Our Standards
We are UMF Certified
The UMF® logo clearly states the quantity of unique Mānuka in our honey products. Our UMF membership numbers are 1069 and 2212.
The UMF® grading system has two components which are expressed on any licenced honey product:
1. The label claim that it is Mānuka
2. The number – this represents three chemical markers that indicate the content of this honey to ensure purity and quality.

We are MPI Assured
All honey labelled as Mānuka for export must be tested by an MPI-recognised laboratory to make sure it meets the new Mānuka honey definition. The Mānuka honey definition is made up of a combination of 5 attributes (4 chemicals from nectar and 1 DNA marker from Mānuka pollen). This allows industry to:
– separate Mānuka honey from other honey types
– identify it as either monofloral or multifloral Mānuka honey
