Our Ginger oil has been produced using CO2 extraction method. This method produces a superior, clean smelling oil. It removes the dirt-like aroma that can be common with Ginger essential oils leaving just the warm, sweet ginger aroma synonymous with the fresh ginger roots.
What is CO2 extraction?
Supercritical CO2 (carbon dioxide) extraction captures the essence of the plant ensuring maximum purity.
CO2 is the same gas that plants thrive on and is also the gas we breathe out of our lungs. During extraction, pressure is applied to CO2 (carbon dioxide) turning the gas into liquid. This liquid CO2 can be used as a very safe liquid solvent and is ideal for essential oil extraction due to its low toxicity and ability to preserve the delicate volatile components of the oil often lost with other extraction methods.
At the end of extraction, the CO2 solvent can be totally removed very easily by releasing the pressure in the extraction chamber. This process, because it happens in a closed chamber, can collect the most fragile parts of the fragrance and plant. The end result is as close to the natural essence and fragrance of a plant possible.
Safety
Ginger oil is non-toxic and non-irritant.
It may cause sensitisation in some individuals, used diluted.
Blends with
Lemongrass, Lavender, lemon, rose geranium, peppermint, rosemary
