Quality Control

Our Hemlock Oil is produced and handled under strict quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and purity. While specific grades vary, our standard quality undergoes testing for key parameters such as organoleptic properties, refractive index, and specific gravity. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting these results are available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory compliance needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area at temperatures between 15-25°C (59-77°F). Due to its highly volatile and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) after opening to maximize shelf life and maintain product integrity. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flames.
