Fresh Manila Elemi Resin from Canarium Ovatum (Pili) |
Manila Elemi is the name given to resinous tree sap from a variety of canarium species*. Elemi is an oleoresin commonly steam distilled for its fragrant essential oil. This oil is commonly used in cosmetics (anti-aging), aromatherapy and luxury perfumery, while the processed resin is used in cosmetics, varnishes/lacquers, printing inks.
Sustainable Elemi
Our elemi resin comes only from canarium ovatum or pili trees in Bicol. The sticky white resin is sustainably harvested from precious fruit-bearing pili trees, not resulting in overtapping or tree deaths that is common with some species.
*other species tapped for elemi include but are not limited to canarium luzonicum (piling liitan), canarium commune, canarium indicum
