Organic Grade Chemicals

About Organic Grade Chemicals

Organic grade chemicals must comply with the USDA Organic requirements, and additionally be approved by an organic certifying agent. Specifically, the organic label requires that the product be made with at least 95% organic materials. It may contain up to 5% of conventionally grown materials or processing aids.

Chemically speaking, the word organic refers to compounds containing carbons and hydrogens. In the context of the USDA Organic certification, the word is adapted to describe specific agricultural practices which restrict the use of synthetic pesticides and fertilizers.

Organic chemicals are often perceived as having higher value, since they are subject to more stringent requirements. Lab Alley is pleased to offer you our line of USDA-certified organic products you can trust.
