Citrus Oils & Natural Extracts

South Africa produces a wide range of citrus fruits. The citrus plantations are situated throughout the country, on the West Coast, the East Coast, the South Coast as well as inland. Consequently, there are a variety of citrus oil qualities and thus South African citrus oils can match those from many different regions of the world.

The citrus oils we offer are:
● Orange oil (Mid-Season and Valencia)
● Lemon oil
● Grapefruit oil (White, Pink & Red)
● Tangerine oil
● Lime oil (distilled and cold-pressed)
● Clementine

We produce, from the above oils, a number of citrus extracts, which include:
● Folded citrus oils - 5, 10 and 20 fold - of Orange, Lemon,
  Grapefruit, Lime and Tangerine
● Distillates such as D-Limonene, Valencene and Nootkatone
● Citrus aldehydes and citrus sesquiterpenes
● Citrus aroma oils, such as Orange Aroma oil, Lemon Aroma oil
● Grapefruit Aroma oil and Tangerine Aroma oil

The citrus season in South Africa starts in the month of April and ends in September. The harvest time is as follows:
● Grapefruit - Mid-April through to late June
● Lemon - June through to September
● Navel Orange - June/July
● Valencia Orange - July/August/September
● Tangerine - July/August

Oil is normally available 3-4 weeks after the commencement of the fruit harvest.
