Haritaki (Terminalia Chebula) – Fruit, Extracts, Oils & Powders
Wholesale Haritaki in every format your formulation needs — sourced, processed, and shipped to Europe by TheWholesalerCo.
Haritaki (Terminalia chebula), known across India as Harad, Harade, and reverently in Ayurveda as the "King of Herbs," is one of the three foundational fruits of Triphala (alongside Amla and Bibhitaki) and arguably the single most revered rasayana in classical Indian medicine. Sanskrit texts describe Haritaki with seven traditional varieties, each suited to specific therapeutic purposes — a level of botanical reverence reserved for very few plants. Its dried fruit is exceptionally rich in hydrolyzable tannins (chebulagic acid, chebulinic acid, corilagin), gallic acid, ellagic acid, and other polyphenols, giving it one of the highest antioxidant profiles in the entire Ayurvedic pharmacopeia. Beyond classical Ayurveda, Haritaki has earned a place in modern nutraceuticals for digestive health, gut microbiome, oral care, and antioxidant support, and remains the cornerstone ingredient in formulations like Triphala Churna, Haritaki Khanda, and Abhayarishta. Whether you're developing a Triphala blend, a digestive-support capsule, an oral care formulation, or a tannin-standardized antioxidant supplement, TheWholesalerCo offers Haritaki in every format the modern formulator needs — from whole dried fruit to supercritical CO2 extracts.

Shop Haritaki by Form
Whole Haritaki (Dried Fruit)
Cleaned, sun-dried Terminalia chebula fruits — small, ribbed, oval-shaped, with the characteristic dark brown to black surface and astringent profile that defines authentic Harad. Available in multiple traditional grades, including the prized Harad Pili (yellow Haritaki, harvested before full ripening), Harad Kali (mature black Haritaki), and standard whole-fruit grades. Pitless (de-seeded) and with-seed variants both available. The preferred raw material for buyers who want to process in-house, prepare classical Triphala formulations, run extraction operations, or maintain full control over milling and standardization. Ideal for Ayurvedic manufacturers, contract extractors, and traditional formulators working directly from authenticated source material.
Haritaki Herbal Powder
Finely milled, mesh-graded Haritaki powder, available as whole-fruit powder (with seed) or pulp-only powder (de-seeded for higher tannin concentration). A workhorse ingredient for capsules, tablets, classical churnas, Triphala blends, oral care formulations, and traditional Ayurvedic preparations. Shelf-stable, cost-effective, and the simplest way to deliver Haritaki's full tannin and polyphenol spectrum in a single ingredient.
Haritaki Solvent-Based Extract
Concentrated powdered extract produced with food-grade solvents. Available in standardized ratios (4:1, 10:1) and, on request, standardized to total tannins, chebulagic acid, chebulinic acid, or gallic acid content — with 20%, 40%, 70% tannins being industry benchmarks for digestive-support and antioxidant nutraceuticals. The go-to form for supplement brands where label claims, assay values, and clinical dossier alignment matter.
Haritaki CO2 Extract
Supercritical CO2 extraction delivers a solvent-free, highly concentrated extract that preserves the full spectrum of heat-sensitive tannins, polyphenols, and the fruit's native phytochemistry. The premium choice for clean-label digestive-support supplements, high-end nutraceuticals, oral care formulations, and brands marketing "green extraction" on the front of the pack.
Haritaki Oil (Classical Taila)
Prepared in line with Ayurvedic texts — Haritaki decoction cooked into a base oil until the water phase evaporates. Traditionally used in classical hair oils, scalp therapies, oral-care oils (for gum and dental wellness), and external Ayurvedic formulations. Ideal for premium Ayurvedic brands building on traditional Harad therapies.
Haritaki Infused Oil
Whole fruit slowly infused into a carrier oil (sesame, coconut, jojoba, or custom base on request). A label-friendly option for brands building "infused in" narratives without solvent extraction complexity. Popular in scalp oils, hair-care blends, oral pulling oils, and specialty Ayurvedic topical formulations.
Haritaki Oil-Soluble Extract
A lipophilic, tannin-rich extract designed to disperse cleanly into oils, balms, butters, and anhydrous systems. If you're formulating an oral-care oil, a scalp balm, an astringent face oil, or an anhydrous system where you want Haritaki's hero actives in a controlled, ready-to-blend format, this is the form to choose.
Haritaki PG Extract (Propylene Glycol)
A liquid extract in a propylene glycol base — pre-solubilized and ready to blend into mouthwashes, toothpastes, scalp tonics, astringent toners, and water-based cosmetic systems. Saves formulation time and delivers uniform tannin distribution across aqueous and surfactant phases — particularly valuable in oral care, where Haritaki has a long-standing traditional reputation.
Haritaki Glycerine Extract
A liquid extract in vegetable glycerine — the clean-label, paraben-free, PG-free alternative. Perfect for natural and organic skincare brands, gentle astringent toners, baby-safe oral-care formulations, functional beverages, and water-based products where a soothing humectant carrier is a formulation bonus rather than a compromise.
