Established more than 30 years ago, RSPCA Certified works to improve the quality of life for Australia’s farmed animals.
RSPCA Certified is underpinned by species-specific, publicly available Standards and a rigorous certification process involving comprehensive assessments by trained RSPCA Assessors.
Every two years, we like to take the opportunity to share some of the recent news from the RSPCA Certified team – to communicate the impact we’re having on farm animal welfare and to highlight some of our successes and challenges.
Join the hundreds of forward-thinking producers and brands in realising a future of higher-welfare farming.
