What is UMF?

UMF® is the registered trademark that licensed packers can put on their Manuka honey. The use of the trademark, guarantees the integrity of the honey products. There is only a small percentage of Manuka honey in New Zealand each year that has the Unique Manuka Factor. Manuka or Tea Tree (Leptospermum scoparium), can only be found in New Zealand.

UMF®

The UMF® guarantees that the honey you are purchasing has Non Peroxide Activity or NPA.

AS UMF® honey is strictly controlled and audited in a large number of countries worldwide including China, the consumer knows the honey is true to label.

Both UMF® and ordinary Manuka honey is 100% totally natural as produced by the honey bees. There are no additives of any sort in our AENA Honey range. Like all honey, all Manuka honey has some anti-bacteria properties.. UMF® Manuka honey however, has a natural extra something that is effective against a range of bacteria. This natural extra property is stable to both light and heat, unlike the more common anti-bacterial property of Manuka honey. It is this extra natural ingredient which makes the UMF® Manuka honey so effective.
