About Aloe Team

We make pure aloe vera products backed by evidence, not hype.

Our Mission

Create the most transparent, quality-driven aloe vera brand—where every claim is measurable and every batch is tested.

The aloe vera market is full of miracle claims, diluted products, and vague quality standards. We started Aloe Team because we believed people deserved better:

  • Evidence over marketing: We cite research, not influencers
  • Transparency over secrecy: We share test results, processing methods, and sourcing details
  • Quality over profit: We use expensive cold-pressing because it works, not because it's easy

Our Principles

1. Evidence First

We don't claim aloe cures diseases. We focus on what dermatological and clinical research actually demonstrates:

  • Anti-inflammatory polysaccharides (acemannan)
  • Skin barrier support
  • Moisturizing and soothing properties
  • Safe use for minor burns and irritation

When we make a claim, we can back it with peer-reviewed research.

2. Complete Transparency

Every batch of Aloe Team products includes:

  • Unique batch number
  • Harvest and processing dates
  • Farm source identification
  • Aloin test results (available upon request)
  • Acemannan content verification

We have nothing to hide, so we hide nothing.

3. Purity Without Compromise

Our standard: 99.8% pure Aloe barbadensis miller gel.

The remaining 0.2% is only natural preservatives and pH adjustment—nothing synthetic, no fillers, no thickeners to fake texture.

4. Processing That Preserves

We use cold-pressing (below 25°C) exclusively because heat destroys the polysaccharides that make aloe effective.

It's more expensive and logistically challenging, but it's the right way to preserve bioactivity.

5. Safety Through Testing

Every batch undergoes:

  • HPLC aloin testing (<0.1 ppm requirement)
  • Polysaccharide content analysis
  • Microbial safety screening
  • Heavy metal testing
  • pH verification

We test because your skin deserves products that are safe and effective.

Our Sourcing

Where Our Aloe Comes From

We source Aloe barbadensis miller exclusively from certified organic farms in regions with ideal growing conditions:

  • Climate requirements: Warm, semi-arid regions with well-draining soil
  • Plant maturity: Only leaves from plants 3+ years old (higher polysaccharide content)
  • Organic certification: No synthetic pesticides or fertilizers
  • Soil testing: Regular screening for heavy metals and contaminants

Sustainable Harvesting

We work with farms that practice:

  • Selective cutting: Only outer mature leaves, preserving plant health
  • Rotation: Plants rest 6-8 weeks between harvests
  • Water conservation: Drip irrigation and rainwater collection
  • Fair labor: Living wages and safe working conditions for harvesters

Our Process

Hour 0

Harvest

Mature leaves hand-cut in early morning (cooler temps preserve gel integrity)

Hours 0-2

Transport

Climate-controlled vehicles maintain <25°C to prevent oxidation

Hours 2-4

Washing & Filleting

Triple-washed with purified water, hand-filleted to separate inner gel from latex layer

Hours 4-8

Cold-Pressing

Mechanical extraction at <25°C, activated charcoal filtration for aloin removal

Hours 8-12

Stabilization

Natural preservatives and antioxidants added at room temperature

Hours 12-18

Testing

Aloin content, acemannan levels, pH, microbial safety all verified

Hours 18-24

Bottling

Sterile packaging, batch coding, quality seal

Total time from harvest to bottle: <24 hours

What We Stand For

Honesty in Marketing

We don't exaggerate. Aloe vera is a supportive ingredient, not a miracle cure. We're honest about what it can and can't do.

Accessible Science

We translate research into plain language. You shouldn't need a PhD to understand why aloin-free processing matters.

Customer Education

We'd rather you buy the right product (even if it's not ours) than the wrong one. That's why we publish detailed buying guides.

Environmental Responsibility

Sustainable farming, recyclable packaging (#2 HDPE), minimal shipping waste, carbon-offset shipping options.

Our Commitment to You

30-Day Satisfaction Guarantee

If our aloe doesn't meet your expectations, return it for a full refund. No questions asked.

Batch Certificate Availability

Email us your batch number, and we'll send you the full test results: aloin content, acemannan levels, microbial safety, heavy metals.

Responsive Support

Questions about ingredients, usage, or skin concerns? We respond to every email within 24 hours (usually much faster).

Continuous Improvement

We track emerging research on aloe vera and adjust our standards accordingly. Science evolves, and so do we.

What's Next

Aloe Team is just getting started. Our roadmap includes:

  • Expanded product line: Aloe-based formulations for specific skin concerns (barrier repair, scalp care)
  • Direct farm partnerships: Even closer relationships with growers for quality control
  • Research collaboration: Supporting clinical studies on acemannan and skin health
  • Educational content: Videos, guides, and webinars on evidence-based skincare

We're building a brand for the long term—one that earns trust through consistency, not hype.
