Kosher certification is not legally mandatory for every product, but in international markets—especially USA, Europe, Israel, Canada, and Australia—many buyers require Kosher-certified products. For several categories, Kosher certification becomes compulsory or highly recommended for smooth export.

• Essential Oils & Aromatic Oils (Menthol, Peppermint, Eucalyptus, Lemongrass, Pine Oil)
