direction, which extends beyond product improvement to include greater transparency in production operations and the ability to meet the specific requirements of target markets.

This also provides an important foundation for the business to gradually strengthen trust among customers, distribution partners, and importers.

Vietnamese Tea on Its Journey to the World

Vietnamese tea embodies the values of its land, climate, tea varieties, and processing expertise accumulated over generations. For these values to reach a wider international audience, product quality must go hand in hand with appropriate standards and transparency in business operations.

The ISO 14064-1:2018 greenhouse gas inventory verification statement and Halal certification mark important milestones in the journey towards improving production capabilities, enhancing market readiness, and developing Vietnamese tea brands.

From growing regions to processing methods, and from the quality of each product to recognized standards, Vietnam Ancient Tea continues to pursue its goal of bringing Vietnamese tea products closer to customers at home and abroad.
