Across Melanesia, people have been selecting desirable trees, moving seedlings into village gardens and carrying them between islands for thousands of years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Nangai trees growing today are part of that long human story, shaped by generations of Pacific families who recognised valued trees and carried them forward.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOrigins \u0026amp; Ethnobotanical History\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAcross Vanuatu, Solomon Islands and Papua New Guinea, \u003cem\u003eCanarium indicum\u003c\/em\u003e has long been valued primarily as a food tree. Its edible nuts are an established part of local food systems, while the trees themselves have been grown within village gardens and mixed agroforestry systems where they also provide useful shade and timber.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eToday, research and commercial development are helping expand what can be made from this traditional Pacific crop. Work on nut quality, processing and market access has created new opportunities for higher value products, including Nangai Oil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat gives Nangai Oil a deeper provenance than a generic cosmetic oil. It comes from a Pacific tree crop with a long history of food use, cultivation and smallholder value.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSourcing \u0026amp; Production\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn Vanuatu, local village families collect fully ripened Nangai nuts after they fall naturally from the trees. The nuts are then cured and dried over several weeks before being hand cracked to release the kernels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe prepared kernels are cold pressed in Port Vila to produce the oil. Sacred Plants Australia receives the Nangai Oil in 100 mL supplier bottles and carefully repackages it into our 10 mL cobalt blue glass dropper bottles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApply a small amount to the face or body and massage gently into the skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor hair, smooth a small amount through the lengths or ends. Begin with only a few drops and add more as needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor external use only. Patch test before first use and discontinue use if irritation occurs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eStorage \u0026amp; Care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStore tightly closed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNangai Oil may naturally thicken in cooler conditions.
