How strength is graded

MGO 200+ for general wound maintenance. MGO 300+ for more active wound management.

Up to MGO 200

Skin care, consumer wellness, lozenges and syrups.

MGO 200+

General wound maintenance — the everyday MGH™ tier.

MGO 300+

More active wound management — our higher-strength tier.

FDA / TGA-registered medical devices must hold standardised MGO content batch to batch — a guarantee unregistered consumer honey does not provide.

Sources & methodology

A synthesis across multiple analyst houses — not a single republished report.

The figures on this page are a paraphrased synthesis of publicly available analyst coverage of the medical-grade honey category. Estimates differ between firms; numbers here represent the central range across published sources, not the exact figures of any one provider. Where a single house is the outlier, the consensus is preferred.

Editorial note. All figures, tables and commentary on this page are paraphrased from publicly available sources and represent independent editorial synthesis.
