Nieuwkoop Europe believes that quality, safety and sustainability are very important. In our business operations, we continue to take into account the quality requirements of our customers and the impact our activities have on the environment. To guarantee this, we have our processes tested regularly, and we have all the certifications mentioned below in our possession.
Quality is paramount
We believe it is important that customers can rely on our quality. For that reason, we dedicate a lot of our time and attention to quality control, customer satisfaction and safety to ensure that we meet the expectations of our customers.
ISO 9001:2015
To make quality a structural part of the organisation, we use the ISO 9001 quality management system. The quality management system helps us to assess whether our products and services meet the expectations of our customers and whether they comply with the required laws and regulations. Download here

To further ensure reliability, transparency, and quality within the floriculture supply chain, Nieuwkoop Europe holds the MPS-Florimark Trade certificate. This quality mark combines multiple quality aspects into a single comprehensive package and consists of Florimark TraceCert, Florimark GTP (Good Trading Practice), and ISO 9001 (see above). The MPS-Florimark Trade certificate underscores our commitment to sustainable supply chain cooperation, premium quality, and maximum reliability in our services. Download here
Florimark TraceCert focuses on full traceability within the supply chain. This means that we can always identify the origin of our products and the steps through which they reach the customer. This transparency contributes to an honest, efficient, and responsible trading process.
With GTP, we demonstrate that we meet strict requirements in the field of trading practices and product quality. This certificate confirms that we operate in accordance with international standards for storage, transport, and administration, ensuring that customers can always rely on consistent and safe delivery. In addition, the Florimark GTP certificate confirms that environmental and labour regulations are upheld.
Sustainable business with attention to the environment
Nieuwkoop Europe wants to make the world a lot greener with its products, literally and figuratively. We do this, among other things, by reducing our energy and water consumption, separating waste and by taking responsibility for the use of pesticides. We don’t make the world greener on our own. We need each other to jointly develop sustainable processes – from production to the customer. That is why we work together with parties that comply with our environmental and quality requirements.
MPS-A
We have an MPS-A certificate, which means that we minimise the environmental impact on our production locations. To achieve this, we closely monitor and control the use of raw materials, such as pesticides, fertilisers and energy. Download here
ISO 14001:2015
The international ISO 14001:2015 standard focuses on systematically managing environmental responsibilities and contributing to the environmental pillar of sustainability as an organisation. This standard specifies the requirements of an efficient environmental management system that organisations can apply to optimise their environmental performance. With our ISO 14001:2015 certification, we can demonstrate that an active environmental policy is fundamental to the procedures within the organisation and that we act according to a responsible environmental management system.

By continuously optimising our processes and systems, we ensure that all data is carefully protected. This commitment to information security reflects our pursuit of trust and integrity in all our business relationships.
ISO 27001:2022
