What does UMF 16+ and MGO 570+ mean for this honey?

UMF (Unique Manuka Factor) and MGO (methylglyoxal) are independent measures used to describe manuka honey’s distinctive chemical profile. A UMF 16+ grade and MGO 570+ indicate a higher concentration of signature markers compared with standard honeys, reflecting a stronger manuka character.

• UMF 16+ confirms certified manuka-specific markers by an authorized scheme.
• MGO 570+ reports the measured methylglyoxal content per kilogram.
• Batch-tested in New Zealand laboratories for consistent potency.
• Suitable for users seeking a higher-strength manuka option.
