Processing and Supply

Our directly-sourced Styrax Benzoin Gum Sumatra is of the highest quality.

The resin is collected using a traditional Sumatran method of incision to the Styrax Benzoin tree, using traditional tools.

The resin is a creamy white fluid which begins to flow out of these cuts and hardens into darker yellow, teardrop-shaped lumps on the bark - these are collected about 3-4 months after tapping.

Once harvested, the gum resin is cleaned, sorted and graded ready for our direct supply.
Goodchild Global Ltd supplies only the highest quality Grade 1 Benzoin Gum Sumatra.

We don't supply 'Block Benzoin', an inferior form of Benzoin typically found within the marketplace - which consists of Benzoin Gum tears packed within a Damar Gum resin.

Our Benzoin Gum is 100% pure, Grade 1 resin tears packed in white fabric layers, shipped in wooden boxes.

Our supply capability is up to five metric tonnes per month, and growing.
