DOCUMENTATION

Mānuka Honey COA.

A practical guide to Certificates of Analysis for bulk New Zealand mānuka honey and commercial product development.

THE BUYER VIEW

Start with the specification.

A Certificate of Analysis (COA) is a batch-specific document reporting analytical results against specified parameters. The exact tests and fields required depend on the product, customer specification and destination market.

COMMERCIAL CONTEXT

What matters in practice.

A useful commercial review starts by matching the COA to the product specification: batch or lot identification, relevant analytical results, units, test basis, laboratory information and dates where applicable. The COA should be considered alongside regulatory and market documentation rather than as a substitute for it.
