Characteristics & Applications

Our white grapefruit oil in fivefold concentration is extracted from the skin of the fruit and then concentrated in a special process. This is done by distillation or rectification.

Value components of the raw material are obtained by fractionation in order to produce high-quality products for the flavor and fragrance industry.

In addition to rectification, technologies such as liquid-liquid extraction, Co2 high-pressure extraction, molecular distillation and spinning cone columne can also be used to produce premium quality ingredients. The 5-fold oil is only one of many ways of concentrating the essential citrus oils.
