Maydi's Frankincense resins and essential oils operation

The path from a Maydi Frankincense tree to the high quality essential oils for which we are famous follows a series of stages:

​

• Sourcing: Our farms are located throughout the Somaliland Highlands

• Tapping: We use tapping techniques that maximise quality whilst protecting the trees

• Harvesting: Performed by trained and registered local communities

• Seasoning: To prevent clumping of the resin tears

• Batch Testing: Batch samples are distilled and tested for quality

• Cleaning: Removal of foreign matter

• Sorting & Grading: Resin tears are graded by quality

• Distillation: Steam distillation of the resin in our facility in Dubai

• Lab testing: GCMS profiles analysed for each batch

• Packaging & Storage: Labelled by batch
