Declare Third-Party Verification and the Living Product Challenge

All manufacturers attempting the Living Product Challenge (LPC) are required to hold a third-party verified Declare label for all products attempting LPC, unless exempted per a formal program Exception. For manufacturers attempting the Living Product Challenge, it is recommended that a member of the LPC Ecosystem act as the assessor for the product attempting LPC certification, or confirm with the Ecosystem auditor that the assessor partnership is approved. LPC products not assessed by the selected LPC Ecosystem auditor may require re-review as part of LPC certification. A Third Party Verified Declare label is not required prior to the start of LPC Certification, but may expedite the Living Product Challenge certification process.
