1. Introduction to Gleditsia Extract Powder
Table of Contents
Gleditsia Fruit (known as Quả Bồ Kết in Vietnam) has been used for centuries in Southeast Asia as a natural “shampoo tree.” The extract is derived from the dried pods of the Gleditsia fera tree. Unlike regular ground powder, our Extract Powder is produced through a concentrated water-extraction and spray-drying process to isolate the high content of Natural Saponins.
At Vinahugo, we offer a highly soluble Gleditsia extract that provides natural foaming, cleansing, and medicinal properties. It is the perfect sustainable, biodegradable alternative to synthetic sulfates (SLS/SLES) in modern “Green Beauty” and “No-poo” (no shampoo) formulations.
