On February 10th, 2022, IOAS took the decision to suspend ALGI International Inc.’s Textile Exchange and ISO/IEC 17065 accreditation.
ALGI has been invited to take corrective actions to enable IOAS to lift the suspension.
Whilst the suspension is in effect ALGI is not permitted to accept new applications or extend the scope of certificates but is required to maintain surveillance on existing certificate holders.
Any operations, certification bodies and authorities that relied on these accreditations are asked to take note.
