Initiative Responsible Carnauba

Carnauba (Copernicia prunifera) is a species of palm tree endemic to the semi-arid region of North-eastern
Brazil, that grows wild in two high-biodiversity, endangered ecosystems: the Cerrado and the Caatinga. De
Monchy has imported carnauba wax for a very long time. Carnauba wax fits in with our philosophy of supplying
renewable natural products. Interested to read the case study of the IRC? Read here!
