Organic Consumers Association Recognizes Trillium Organics

For many years, there has been widespread confusion about what is and what is not organic in the personal care aisle. Unlike organic foods, many health and beauty products are falsely labeled as “organic.”

The Organic Consumers Association’s (OCA) “Coming Clean Campaign” has been working to clean up the “organic” cosmetics industry since 2004. The newest focus of the OCA is their “Organic Integrity Initiative;” the goal of which is to limit organic claims to personal care products that are certified to USDA organic standards.

The Organic Consumers Association identified brands who are making false claims, and companies who are properly certified under the USDA rule and who can therefore be trusted. Of the “26 Brands to Trust,” Trillium Organics is the only company that makes three of them. Certified Organic since 2000, Trillium Organics repackaged their brand in 2011 as OGbody by Trillium Organics. All products in the range now carry the USDA seal on the front panel. In 2010,Trillium launched OGbaby and OGmama, USDA Certified Organic body care for pregnancy through infancy. A steady voice for “Organic Integrity” since 1994, Trillium Organics is an industry leader in certified organic moisturizing technology.
