An UTZ product claim is any on-pack or off-pack communication, with or without the use of the UTZ logo, that makes a direct or indirect reference to UTZ, and that is in relation to the offering or selling of a product. This includes any general reference to the sustainable or responsible sourcing of a product based on UTZ origin. UTZ reserves the right to take the final decision on whether or not something is considered a product claim.
