17、terested parties to encourage participation in the manufacturing of personal care products using organically grown ingredients within the supply chain and to address issues on chemical processes, terminology, commercial availability, product composition, calculations, and labeling. Stakeholders invo
18、lved in developing the Standard included regulatory/public health, industry, trade associations, ingredient suppliers, general interest and product certifiers.The scope of this Standard includes, but is not limited to, rinse-off/leave-on personal care products, cosmetic products, oral care and perso
19、nal hygiene products. The National Organic Program (NOP) Regulations (Standards) rinse-off and leave-on personal care products; oral care products; and personal hygiene products. These products may be applied to or used externally on any part of the body (e.g., hair, face, hands, and feet). For the
20、purposes of this Standard, cosmetics are considered personal care products. This Standard does not ensure accuracy of claims specifying a product as “safer”, “better” or of a specific quality. Like USDA National Organic Program3 (NOP) regulations, this Standard includes allowances and restrictions o
21、n processes, agricultural ingredients, and methods of extraction based on the specific label claim to be made on the final product. The organic claim is a process claim, not a product claim. Testing will not necessarily determine whether or not a product is organic or meets this Standard. Product co
22、mpliance with this Standard does not ensure compliance with all regulatory requirements. 1.3 Alternate products or materials An ingredient of a personal care product varying in design from this Standards specification may still qualify under the Standard. While specific materials are stipulated in t
23、his Standard, products or components that incorporate alternate materials may be acceptable when it is verified that the product or component meets the applicable requirements of the Standard based on the products end use. 2017 NSF NSF/ANSI 305 2016 2 Reference documents 2.1 Normative references The

39、contains organic ingredients” of any product containing both organic and non-organic forms of the same ingredient specified as “organic” on the label is prohibited. 5 Production and handling requirements 5.1 Scope The producer or handler of a production, handling, or warehouse operation intending to
40、 sell, label, or represent agricultural products as “contains organic ingredients” shall conform to the applicable provisions of this Standard. Mechanical or biological methods, including but not limited to cooking, heating, drying, mixing, grinding, churning, separating, distilling, extracting, cut
41、ting, fermenting, preserving, dehydrating, freezing, chilling, or otherwise manufacturing, and the acts of packaging, jarring, or otherwise enclosing a product in a 2017 NSF NSF/ANSI 305 2016 container may be used to process an organically produced personal care product for the purpose of retarding
