Essential Oil
Sourcing Essential Oil from K.K Enterprise - India Import Guide
Before placing an order, verify the botanical source of each oil with a certificate of analysis. Confirm the extraction method is steam distillation and request GC-MS reports for each batch. Check that moisture content is below 0.5% and that specific gravity aligns with published standards for the species. Avoid suppliers who cannot provide these documents, as purity cannot be assured otherwise.
Confirm the Incoterms offered - FOB Mumbai is typical - and whether the supplier handles export documentation. Lead time for bulk orders is typically 15 to 25 days after payment, but this must be confirmed in writing. Payment terms are usually T/T in advance or L/C at sight. Always request a packing list with batch numbers and net weights per container.
Conduct a pre-shipment inspection for container integrity, label accuracy, and seal condition. Request a third-party lab report for heavy metals and pesticide residues. Ensure each bottle is labeled with the botanical name, batch number, extraction date, and expiry. Retain a sample from each shipment for quality auditing in your own facility.
