What FernMark Means for BOTALLOW
BOTALLOW was founded to supply premium cosmetic-grade tallow for the global personal-care industry, using raw materials sourced from New Zealand’s red-meat sector and processed with care, intention, and technical precision.
Our FernMark licence confirms that BOTALLOW products are made in New Zealand and meet the programme’s standards for origin and brand integrity. For international customers, this provides confidence that they are sourcing an ingredient with verified New Zealand provenance, backed by a government-recognised programme.
FernMark is administered by the New Zealand Government through New Zealand Story Group, and is recognised globally as a mark of authenticity and trust.
Cosmetic-Grade Tallow, Made with Care
At BOTALLOW, provenance is not just about where an ingredient comes from, but how it is handled at every stage.
We specialise in cosmetic-grade tallow, produced using low-temperature, multi-stage rendering methods designed to deliver a clean, refined, low-odour ingredient suitable for skincare and personal-care formulation.
Our flagship offering, BOTALLOW Cosmetic Grade Beef Tallow, is supplied as a raw ingredient for use in creams, balms, body care, soaps, and anhydrous formulations.

This product is trusted by formulators and brands looking for a functional, stable lipid with strong skin compatibility and a clear provenance story.
Provenance and Transparency in Global Skincare
As the skincare and personal-care industry places increasing emphasis on ingredient transparency, ethical sourcing, and supply-chain integrity, country of origin has become a critical purchasing factor.
The FernMark helps international buyers quickly identify products that are genuinely New Zealand made and aligned with the country’s reputation for responsible farming and high production standards.
For BOTALLOW customers, this means confidence not only in the ingredient itself, but in the systems and values behind it.
