Citronella Oil
Citronella Oil is a high-purity essential oil derived via steam distillation of Cymbopogon grasses, valued for its high citronellal and geraniol content. It serves as a primary bio-based raw material in various industrial formulations requiring natural efficacy and technical consistency.
This technical grade oil exhibits potent insect-repellent and antiseptic properties, making it an essential component for environmentally friendly pest control. Its hydrophobic nature ensures stability in oil-based applications and surfactant-rich blends used in industrial hygiene.
In commercial manufacturing, it acts as a sustainable aromatic agent with a distinctive citrus profile that masks harsh chemical odors. Its compatibility with synthetic polymers and cosmetic bases allows for versatile use across the hygiene and fragrance sectors.
