Peach Stone Powder

Peach kernel oil has become increasingly popular in recent years. Consequently, there has been a good availability of peach stones. Similar to apricots and plums, peaches have a large stone with an oily seed that is processed in local mills. While the stone is crushed to obtain the seed, the wooden shell is a by-product consisting mainly of cellulose and lignin. We are specialized in transforming this shell into high-grade powders.

Due to their neutral smell, peach stone powders are a versatile base material and additive. Similar to the oil of the seed, they have a slightly bitter taste. Human consumption should be limited to small quantities.

Peach Stone Granules in Personal Care

The medium brown to rust red color ensures a pleasant look of peach stone granules. Whether micronized into fine powders or sieved to a larger grain size, they are sought-after quality ingredients for the personal care industry.
Numerous product lines have been developed around the peach and its nutritive benefits (mainly antioxidants, vitamin A, C and E). In recent years, peach extracts and peach exfoliators have been added to smoothing and cleansing formulations. The relatively homogeneous shape of peach stone granules ensures a soft but effective natural skin abrasion without the risk of causing micro-lesions. We offer different micron size ranges (e.g. 0-300, 300-600μm) to fulfill different requirements with regard to texture, rheology, scrubbing effect and appearance). In small grain sizes, peach stone granules may contain a residue of the oily seed inside the kernel. The consequence is a creamy look and feel with thickening and texturizing properties. Formulation chemists take advantage of this effect in cremes, balms, shampoos and decorative cosmetics and use the bio ingredient as a replacement of synthetic microbeads.

Peach Stone Abrasives and Industrial Powders

The relatively high hardness (approx. 3.5 on a Mohs scale) make granulated peach kernels a suitable bio-based abrasive for polishing, cleaning and sandblasting applications. In contrast to walnut shells, peach stone powders do not contain any nut-related allergens, which makes them absolutely safe.
The irregular shape of peach stones also has a strong decorative effect. Crushed or raw, peach stones are recommended for use in landscaping, home and garden design, sustainable fashion and as insulation or construction materials.
