What most buyers of Ylang Ylang Oil are really testing is consistency: whether lot twelve behaves like lot one. That is why every batch is compared against a retained reference before release, and why the certificate of analysis quotes measured values instead of a catalogue range.
The material is packed in 5 kg / 25 kg drum. Trial quantities are available for bench work, and a production run follows only after the specification has been agreed in writing.
| Parameter | Typical value | Method |
|---|---|---|
| Appearance | Conforms to the retained reference | Visual |
| GC Profile | Within the agreed release range | In-house / third party |
| Odour Intensity | Declared on the certificate of analysis | In-house |
| Suggested dosage | 0.1%–1.0% in the fragrance concentrate | Application trial |
| Microbiology | Within food grade limits | ISO 4833 / ISO 21527 |
| Heavy metals | Below the limit of the destination market | ICP-MS |
| Packaging | 5 kg / 25 kg drum | — |
| Shelf life | 24 months in unopened packaging | Stability data |
Buyers use it across fragrance compounds, personal care, household care. The first question to settle is what the finished product has to declare, because that declaration sets the minimum grade you can accept. The second is the process step that limits performance — heat, pH or shear — because that decides whether the standard grade is adequate or a tighter specification is worth paying for.
Every lot is tested for appearance, GC profile, odour intensity and microbiology. Heavy metals and pesticide residue are tested on a schedule, or on request against the requirements of the destination market. Retained samples are kept for 24 months, which is what allows a deviation to be investigated against the actual lot instead of a memory of it.
Release testing covers appearance, GC profile and odour intensity, with microbiology on a scheduled basis. Heavy metals and pesticide residue are tested either on a schedule or against the requirements of the destination market. Retained samples are held for 24 months, which is what allows a deviation to be investigated against the actual lot instead of a memory of it.
Standard packing is 5 kg / 25 kg drum. Trial quantities of 1 kg and 5 kg are available for evaluation. Production lead time is typically 7 to 15 working days ex-works, and mixed containers can be consolidated across categories to reach a full load.
Shipping documents are issued in the form your customs broker expects: commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin where applicable, and the health or non-GMO declarations some destinations ask for at the border.
We manufacture and export food ingredients for B2B customers in Europe, North America and Asia, and we ship against the documentation the destination market actually requires rather than the documentation that is easiest to issue. Orders are handled by a named contact from quotation through to arrival, so the person who quoted the specification is the person who answers when the container is booked.
Can we get a sample before ordering? Yes — 100 g to 500 g with its certificate, normally dispatched within three working days.
Is custom packing possible? Yes, from 100 kg for a custom run, including private label artwork.
Which documents come with the shipment? COA for the lot, MSDS, allergen statement, non-GMO statement and packing list.
Can the specification be adjusted? Within the production window, yes. Send the target values and we will confirm feasibility with a sample.
