The Naturland Fair Standards, which are based on the International Fair Trade Charter, were created in 2010 in collaboration with fair trade organisations and committed companies.

At its core, Naturland Fair is based on the Naturland organic certification, which specifies requirements for organic farming and social aspects such as fair working conditions in line with local legislation, zero child labour and a respect for human rights. Naturland Fair is a supplementary certification for Naturland partners and members who also incorporate the principles of fair trade.
