The USDA National Organic Program does not directly regulate substances not consumed by humans or animals. For these substances, our Program provides certification / approval for use in organic production. Our Program follows the NOP Regulations and is ISO 65 accredited.
THE PROCESS:

Third: After a final review of the application and inspection report, together with payment of applicable fees, Organic Certifiers will issue a Certificate that the product is approved for use in organic production.
