Import Clove — Buy in Bulk from Supplier in Switzerland

Relean Group offers cloves in multiple forms - whole, rasped, and powdered - from its base in Ascona, Ticino, Switzerland. The whole cloves are sourced from premium-grade stock, ensuring consistent flavour and aroma, while the rasped and powdered variants provide convenience for industrial applications. Each form retains the spice’s essential oil profile, with eugenol as the primary active compound.

Clove powder is typically milled to a fine mesh size (40-60 mesh), ensuring uniform dispersion in food processing. Rasped cloves, a coarser form, are often used in tea blends or meat rubs where texture is desired. The volatile oil content in standard cloves ranges from 15% to 20%, with eugenol levels typically above 80% of the total oil, a benchmark for quality cloves. Moisture content for powdered forms is controlled below 10% to prevent caking.

These cloves are widely used in the European food industry for seasoning, baking, and beverage production, as well as in pharmaceuticals for their antiseptic and analgesic properties. Switzerland’s role as a hub for spice distribution means Relean Group can offer reliable supply chains and consistent quality. Packaging options include vacuum-sealed bags or drums to maintain freshness during storage and transit.

Relean Group operates from Via Pancaldi Mola 10 in Ascona, Ticino, Switzerland, positioning itself as an importer and distributor of spices and agricultural commodities. The company’s location in Ticino, a region known for its logistical connectivity to both European and global markets, facilitates efficient distribution of cloves in various forms.

The supplier is classified under the imported tier with a harbor trust tier, indicating a verified operational status. While no response rate or average response time is provided, the company’s focus on sourcing premium-grade cloves and offering multiple forms suggests a commitment to meeting diverse buyer needs. Buyers should confirm specific certifications, such as ISO or HALAL, directly with Relean Group, as these are not detailed in the listing.
