Origin & Composition
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>t=”269″ data-end=”272″ />>Our Centella Asiatica powder is derived from the dried aerial parts (primarily leaves and stems) of Centella asiatica, a herb native to Southeast Asia—including Sri Lanka, India, Indonesia, Malaysia—and also found across tropical Africa and Australia.
We source our powder exclusively from Sri Lanka, preserving its traditional culinary and topical use heritage.
Appearance & Handling
This fine, earthy green‑brown powder exhibits a subtle, bitter, herbaceous aroma. Store it in a cool, dry place in an airtight container, and use within six months for best freshness and potency.
Traditional and Modern Uses

Centella Asiatica also has a longstanding role in topical dressing for minor wounds across traditional medicine in Asia and Europe.
