Use of Logo

Accreditation and certification provide trust in the market place and this is often transmitted through use of logos and marks or statements which may be on products, advertising, web sites and certificates.

Inappropriate or deliberate misuse of such logos and language can undermine this so we are providing here a central location of resources to inform producers, traders and consumers on their proper use.

We invite anyone with any concerns on use of logos within the scope of activity of the UKAC to contact us with any concerns.

Marks are used at different levels; business to business and business to consumer.
