How is this Citrus × limon oil extracted, and which method is preferred?
G4S uses Steam distillation for this grade. The peel is steam-distilled at low pressure, which gives a clean, soft profile without solvent contact and without the heavy residue of an expressed oil. Why this routeNo solvent is used, so there is no solvent-residue carry-over to declare.Distillation keeps the profile soft and clean, which suits fine-fragrance work.The natural marker ratios of the peel are preserved rather than rebuilt from fractions.The process route, batch yield and key operating parameters are recorded on the batch file, and the COA states which route was used.
