Shea Butter – Grade A/Unrefined (1 MT/1000 kg)

Why Buy Shea Butter (1 MT/1000 kg)?

Shea butter, derived from the nuts of the shea tree (Vitellaria paradoxa), is a versatile and natural product cherished for its moisturizing and healing properties. It has been used for centuries in Africa for skin and hair care and as a food source. Shea butter’s popularity has grown worldwide due to its numerous benefits, including its rich content of vitamins A, E, and F, essential fatty acids, and natural UV protection. Its versatility makes it suitable for various applications, from cosmetics to culinary uses.

Shea butter offers a natural alternative to synthetic ingredients in skincare and haircare products. It is a highly moisturizing and emollient substance that can help soothe dry skin, reduce inflammation, and promote wound healing. Moreover, shea butter is a sustainable and eco-friendly choice, as it is harvested from a renewable source and often produced using traditional methods that support local communities in Africa.

Side Effects of Shea Butter

Shea butter is generally considered safe for most people, but some may experience allergic reactions or sensitivities. These reactions can include redness, itching, or a rash, particularly for individuals with nut allergies, as shea butter is derived from the nut of the shea tree. It is advisable to perform a patch test before using shea butter extensively on the skin or hair.

While rare, overuse of shea butter can lead to clogged pores and breakouts, especially in individuals with oily or acne-prone skin. It is important to use shea butter in moderation and choose the right formulation (e.g., raw, refined, or combined with other ingredients) that suits your skin type and needs.

International Price of Shea Butter Per Metric Ton

The unit price ($ per kg) of Grade A Shea Butter in the international market depends on various factors, including:

• Grade and processing level (higher processing often leads to higher prices)

• Order quantity (bulk orders typically reduce cost per ton)
• Harvest season (prices are higher off-season)
• Freight and haulage costs
• Markup percentage
• Import duties
