GACP CERTIFICATION
Good Agricultural Collection Practice
GACP Approval with ACS Canada Certification
ACS Canada provides GACP approval services for organizations involved in the cultivation, collection, processing, and handling of medicinal plants, herbs, cannabis, and herbal products. Good Agricultural and Collection Practice (GACP) is a quality assurance system designed to support the production of safe, consistent, and high-quality medicinal plant materials used in herbal and natural health products.
ACS Canada issues GACP approval certificates directly under the ACS Canada approval program. Since GACP is currently not an accredited certification standard, ACS Canada generally recommends combining GACP approval with ISO 22000 IAF-accredited certification or ISO 9001 IAF-accredited certification to strengthen international recognition, agricultural safety, quality assurance, and customer confidence.
ACS Canada GACP Approval Program
- Organizations seeking GACP approval must demonstrate compliance with applicable regulatory and operational requirements related to agricultural and collection practices.
- Applicants must provide evidence that effective procedures and controls are implemented to ensure product quality, traceability, hygiene, and compliance with GACP requirements.
- ACS Canada may conduct document reviews, facility audits, and independent assessments to evaluate conformity with GACP principles.
