Organic Palm Oil (Sustainable)

Organic Palm Oil (Sustainable)

Palm Fruit Oil, Elaeis guineensis, is produced from the pulp or fleshly portion of the fruit of the palm.

Used topically, palm oil is an excellent moisturizer and promotes soft, smooth skin. It helps restore hydration to dry skin, preventing further dryness by sealing in moisture. Suitable for use on sensitive skin, it effectively soothes areas afflicted by irritated skin conditions, such as eczema.

It makes a nice hard bar of soap that cleans well when used in combination with other oils such as coconut and olive oil. It lends hardness and smooth creamy bubbles to soap.

We use only Certified Sustainable palm oil.

 

Certified Sustainable

Certified sustainable by RSPO (The Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil) and Palm Done Right

Our USDA organic palm oil variety carries RSPO Certification, otherwise known as Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil, guaranteeing the sustainability and traceability of the palm oil production throughout the supply chain.

Palm Done Right initiative was created to prove that palm oil can be grown sustainably.It has RSPO-IP (Identity Preserved) certification which is one of four certification levels offered by the RSPO and carries the highest and strongest level of sustainable guarantee with traceability of each lot of palm oil back to the field of origin. With Identity Preserved sustainable palm oil, the entire batch of palm oil is from a single identifiable certified source and kept separate from all non-certified batches.

Palm Done Right presents the first fully integrated, 100% organic supply chain in the palm oil industry. Palm Done Right requires a fair labor certification, organic certification, Non-GMO Project Verification, and has the highest level of certification — Identity Preserved — offered by the Roundtable for Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO).

Sustainable certification provides consumers confidence in their purchasing decisions and use of palm oil with respect to the environment and society.

As the global demand for palm oil continues to increase, we believe that if both manufacturers and consumers demand Certified Sustainable palm oil, producers will grow Certified Sustainable palm oil. That is the only way to really protect our rainforests.

If there is no demand for sustainable palm oil, growers will continue their cheaper unsustainable practices, because no one is paying them for a sustainable product. (If you build it, they will come!)
