Everything you need to move through certification.
Every ASC-certified farm, feed mill and seafood company certified to the Chain of Custody Standard is on the record, searchable by name, right across the network.
Once you’re ASC Feed Certified, you’ll need to sign a feed licensing agreement – during certification, or straight after.
Signing incurs an annual fee (January – December). Find out more in our ASC Feed Licensing Guide, plus how to use ASC in your marketing.
ASC uses a digital platform called MyASC for all certified entities to report requested certification data, register products and get your product labels approved. Once a feed mill has signed a contract with a CAB, feed mills can request a new user login by sending an email to myasc@asc-aqua.org
Further information on using MyASC can be found in the MyASC user-guide for feed mills.
