Description

Oils, Mandarin, Terpene-Free is a high-purity, specialized citrus extract derived from mandarin orange peels, with the characteristic terpene components removed. This process yields a concentrated, stable aromatic oil prized for its consistent flavor and fragrance profile, free from the volatility and oxidation issues common in standard citrus oils. It is an essential ingredient for manufacturers in the flavor, fragrance, and personal care industries who require reliable, high-quality natural components for premium product formulations.

Application

• Flavor & Fragrance (F&F) Industry: As a key natural flavoring agent in beverages, confectionery, baked goods, and dairy products, providing a sweet, fresh mandarin note without terpene-related instability.
• Aromatherapy & Wellness Products: Used in diffuser blends, massage oils, and candles for its calming and uplifting aromatic properties in a more shelf-stable form.
• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Incorporated into soaps, lotions, shampoos, and perfumes as a natural fragrance component that is less likely to cause skin sensitization compared to full terpene-containing oils.
• Pharmaceutical & Nutraceutical: As a natural flavor masking agent in syrups, chewable tablets, and dietary supplements.
• Household & Industrial Products: For scenting eco-friendly cleaning products, detergents, and air fresheners where a consistent, long-lasting citrus aroma is desired.
