From La Ceiba
to your formulation.
There is one true source of Elaeis oleifera. Here is where it grows, who harvests it, and how every shipment stays traceable end to end.
La Ceiba, Honduras.
The American oil palm grows wild in the rainforests of La Ceiba — the Atlántida region on Honduras's northern coast. It does not grow in the places most “batana” is shipped from. Geography is the first proof of authenticity.
The journey of a single shipment.
Five documented stages, harvest to customer. Each one leaves a record.
Harvest
Miskito harvesters gather ripe fruit from wild Elaeis oleifera in La Ceiba.
Pressing
Fruit is processed and cold-pressed into unrefined, virgin oil — deep red-brown.
Lab test
GC-MS and FTIR confirm authenticity and composition. A COA is issued for the batch.
Warehouse
Drums move to a bonded warehouse with documented chain-of-custody.
Customer
Shipped to your lab or facility — COA, MSDS, and origin certificate included.
