I am having trouble deciding which products are the best. What is the best way to judge the quality of neem oil manufactured by different companies?

If one thing is for certain, it’s that every business selling Neem will claim that theirs is of the highest quality. Sometimes, it can be difficult for the consumer to compare or verify these claims. One good way to evaluate the quality and purity of a company’s neem oil is by looking at the percentage of the oil’s active ingredient, azadirachtin (frequently seen as AZA). Our Neem oil is extremely pure, measured at AZA 2,000 parts per million (ppm).

What is the Botanical Name of the Neem Tree?

Azadirachta Indica

While research is still in its early stages, Neem shows promise for the treatment of numerous diseases and medical ailments, improving agricultural output, and improving the overall quality of life for mankind.

Does Neem have any dangerous side affects?

Neem products are all-natural and extremely safe to use. Unlike complex pharmaceutical medications, our products are not dangerous in any way. Our only recommendation is that it should not be taken internally by children under the age of fourteen (however, it is still safe to be applied topically to children of all ages, including infants).

Can Neem Oil be used as a pesticide?

Neem oil has seen widespread use as a “bio-inhibitor,” not as a pesticide. Unfortunately, due to EPA restrictions, we are not allowed to endorse the sale or use of neem for either purpose. However, we can refer you to an excellent source of information at www.neemfoundation.org.

What if you ship the wrong product or I am not satisfied with my order?

If you are dissatisfied in any way with an item sold by neemdirect.com, return it within 30 days of delivery for a full refund. We will also pay the return shipping cost in the unlikely event that we made an error in your original shipment. For other returns, we can only refund the original cost of the item, minus the shipping cost.

We cannot accept returns of certain items, including:

Any item that is returned more than 30 days after delivery.
Any item that has been used, is not in its original condition, or is damaged.
My order is incomplete. One or two items seem to be missing. What do I do?

To fill an order quickly and efficiently, we will sometimes split an order into multiple shipments, which we would indicate on the packing slip. If this is the case, rest assured that you will not be charged any additional shipping costs beyond those you had originally authorized. If there may be a significant delay involved with completing your order, you will be contacted by one of our service members.

Do you ship overseas?

Yes, we will be happy to ship your order overseas! Naturally, extra charges may apply, depending on the destination. Also, keep in mind that for shipment of goods where freshness is important (such as the Neem branches or fresh neem leaves), the shipping charges can be significant. In addition, due to import restraints, it is very costly and complicated to ship live trees to foreign countries.

Do you sell live Neem Trees?

Yes, one of our special services involves shipping a living, healthy tree so that it can be planted in your own backyard. Extreme care is taken when packaging and shipping the trees to ensure that they will arrive in perfect condition for planting. In addition to the live trees, we also ship other fresh parts such as the leaves and branches.

I would like to import Neem from the United States and distribute it. How do we start?

Please contact us at info@neemdirect.com and we will be happy to discuss the business potential that our products have in your country or region.
