Kiwiherb - Certified Organic Herbal Care

Kiwiherb is a New Zealand–based herbal health brand established in 2000, built on the idea of combining modern science with proven traditional herbal medicine. The company specialises in creating 100% natural, premium-quality herbal products for the whole family, with a strong focus on safe, effective formulations for children.

Expert Formulation & Practitioner-Led Development

Every Kiwiherb product is developed by a team of passionate medical herbalists and pharmacists. This includes founder Phil Rasmussen, whose experience spans more than 28 years of clinical herbal practice, along with 10 years as a pharmacist and postgraduate research in pharmacology.

Phil’s lifelong interest in plants, influenced by his upbringing in Tokomaru Bay and Gisborne, continues to shape the brand’s commitment to high-quality herbal remedies.

New Zealand Native Herbs & Rongoa Maori Wisdom

A defining feature of Kiwiherb is its respect for Rongoa Maori, the traditional Maori herbal system. The brand incorporates a range of sustainably sourced native plants that have long been used for their therapeutic actions.

These include:

• Manuka
• Koromiko
• Kawakawa
• Houhere (Hoheria)
• Horopito
• Poroporo
• Totara
• Tanekaha

These herbs lend each product a unique blend of natural properties rooted in time-honoured practices.

Certified Organic Ingredients & Sustainable Sourcing

Kiwiherb places strong emphasis on organic quality. Wherever possible, the company uses certified organic, New Zealand-grown herbs.
Products often carry BioGro certification, a respected independent organic standard in New Zealand. This reflects a commitment to:

• natural, non-irradiated ingredients
• sustainable farming methods
• ethical sourcing

The brand also ensures its formulations remain free from synthetic chemicals, artificial additives, and GMOs.

Quality Assurance Through GMP Manufacturing

All Kiwiherb products are made in a Medsafe-accredited GMP facility, where comprehensive testing and quality checks take place.
These standards include:

• strict monitoring of raw materials
• verification of each ingredient
