Key Benefits

8.58% behenic acid — verified by side-by-side lab comparison vs. 4 other origins

Behenic acid (C22:0) is the signature long-chain fatty acid that defines moringa oil's skin-conditioning and emollient properties. In a MORIFA-commissioned side-by-side lab analysis of moringa oils from five origins, TIMOR MORINGA® returned the highest behenic acid value of the panel: TIMOR MORINGA® Indonesia 8.58% / Thailand 6.10% / India 5.92% / Africa 4.90% / South Africa 4.53%. More behenic acid per unit means stronger emollient performance at the same inclusion rate. Full comparative COA available to qualified buyers on request.

Naturally present Vitamin A — uncommon in moringa oil from other origins

Independently measured at ~1,352 mcg per 100 g of oil. In the same side-by-side comparison, moringa oil from Thailand returned only ~6.38 mcg/100 g, the South African sample "not detected", and Indian/African samples reported no data. In cosmetic formulation, Vitamin A (retinol-active compounds) supports skin renewal, elasticity, and antioxidant performance — without additional fortification.

Cold-pressed mechanically — no solvents, no chemicals, no heat-damage

Extracted purely by mechanical pressure of the seed kernel. No hexane, no high-temperature distillation. The result: an oil that retains its natural nutrient profile, stability, and characteristic earthy-nutty aroma. Full production flowchart available on request.

Wildcrafted from Timor Island & surrounding East Nusa Tenggara islands

Single-origin, single-region sourcing from a unique microclimate — Indonesia's hottest, lowest-rainfall region. Wildcrafted moringa trees are not cut down or damaged during seed collection. Traceable from kernel to drum. Direct income for hundreds of farming families in partnership with Wahana Visi Indonesia (World Vision affiliate).

Food-grade as well as cosmetic-grade

Lab-tested free from heavy metals (Pb, Cd, Hg, As, Sn — all not detected) and passes microbiology standards (TPC ≤100 cfu/g, E. coli 0, Salmonella negative). The same oil is suitable for cosmetic, food (salad oil, premium edible), and softgel/nutraceutical applications.

Pleasant earthy-nutty aroma — natural, no fragrance added

Distinct from the harsher aroma profile of solvent-extracted moringa oils. For pure-oil finished products (face serum, scalp oil) where scent stays with the consumer all day, sensory quality matters as much as actives.

Money-back guarantee against adulteration

MORIFA offers a full 100% refund if any batch is proven adulterated by independent third-party lab. Backed by full COA, MSDS, TDS, and production flowchart documentation.

36-month shelf life

Properly stored, suitable for international freight, distributor stock cycles, and finished-product manufacturing pipelines. Moringa oil is one of nature's most stable plant oils — high antioxidant content allows long shelf life without preservatives.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes TIMOR MORINGA® different from Indian or African moringa oil?
Three measurable differences, verified by a MORIFA-commissioned side-by-side lab comparison of moringa oils from 5 origins: (1) 8.58% behenic acid in TIMOR MORINGA®, vs. 4.53%–6.10% in the other 4 samples — behenic acid is the signature emollient fatty acid that defines moringa oil's cosmetic performance; (2) ~1,352 mcg/100 g of Vitamin A in TIMOR MORINGA®, vs. ~6.38 mcg in the Thailand sample, "not detected" in South African, and no data for Indian/African; (3) distinctive earthy-nutty aroma that formulators describe as pleasant rather than harsh. The differences are driven by genetics and microclimate — Timor Island has Indonesia's hottest and lowest-rainfall environment, producing a different seed phenotype. Full side-by-side comparative COA available to qualified buyers on request.
Is TIMOR MORINGA® cosmetic-grade, food-grade, or both?
Both. The same oil passes cosmetic-grade requirements (INCI listed as Moringa Oleifera Seed Oil) and food-grade requirements (heavy metals not detected; microbiology results within food-safety standards). Buyers can use it for skin care, hair care, perfumery, massage oils, and for premium salad oil, finishing oil, or softgel/nutraceutical applications.
What is the recommended inclusion percentage in cosmetic formulations?
Per our TDS — skin care creams & milks 1–5%; lipsticks, lip balms, color cosmetics 5–10%; anti-aging products 3–6%; hair-care creams & conditioners 3–10%; body oils, massage oils 5–20%. Pure-oil products (face serum, scalp oil) use 100% as the single ingredient. Always validate inclusion levels with your formulator and target market regulations.
Is this oil refined, deodorized, or bleached?
No. TIMOR MORINGA® is virgin cold-pressed only — no refining, no deodorizing, no bleaching. The natural color (clear bright yellow) and natural earthy-nutty aroma are intrinsic to the oil. If your formulation requires refined/odorless oil, please discuss with our team before placing an order.
Can MORIFA supply under our own brand (private label / OEM)?
Yes. We offer both MORIFA / TIMOR MORINGA®-branded bulk supply and OEM/private-label production with custom packaging (bottles, jerrycans, or drums). Share your packaging spec and target market through the inquiry form and we'll provide a quotation. Note: TIMOR MORINGA® is our registered trademark — buyers who want to reference "Timor moringa oil" provenance in their own marketing should align language with our brand team.
What is the typical lead time for a 200 L drum order?
Production typically starts within 3 days of confirmed payment. For drum-quantity orders by sea freight, total delivery to most ports is 10–45 days depending on destination. Air-freight is available for urgent samples or smaller jerrycan orders.
Do you provide COA, MSDS, TDS, and other technical documents?
Yes — Certificate of Analysis (heavy metal, microbiology, fatty acid profile, pesticide residue), Technical Data Sheet, Material Safety Data Sheet, production flow chart, and certification documents are all available to qualified buyers. Request them through the inquiry form.
Where exactly is TIMOR MORINGA® sourced and processed?
Sourced: wildcrafted from Timor Island and its surrounding small islands in East Nusa Tenggara Province, Indonesia — a microclimate with the country's hottest and lowest-rainfall conditions. Seeds are collected without cutting or damaging trees. Processed: mechanically cold-pressed at our facility in Kupang, NTT. The single-origin sourcing also generates direct income for hundreds of impoverished farming families, in partnership with Wahana Visi Indonesia (a World Vision affiliate).
Do you ship to my country?
We currently export to 10+ countries across East Asia, Europe, North America, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and Oceania. Submit an inquiry with your destination and we'll confirm logistics and any documentation requirements. For cosmetic-ingredient import declarations, INCI/CAS/EC numbers are listed in the specs table.
