A New Natural. •100% organic cultivation.Using the cane itself as fertilizer and an innovative hot water fumigation process, D'Addario's reeds are chemical-free during all steps of production.From farm to processing, D'Addario's reeds meet and are certified to USDA organic certification standards.- USDA certified organic reeds feature a new paper reed holder, reducing 70,000 pounds of plastic waste each year.•The cane we use is 100% French-rooted, and the Argentinian cane is also made from French rhizomes.-Organic Reserve and Select Jazz Leads are just the first steps in organic products.By 2025, all lead products made from All Cane will be certified organic.- D'Addario uses a sophisticated proprietary blanking process to ensure that each lead is always in top condition right out of the box.[What is USDA Organic Certification?USDA-certified organic cane is grown and processed according to federal guidelines regarding soil quality, pest and weed control methods, and fertilizer use.In accordance with these guidelines, producers use natural materials as much as possible and use biologically based farming methods, both physically and mechanically.Cane that is certified USDA Organic must be certified as grown in soil free of prohibited substances for three years prior to harvest.Although D'Addario has been farming organically since shortly after acquiring Rico in 2004, achieving USDA organic certification is a years-long process.■Manufacturer Q&A [What is the difference between organic certified leads?] A. Certified organic cane is manufactured from cane grown and processed using organic farming methods specified by the USDA.The D'Addario reed you receive is a natural reed that has not been treated with synthetic fertilizers or pesticides.[Why are only the Reseve series and Select Jazz series certified organic?] A. Now that the cane grown at D'Addario's farm is USDA organic certified, we plan to gradually change the packaging so that this certification is clearly visible.In addition to changing the packaging, we plan to dramatically reduce the amount of plastic contained in the packaging by switching from the plastic lead holders used up until now to paper ones.Although all packaging and reed holder changes require some time and care, we plan to gradually transition all cane reeds to new packaging and paper reed holders over the next few years.[Is it the same quality as the previous reed, and can I play it immediately after opening the box?] A. There is no change in the quality of Daddario's leads.We have actually been implementing the organic cane growing and manufacturing process for many years.[Why change from plastic reed holders to paper reed holders?] A. At D'Addario, we also believe in reducing our impact on the environment and setting industry-leading standards for sustainability.I think this is important for instrumentalists as well.Among the many comments we receive from our customers, there are also requests to move away from plastic lead sleeves.[What is the protection performance of paper lead holders?] A. Paper lead holders have been the industry standard for decades.It is important that your leads reach you in perfect condition.To this end, we believe it is important that paper reed holders are packaged in recyclable wrapping paper to ensure that the reeds are protected from rapid changes in humidity and environmental conditions during transportation and storage on music store shelves around the world.[Can I store the reed in a paper reed holder after use?] A. To prevent warping, we do not recommend storing used leads in plastic or paper lead holders.We recommend using a D'Addario reed case or reed guard for storage.This product is a product from a distributor in Japan.Please note that parallel import products cannot be guaranteed by an agency.
