At Organic Collagen Australia, we’re not only passionate about creating premium collagen products, but we’re also deeply committed to protecting our environment. That’s why we’re excited to introduce our new Deforestation Guardian logo, who represents our ongoing efforts to preserve forests and support sustainable farming practices.
You’ll start to see our Deforestation Guardian on our website and socials, and we want to share with you exactly what our little Koala friend stands for and why he’s so important to our mission!
Why a Koala?
Koalas are one of Australia’s most iconic animals, and they rely heavily on their forest habitats for survival. Unfortunately, deforestation and land clearing for farming and developments are a major threat to their homes, and the negative impact caused by this has caused three states of Australia have officially listed koalas as endangered.
By making the koala our Deforestation Guardian, we’re putting a spotlight on the importance of forest and land preservation, and how our certified organic practices help combat deforestation. Our goal is for the koala to serve as a symbol of environmental responsibility, reminding us—and our customers—of the crucial role we play in protecting natural habitats.
What Does the Deforestation Guardian Represent?
Our Deforestation Guardian logo represents more than just our famous koala — it embodies our commitment to sustainability and the environment. The logo is a seal of assurance that when you choose Organic Collagen Australia, you’re choosing a company that values ethical and environmentally friendly practices. Here’s how we’re doing our part to protect the planet:
Certified Organic Farming Standards
At OCA, we source our collagen exclusively from Australian-certified organic farms that rear pasture-raised cattle. Organic farming involves strict guidelines, including a firm prohibition on land clearing. To earn and maintain organic certification, our partner farms must demonstrate a commitment to preserving natural habitats—they have not cleared any land and are barred from doing so in the future. This ensures that the cattle farms we work with protect native forests and ecosystems, safeguarding wildlife habitats and supporting biodiversity.
Minimising Environmental Impact
Traditional collagen production often involves harmful chemicals and unsustainable farming methods, which can have a negative impact on the environment. But at Organic Collagen Australia, we’re proud to have pioneered the world’s first Certified Organic collagen, produced using innovative, eco-friendly technology that reduces waste and carbon emissions. By upcycling agricultural by-products into high-quality collagen, we’re lowering our environmental footprint while offering you a superior product.
Supporting Local Biodiversity
The organic cattle we source from are raised on farms that maintain the natural landscape, ensuring the land remains healthy and fertile. This commitment to biodiversity ensures that forests and wildlife are not disturbed by harmful farming practices, and it helps fight deforestation.
What Does This Mean for You?
When you see the Deforestation Guardian logo, you can be confident that you’re supporting a brand that’s as dedicated to sustainability as it is to your health. By choosing Organic Collagen Australia, you’re not only getting the purest, most bio-available collagen, but you’re also standing with us in the fight to protect our land and reduce deforestation.
Our Deforestation Guardian is a reminder that each purchase you make helps us take one more step towards a healthier planet. Together, we can preserve the habitats of animals like the koala and ensure that future generations can enjoy the beauty of our natural world.
Our Commitment to You and the Environment
At Organic Collagen Australia, we believe in doing things the right way—both for your health and for the planet. By using 100% Australian-sourced, certified organic collagen, produced through innovative, sustainable methods, we’re setting a new standard in the collagen industry.
