Why Our PURITI Standards Are Truly Unmatched

At PURITI, our focus is on crafting Mānuka honey of exceptional quality, purity, and potency. What makes us stand out from the major competition is our commitment to maintaining a minimum concentration of methylglyoxal (MGO) for UMF™ certification, surpassing the requirements of other leading brands and the UMF™ certification standard itself.

PURITI’s Benchmark For UMF™ Certification Are Higher Than What UMF™ Ask For

We take pride in producing Mānuka honey of exceptionally high potency. This is seen through our higher baseline MGO concentration levels. At PURITI, we surpass our competitors by maintaining higher minimum MGO concentrations for most of our UMF™-certified products. For instance, ourUMF™ 15+ certified honey has a minimum MGO concentration of 550mg/kg, while other brands only require 514mg/kg for UMF™ certification.

Moreover, PURITI guarantees authentic and traceable honey by following strict standards and protocols established by the Ministry of Primary Industries (MPI). Each batch of our premium Mānuka honey undergoes testing for MGO levels, pollen count, and other markers to ensure that it meets our brand's supremely high standards.
