Sustainable fruit sourcing

In Colombia, Jagua trees are not used and cut down. Now farmers get good prices for unused fruits.
We ensure safe picking and leave 50% of the fruits to protect biodiversity.

Picking winners for the best stain

Only the best jagua fruits are selected and collected. Fresh jagua fruits are then quickly transported to the factory for further processing.

Fresh jagua fruits that are processed quickly will contain more genipin. This is how you get the best stain for temporary tattoos.

Extra income and fair payment

Did you know that local farmers didn’t use jagua fruits before? They simply cut down the trees as they did not see the economic potential.

We buy fresh fruits from local farmers and pay them a fair price per kilogram. If you use jaguahenna, you automatically support local incomes and help to preserve native trees.

Safe collection practices

Did you know that jagua trees grow up to 30 meters tall? And that fruit collection can be dangerous?

We believe that jagua suppliers should prove that their fruits are collected safely. We only buy fruits that are sourced from small trees or that are collected with climbing equipment. We already started working with smaller trees for easier and safer future collection

Preservation and reforestation

Jagua trees are native to Colombia. But the trees are not really used and cut down. Now farmers can get good prices for unused fruits.

Buying Jagua fruits helps to preserve existing trees. Because farmers now have an economic incentive to preserve jagua trees. Together, we are also studying and replanting Jagua trees.

Protecting biodiversity

The preservation and reforestation of jagua trees will help to reduce negative impacts related to climate change and will help to protect local biodiversity.

At least 50% of the fruits are left on the tree to protect biodiversity. Animals, birds, and insects can eat the fruits so that the trees can naturally disperse.

Safe and Certified Jagua Products

Our Jagua is worry-free as all products comply with EU cosmetic certifications (ec1223/2009). All Jagua products come with product documentation, never contain PPD or harmful ingredients, and are not tested on animals.

Selection of the best jagua fruits

Fresh jagua fruits are quickly transported to the factory. At the factory we do another selection round so that only the best fruits will be processed

These fruits contain more genipin. And this is how you get jagua with an intense dark blue / black temporary tattoo stain.

Quality checks for an ultra-dark stain

Our factory complies with good manufacturing standards. And our slow dehydration process will protect jagua’s staining capacity.

We have strict quality check at different steps of the manufacturing process so that any underperforming produce is removed. Strict quality checks are needed to get jagua with an intense stain.

UV-sterilization and cosmetic testing

After sieving into a super-fine powder, the product is UV-sterilized. Our batches are then rigorously tested in an external laboratory.

All results are documented in Certificate of Analyses (CoA) that you can access on our website. All these stringent inspections are necessary to bring you a safe and cosmetic compliant jagua.

Responsible Processing of Fresh Jagua Fruits

The Jagua fruits are processed in our professional and clean factory. The fruits are carefully handled by a team of 35 female, full-time employees. Superior stain and product quality and safety are our top-priority.

All these steps are needed to bring you premium quality jagua powder, juice, and gel. You can rely on us for temporary tattoo products with a superior stain for up to two weeks.
