Tamanu Oil Sustainable, Environmentally Friendly


It is only after the fruit of the Tamanu Tree have fallen to the ground naturally that the nuts are collected and dried. Consequently, there is no negative impact on the tress themselves. The harvesting of the nuts and the subsequent cold pressing into Tamanu Oil is a source of income for the native Ni Vanuatu in a largely non-cash economy. This income is much needed to pay for their children's schooling and basic necessities such as rice.
