It is my experience with this subject that any off site storage of organic product requires the off site storage to be certified as well.

It would depend on your Organic Certifier, but I'm pretty sure it would become NOR if stored at a non-certified location.

I would disagree, as long as the material is segregated and clearly marked physically as organic use there is nothing within the standard - this is the soil association standard that states that the site needs to be organic certified for storage purpose.

The requirements for storing Organic are changing to try to combat trading companies from selling non-organic as organic. We weren't certified but now must be to sell organic product, our contracted warehouse is approved under our certification to store our organics only, no one else's i.e. they can't use our certification to store organics for another company.
Basically, you may not need to now but guaranteed in the very near future you will. You should probably contact your certifier to see what they require
“Will this be on the test?" "Yeah, about the test. The test will measure whether you are an informed, engaged, and productive citizen of the world, and it will take place in schools and bars and hospitals and dorm rooms and in places of worship. You will be tested on first dates, in job interviews, while watching football, and while scrolling through your Twitter feed. The test will judge your ability to think about things other than celebrity marriages, whether you’ll be easily persuaded by empty political rhetoric, and whether you’ll be able to place your life and your community in a broader context. The test will last your entire life, and it will be comprised of the millions of decisions, that when taken together, make your life yours. And everything — EVERYTHING — will be on it.”

Everyone, thank you for your responses. We actually were able to get our hands on an addendum provided by the QAI that allows us to store an Organic ingredient in a non Organic facilty.
