Quality Control

Our Bergamot Fruit Oil is sourced and processed under strict quality protocols to ensure consistency and purity. We provide material that can meet the requirements of various standards, including Food Chemical Codex (FCC) and International Organization for Standardization (ISO) guidelines for essential oils. Each batch is supported by a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing key parameters such as optical rotation, refractive index, specific gravity, and chromatographic profile to verify authenticity and quality.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, 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 headspace) for long-term preservation and to minimize degradation. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
