	NATRUE European Union · Tier 2 Trusted	EU Ecolabel (Flower) European Union · Tier 3 Specialty	Orgánico SAGARPA / SENASICA (Mexico) Mexico · Tier 1 Gold	? 'Natural' (NOT a certification) Worldwide · Tier 4 Marketing
What it means	An EU-based natural-and-organic cosmetics certification. Three grades: Natural, Natural with Organic portion, and Organic.	The European Commission's voluntary environmental label. Covers cleaning products, paper, textiles, electronics, accommodation services. NOT an organic mark.	Mexico's national organic mark, administered by SENASICA under the Ley de Productos Orgánicos (LPO).	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.

Does NOT	Mark is trademark-protected.	Doesn't apply to food. Doesn't mean organic.	USDA equivalence is granted product-by-product, not blanket.	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.
