Praan Naturals rolled out Tagua Seed Powder (INCI: Phytelephas Aequatorialis (Tagua) Seed Powder) as a key ingredient within its growing selection of 500 certified organic and conventional natural ingredients.
Known also as vegetable ivory, tagua seeds are prized as a botanical alternative to ivory due to their material strength and impressive ivory-like texture. When ground into a fine powder, tagua seeds make a pure white, plant-based exfoliant that is perfectly suited for the finest cleansers and exfoliating products.
Sourced from Ecuador, Praan Naturals Tagua Seed Powder is an environmentally responsible and natural alternative to synthetic exfoliants and whitening agents. It is produced using only 100% pure, ethically harvested tagua seeds. The powder contains no added fillers or other materials.
“Praan Naturals Tagua Seed Powder is a derivative (secondary) product made from tagua seed pieces that remain after Ecuadorian community artisans produce buttons and ornamental objects. Grinding these remaining pieces into Tagua Seed Powder ensures that none of the beneficial seed material goes to waste.” said Anáil Moon Devī, Chief Executive Officer of Praan Naturals.
Praan Naturals’ manufacturing partner rigorously supports local indigenous communities, engages in fair trade, and they are FairWild certified. This certification ensures that the seeds are legally, ethically and sustainably collected with full accountability. They have also received approvals through COSMOS and NATRUE.
