About | The Kiwi Manuka Honey company Limited was founded by a group of Maori(indigenous New Zealanders) to capitalise on the natural resources that grow abundantly on the Pacific East Coast of the North Island of New Zealand. Manuka honey is both a food and a health product. Over the past 20 years Dr Peter Molan of Waikato University has developed an anti-bnacterial measuremnt for manuka honey that helps determine its antibacterial potency. Dr Molan developed a measurement called the unique manuka factor(UMF). This determines manuka honey's antiseptic or phenol potency. The higher the UMF number the more potent it is for health purposes. |
