The certification label can be used on product labels and promotional materials.<\/p><p>Certification costs can vary significantly due to multiple factors, including company size, product range, and geographical location. It typically encompasses application fees, audit fees, and potentially travel expenses (if on-site audits are required).<\/p><p>Roughly estimated, entities with one facility can expect an annual certification cost ranging between 1,200 and 3,000 euros.
