TS ISO 22095/Amd 1

TS ISO 22095/Amd 1 is an amendment record for the standard covering chain of custody, general terminology and models. This title points to the concepts used to describe how materials, products and related claims are tracked through a supply chain; however, because the official scope text is not available for this page, the exact clauses changed by the amendment cannot be verified here. In general technical terms, chain of custody is about maintaining documented continuity of identity and control from one stage to the next.

What chain of custody models describe

Chain of custody systems connect the physical flow of goods with the claim made about them. Depending on the context, this may be handled through segregation, mass balance, percentage control or other recognized model approaches. The phrase “general terminology” indicates a shared vocabulary so that suppliers, manufacturers, logistics providers and certification actors use the same concepts consistently and keep records that can be compared and audited in a common way.

What Amendment 1 means in practice

An amendment does not redefine the whole parent standard on its own; it typically updates selected terms, definitions or aligned references. For that reason, TS ISO 22095/Amd 1 is mainly relevant to organisations that need the current wording of the terminology and model framework. Chain of custody is widely used as a foundation for traceability in sustainable sourcing, recycled-content claims, certified material flows and similar documented supply-chain arrangements.

• This record concerns the conceptual framework for chain of custody tracking.
• General terminology helps keep meanings consistent across organisations and records.
• Models describe different ways to track product flow and link claims to that flow.
• Amendment 1 should be read as an update to the parent standard, not as a complete standalone application standard.
