Quality Control

Our 2,5-Dimethoxy-4-Methylphenylmethanol is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC, GC, and NMR, to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. We provide full traceability and Certificates of Analysis (COA) are available for all shipments, confirming compliance with agreed specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
