Organic foods (e.g. vegetables, herbs, fruit) and products (e.g. health and beauty care, household products, food items) are grown/prepared/processed/packaged without the use of synthetic chemicals, pesticides, fertilisers, or GMOs (genetically modified organisms).

What are certified organics?

• Good for the soil
  Organic systems rely on a modern and scientific understanding of ecology and soil science, while also depending on traditional methods of crop rotation to ensure fertility, and weed and pest control.

• Good for the environment
  Organic systems aim to reduce dependence on non-renewable resources. Organic production aims for sustainability, with best management of the environment and wildlife as a priority.

• Good for people
  Organic-based ingredients have been shown in a number of studies to contain more vitamins, nutrients and cancer-fighting antioxidants than non-organic ingredients.

• No synthetic chemicals
  Organic systems prohibit the use of artificial chemicals, pesticides and fertilisers.

• No genetically modified organisms (GMOs)
  Certified organic products are produced without GMOs, which are prohibited in the standards for organic food and farming.
