Natural Origin Index · ISO 16128 · 8,169 ingredients scored

Every ingredient,
measured not marketed.

We trace each fragment of a molecule back to its feedstock and score it 0 to 1. No claims, no adjectives — a mass fraction you can put on a label.

Glucose from starch is natural; the C9-11 alcohol is an odd-chain cut that natural fats lack, so it is a petrochemical oxo alcohol.

From feedstock to formula—a Natural Origin Index you can audit.
How it’s calculated

One number,
and the arithmetic behind it.

ISO 16128-2 defines the Natural Origin Index as the mass of the final molecule that comes from natural feedstocks divided by its total mass. Reagents and process aids don’t count — only the atoms that are still there.
