Product Overview

Product description

Bio-based tagua nut (INCI: Phytelephas aequatorialis Seed Powder) processed as a cosmetic-grade exfoliant for body care and other rinse-off and leave-on formulations. This sustainable, biodegradable seed powder is offered as a direct replacement for plastic microbeads and other non‑biodegradable scrubbing materials.

Key benefits

  • Natural, plant‑derived exfoliant with a neutral, mildly milky aroma and consistent white color (minimal shell/dust residues).
  • Rounded, smooth granules engineered to avoid sharp edges and reduce risk of micro‑injury while providing reliable mechanical exfoliation.
  • Low fine‑dust content for clean handling and predictable incorporation into creams, scrubs, soaps and similar formulations.
  • Precision sieving available — configurable mesh ranges to match desired exfoliation intensity and formulation requirements.
  • Biodegradable and compostable alternative that supports microplastic‑free product claims.

Typical applications

  • Body scrubs and exfoliating creams
  • Exfoliating soap bars and solid cleansers
  • Other cosmetic and personal care products requiring mechanical exfoliation

Supply and quality

  • Manufactured under processes that prioritize particle uniformity, low dust, and cosmetic suitability.
  • Available for sampling and bulk supply; small and large package sizes can be shipped internationally.
  • Technical specification sheets, certificate of analysis and particle size distributions are available on request to support formulation and regulatory review.

If you’d like specific mesh sizes, bulk pricing or a sample for lab testing, provide your target particle size and estimated volumes and the supplier can prepare a quotation and data package.
