How should this sweet orange oil be transported and stored to maintain quality?
Sweet orange oil is an easily oxidized citrus oil. Correct transport and storage — cool, dark, airtight, away from oxygen and light — preserve its bright aroma for the full 36-month shelf life.
Transport & Storage Guidelines
| Condition | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Temperature | 5-25°C, away from heat sources and direct sunlight |
| Light | Keep in opaque/amber containers, out of direct light |
| Air | Minimize headspace; keep containers sealed after each use |
| Container | Stainless steel, glass, aluminium or HDPE — never copper or iron |
| Storage position | Sealed drums upright, indoors, dry |
| Shelf life | 36 months from production (24 months after first opening) |
- Oxidation is the main quality risk: oxygen + light + heat turn limonene into sensitizing oxidation products and dull the aroma
- Bulk storage under nitrogen blanketing is recommended for long holds
- Keep away from sparks and open flame — flash point is around 47-53°C
- Do not store near food products unless sealed and food-grade
- After opening, close tightly and use within 12 months for best freshness
