Overview

About Geraniol in South Africa

Geraniol is a monoterpene alcohol with a sweet, rose-like, floral character and a fresh green undertone. Found naturally in palmarosa, geranium and citronella oils, it is a cornerstone of rose bases and a workhorse floral note across perfumery, cosmetics and household fragrance.

Zentish Exim supplies geraniol from qualified Indian producers in standard grade, with minimum 95% assay by GC. Natural-grade sourcing is available on request for specific programmes.

South Africa is the gateway to SADC, with NRCS oversight on regulated chemical imports and SA-GHS aligned to UN-GHS. Durban, Cape Town and Port Elizabeth are the primary ports; ocean freight runs 18-25 days.
