	KRAV (Sweden) Sweden · Tier 2 Trusted	Canada Organic Biologique Canada · Tier 1 Gold	? 'Natural' (NOT a certification) Worldwide · Tier 4 Marketing	Rainforest Alliance Global · Tier 3 Specialty
What it means	Sweden's leading organic mark. Built on the EU 2018/848 baseline plus stricter Swedish add-ons covering animal welfare, climate impact, and social conditions.	The federal Canadian organic standard, mandatory on any agricultural product sold across provincial borders or imported as 'organic'.	The word 'natural' on packaging is a marketing term, not a certification. In most jurisdictions there's no legal definition, no standard, and no inspection. A product labelled 'natural' can contain synthetic ingredients, pesticides, GMOs, and artificial flavours.	Sustainable-agriculture certification (post-2020 merged standard with UTZ). Covers environmental, social, and economic criteria. NOT an organic mark.
Scope	Food	Food	Several categories	Food
Established	1985	2009	—	1987
Inspection	Annual on-site by KRAV-accredited certifier	Annual on-site by CFIA-accredited certifier	None	Annual third-party audit (RA-accredited)

Guarantees	EU baseline organic PLUS Swedish-specific welfare and climate add-ons. Annual on-site inspection. Climate footprint accounting on KRAV-certified farms.	≥95% organic ingredients (single-ingredient products: 100%). No synthetic pesticides, no GMOs, no irradiation. Annual third-party certification under the Canada Organic Regime.	Nothing. It is not a certification and there is no body verifying anything.	Reduced (not eliminated) synthetic pesticide use, with bans on the most hazardous classes. Forest conservation requirements (no deforestation after the cut-off date). Worker welfare and community development requirements. Annual third-party audit.
Does NOT	Mark is trademark-protected.	Provincial sales-only operations are not legally required to carry it (though many do voluntarily).	Doesn't mean organic. Doesn't mean pesticide-free. Doesn't mean GMO-free. Doesn't mean ethically produced. Some markets (e.g. the US FDA on food, EU on cosmetics) place very limited restrictions on the word, but enforcement is weak.	Allows synthetic pesticides — does NOT meet any organic standard. Often confused with organic but it's a different programme.
