Organic Care
At organicspa we have made a conscious decision to put as much organic content in the range without jeopardizing the quality of the spa strength products. We have scanned the world for organic ingredients and purchased from Asia, South America, South Africa, Australia, Europe, etc. and where possible purchase from FAIR TRADE producers in underdeveloped communities.
This decision to maximise the organic content in our formulation has determined the organic certification class that we belong to, of containing over 70% organic certified ingredients. The three classes are as follows:
1. Under 70% organic content are to be described as non organics 2. Over 70% is described as containing certified organic ingredients 3. Over 95% organic content can be termed certified organic
The balance of the formula, not including water and minerals, MUST be of natural origin and therefore can not include ingredients such as normal preservatives eg. Parabens, Potassium sorbate, Sodium benzoate, etc. nor should the preservatives be hidden in terms like Parfum.
In the method of calculation water and minerals are not included. We have not sacrificed any quality in achieving this, just time and careful formulation work. We have chosen organic raw materials carefully and have still maintained medicinal levels of active properties reselected for functionality in our products.
As the labelling standards in Australia are open to all sorts of interpretation some of the label claims on products on the shelf here reflect anything but what is in them. You can just about call everything “organic” and get away with it except if you wish to export. This is where there are rules and laws which are policed by AQIS (Australian Quarantine and Inspection Service) to help protect Australia’s good name in overseas markets.
To export any products and claim it to be organic you must be a certified organic processor/grower and have your manufacturing facility and your formulations approved by an AQIS approved certifying body. There are numerous certifying bodies in Australia which can audit manufacturing facilities and approve products. All these organisations come under the control of AQIS a Federal Government Department which sets the Government legislation that everyone must abide by. There is no national standard for skin care or cosmetics so classification must be under the “National Food Standard for Organic and Bio-dynamic Produce”. 
organicspa has certification through the Organic Food Chain Pty Ltd and proudly bears their logo on all our products which gives you the confidence that you are buying a product that is truly organic by nature.
