Australian Environmental Standard French Fried Box: Green Kangaroo Certification Guide

In the Australian market, consumers can quickly identify products that meet environmental and origin standards through the green kangaroo triangle logo on the packaging, and food packaging such as French fried boxes must strictly follow relevant certification rules.

Analysis of Core Certification Mark

AMAG Certification System

Basic logo: AMAG logo with golden kangaroo embedded in green triangle, managed by Australian Manufacturing Activities Limited (AMCL), suitable for non food and export food. This logo requires products to comply with the Australian Consumer Law and the AMAG Logo Code of Practice, but it should be noted that:

Australian Made: Only requires the product to undergo substantial processing in Australia (such as changing product properties), and the raw materials can come from overseas. For example, snow boots with imported soles but sewn uppers in Australia can obtain this certification.

Australian Grow ": requires 100% Australian cultivation of raw materials and the entire production process to be completed in Australia, commonly seen in fresh fruit and vegetable packaging.

New regulations on food origin

Since 2018, food sold domestically in Australia is required to be labeled with country of origin information, which consists of three parts:

Kangaroo icon: Following the basic design of the green triangle kangaroo.

Yellow proportion bar: visually displays the proportion of Australian raw materials, such as "70% Australian raw materials".

Text description: such as "Product of Australia" (100% Australian raw materials and mainly processed in Australia) or "Made in Australia" (mainly processed in Australia, raw material ratio needs to be indicated).

Extension of Environmental Protection and Sustainability

Packaging materials: Some brands combine green certification with environmental protection, using biodegradable or recycled materials to make French fried boxes and reduce plastic usage. For example, a certain brand uses bio based packaging made from sugarcane bagasse, which meets the "Australian Grow" raw material standards and reduces its carbon footprint.

Consumer Tip:

Be cautious of products labeled only as "Packaged in Australia", as all raw materials may be imported.

If non food products such as health supplements voluntarily participate in AMAG certification, the same logo will also be used, but the quality needs to be comprehensively judged based on the TGA (Australian Medicines Agency) batch number (such as AUST L/R).

Purchase suggestions

Prioritize choosing French fried boxes with AMAG logo and a high proportion of yellow in the proportion bar to ensure that the raw materials and processing meet Australian standards.

Pay attention to whether the packaging is labeled as recyclable or biodegradable, and support environmental practices.
