What it means	Australia's largest organic certifier, accredited under the Australian National Standard for Organic and Bio-Dynamic Produce. The bud-and-leaf logo is the most-seen organic mark in Australian supermarkets.	France's national organic mark, owned by the Ministry of Agriculture. Sits alongside the EU Leaf on virtually all French organic packaging.	Norway's only accredited organic certifier. The Ø-merket is required on any food sold as 'økologisk' in Norway. Operates to EU 2018/848 equivalence plus Norwegian add-ons.	The strictest, most widely-recognised standard for organic textiles. Covers the full supply chain from organic fibre to finished garment, with environmental AND social criteria.

Norwegian-specific welfare standards (esp. for cold-climate livestock).	≥70% certified-organic natural fibre (the 'organic' grade requires ≥95%).

Social standards based on ILO core conventions (no child labour, no forced labour, fair wages, safe workplace). Annual on-site inspection by IOAS-accredited certifier.
Does NOT	Australia has no single mandatory organic mark — ACO is the dominant one, but NASAA, OFC, and others also certify.	Same standard as the EU Leaf — AB is the brand consumers recognise, not a stricter rule.	Norway is outside the EU — the Ø is recognised under EEA equivalence, not direct EU equivalence.	Doesn't cover non-textile components (zips, buttons, prints) beyond the chemical-restriction list.
