FAQ

FIRST HONEY introduces a new range of revolutionary First Aid products enriched with the natural bioactive properties of Medical-grade Manuka honey.

How does it work? Medical-grade Manuka honey has become widely used by healthcare professionals to treat and manage wounds. Found only in New Zealand, Manuka honey contains the presence of Methylglyoxal (MGO) a potent healing compound that does not naturally occur in any other honeys.

Why should I use it? Promote faster, better healing and prevent infection, without the use of artificial antibiotics.

What does Medical-grade Manuka honey mean? Manuka honey contains the presence of Methylglyoxal (MGO) which, along with other naturally occurring compounds, give it the potent properties to mend and nourish our skin. First Honey tests every batch of Manuka honey independently to ensure it meets our strict criteria for Medical-grade usage, with a high concentration of MGO and free of any contaminants or irritants that could interfere with the healing process. Finally, our First Honey bandages and ointment are sterilized to ensure they are safe to use on wounds and broken skin.

What makes First Honey different? The efficacy of the Manuka honey used in First Honey products is unparalleled due to our high standards for handling, placement of beehives, and manufacturing process. First Honey has a fully integrated ISO-accredited system to manage the honey from beehive to final product, ensuring that only the purest, highest-quality medical-grade Manuka honey is present in every bandage and tube.

Stop the overuse of antibiotics. According to the FDA, CDC, and World Health Organization, antibiotic resistance, which can result from the overuse of antibiotics, is one of the biggest problems facing medicine today. Many of the common, over-the-counter wound care ointments contain three antibiotics, yielding an exposure that’s equivalent to a prescription antibiotic pill given by a medical professional.
