*Origine BiO is our internal label, guaranteeing that all certified products have already obtained a recognized organic certification. However, we have chosen not to depend on national labels, as we believe they often exercise an unfair monopoly. For us, these certifications do not faithfully reflect the reality of the markets that govern these products. In addition, labeling criteria vary from one country to another, creating imbalances between producers and distorting the notion of equality. With Origine BiO , we aim to offer a fairer and more consistent alternative.
So if you want an official organic quality certificate validated by an official body, this will not be possible.
