Plum Kernel

Plum Kernel – Bulk Supply for Oil, Nutraceutical & Cosmetic Industries

Product Overview

Plum Kernel (Prunus domestica), known as Erik Çekirdeği İçi, is a fruit seed valued for its oil yield, nutritional compounds, and functional uses. Rich in oleic acid, linoleic acid, vitamin E, and polyphenols, plum kernels are primarily processed into plum kernel oil, which is highly prized in cosmetic, nutraceutical, and personal care industries. With a mild marzipan-like aroma and nourishing qualities, plum kernel oil is widely used in anti-aging creams, serums, massage oils, and natural remedies.

At Tuna Sourcing, we supply premium plum kernels responsibly sourced from selected plum varieties and processed under the ISO 22000 Food Safety Management System. Available in whole, crushed, powdered, and oil-ready forms, our plum kernels serve the needs of oil manufacturers, supplement producers, and cosmetic brands worldwide.
