Can I make ‘100% natural’ claims for products containing orris absolute?
Yes. Orris absolute is a 100% natural botanical extract, so '100% natural' claims are supported for the ingredient itself. For finished-product claims, keep these points in mind:
- Natural claim: supported by our naturalness statement (no synthetic reagents, no synthetic irone)
- Non-GMO: supported — cultivated iris is not genetically modified
- Vegan: supported — no animal-derived inputs
- Organic claim: only with certified-organic lots (pre-order program)
- 'Natural fragrance' labeling in EU: must comply with the natural ingredient definition in your standard (ISO 16128 / Cosmos)
Claim Support
| Claim | Document |
|---|---|
| 100% natural | Naturalness statement + GC-MS |
| Non-GMO | Cultivation declaration |
| Vegan | Botanical purity statement |
| Organic | Certified lot (pre-order) |
- Avoid 'therapeutic' or medical claims — unsupported claims risk regulatory action
- Allergen declaration still applies to natural claims in the EU
Send us your intended claim wording and we will confirm which documents support it.
