The standards under which the Aloe Vera is grown and manufactured vary greatly from one company to another. There are very few companies who actually grow and process their own products. Quality control greatly affects whether processed Aloe Vera retains the 200 active compounds in a fresh Aloe Vera leaf. Being vertically integrated as growers, processors and manufacturers ensures that Lily of the Desert's management can guarantee that its products meet or exceed the highest industry standard. The international Aloe Vera Science Council certifies Lily of the Desert Aloe Vera juice and gel for "Content and Purity". To achieve certification, the Company has to undergo a series of strict audits for both product and manufacturing procedures, before being granted the I.A.S.C seal of approval, which is the Aloe industry guarantee for purity and quality.
