'Natural' (NOT a certification)
Worldwide · Tier 4 Marketing
What it meansMexico's national organic mark, administered by SENASICA under the Ley de Productos Orgánicos (LPO).The UK's largest organic certifier. Standards are stricter than the UK government's baseline (which still mirrors EU 2018/848 post-Brexit). Recognised by the EU and USA under equivalence.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.
