What is the production lead time for patchouli oil orders?
Lead time depends on order size, grade and packing. Standard-grade patchouli oil is usually available from stock or within one production cycle; special grades, certified lots and custom packing add time. The fermentation, distillation and aging steps are fixed parts of the calendar, so lead time is predictable.
Typical Lead Times
| Order type | Lead time |
|---|---|
| Sample order (≤1 kg) | 1-3 days from confirmation |
| Stock standard grade (up to 1 t) | 3-7 days |
| Production run (1-5 t) | 7-15 days |
| Certified grade (halal/kosher/organic) | +7-14 days for certification |
| Custom packing / OEM label | +7-10 days |
| Large contract (20 t+) | Scheduled per contract (30-60 days typical) |
What Drives the Calendar
- Leaf fermentation takes 2-8 days and steam distillation about 24 hours per run
- Aging and settling (6-12 months ideal for premium character) happens in bulk before filling
- QC release: GC-MS, physical-chemical testing and documentation add 2-3 days
- Ocean freight lead time is quoted separately from production time
How to Shorten Lead Time
- Place standing orders with forecast volume so we pre-produce and hold stock for you
- Order stock grades from our ready inventory
- Confirm documents (COA format, certificates, destination language) at ordering — last-minute changes delay dispatch
Our Commitment
- Written lead time on every quotation; actual dispatch dates tracked and reported
- Stock levels are reviewed weekly; buffer stock covers urgent restocks for regular buyers
