Native to the tropical and subtropical coastal regions of Madagascar, Calophyllum, also known as Foraha, is a tree belonging to the Calophyllaceae family. Its seeds produce a vegetable oil valued for its natural characteristics and its versatility in cosmetic applications.
For professionals, Madagascar Calophyllum vegetable oil is a natural botanical ingredient that can be incorporated into a wide range of finished products, including skin care products, massage oils, balms and other cosmetic preparations.
A botanical ingredient from Madagascar
The quality of a vegetable oil starts with the quality of the seeds and how they are handled after harvesting.
At Aromeya, Calophyllum seeds undergo several careful preparation stages before extraction, including drying, sorting and cleaning. These steps allow us to select and properly prepare the raw material before pressing.
Careful preparation is essential to obtain a consistent oil suitable for professional applications and for companies looking for a natural botanical ingredient to incorporate into their own formulations.
A carefully controlled extraction process
The oil is obtained through progressive mechanical pressing using a screw press. Particular attention is given to the process in order to limit excessive heat during pressing.
Once the crude oil has been extracted, it undergoes a settling phase, followed by filtration. These steps help remove naturally occurring particles and impurities resulting from the pressing process, providing a cleaner and more homogeneous oil.
For professional applications, controlling each stage of production is essential to obtaining a vegetable oil with characteristics suitable for further use in different formulations.
Applications of Calophyllum vegetable oil
Calophyllum vegetable oil is particularly appreciated for its use in skin care and massage preparations.
It can be incorporated into:
- skin care and massage oils;
- balms and targeted care products;
- formulations designed for dry or sensitive skin;
- body care products;
- cosmetic preparations intended to improve the appearance and comfort of the skin.
Its use naturally depends on the type of finished product, the level of incorporation and the manufacturer’s formulation requirements.
Calophyllum also stands out through its botanical identity and Madagascan origin, offering brands and manufacturers the opportunity to develop products based on a distinctive plant ingredient from Madagascar.
A vegetable oil for professional use
At Aromeya, Calophyllum vegetable oil is supplied as a raw botanical ingredient intended for further processing, rather than as a finished consumer product.
It is suitable for a range of professional customers, including:
- cosmetic manufacturers;
- laboratories and formulation companies;
- brands developing natural skin care ranges;
- raw material distributors;
- companies looking for vegetable oils of Madagascan origin.
The oil can be supplied in bulk, according to the customer’s requirements and production needs.
Supporting a local value chain
The production of Calophyllum vegetable oil also contributes to economic activity around the collection and processing of local botanical resources.
The valorization of seeds collected in Madagascar helps integrate local collectors and other stakeholders into a value chain supplying professional markets internationally.
For Aromeya, exporting Madagascan vegetable oils is not only about supplying a botanical ingredient. It is also about adding value to local resources and supporting the know-how associated with their transformation.
