FAIRWILD
PROTECTING FRANKINCENSE TREES, HARVESTERS & THE PLANET
Our Frankincense is FairWild certified, meaning every step in wild harvesting this precious ingredient upholds ethical standards to protect biodiversity, communities, and the environment.
Frankincense Traceability
Using FairWild certified Frankincense in MAYDI+™ skincare ensures that harvesters can make a dignified livelihood from wild collection. We know the names of all our harvesters. All are paid fairly, and we make an additional contribution each year to fund a local Somaliland project. This means harvesters can remain in their rural area and don’t engage in activities that negatively impact the environment. Most importantly it means the ancient knowledge about these special Frankincense trees and sustainable harvesting practices will be preserved.
FAIRWILD CERTIFICATION
FairWild certification means that buyers - from ingredient traders up to consumers - know they are dealing with legally, ethically and sustainably harvested products. They are fair traded, meaning that the benefits are felt by all those involved, right down to the local communities harvesting the wild plants.
