Overview

About Natural Citral in Vietnam

Natural citral is the aldehyde responsible for the bright, fresh lemon character of lemongrass and Litsea cubeba oils, supplied here as a natural isolate. With its powerful citrus top note it is one of the most widely used aldehydes in flavour and fragrance work, adding lift to lemon-type beverages, confectionery, fine fragrance and household products.

Zentish Exim supplies natural citral from qualified Indian producers, with a minimum purity of 95% verified by GC, in containers from trial quantities to industrial drums.

Vietnam's food-processing and cosmetics sectors drive steady demand for these ingredients, regulated under ASEAN-harmonised standards with Vietnamese-language SDS common. Hai Phong and Ho Chi Minh City/Cat Lai are the main ports; ocean freight runs 12-20 days.
