Geranyl Acetate Supplier and Exporter for the UK
Chemical Bull supports Geranyl Acetate sourcing for UK buyers, serving fragrance houses, flavour formulators and home or personal care manufacturers. Share your required grade, specification and order quantity to request a supply quotation. Our role is to coordinate the offered material and commercial details against your purchasing requirements.
What Is Geranyl Acetate?
Geranyl acetate is the acetate ester of geraniol. It provides fruity, floral character and is used in selected fragrance and flavour compositions when the supplied grade is qualified.
CAS number: 105-87-3. Confirm this identity against the documentation for the supplied material.
Geranyl Acetate Uses and Industrial Applications
Fine fragrance
It supports floral, rose-like and fruity accords. Evaluate balance and evaporation behaviour in the complete fragrance composition.
Home and personal care scenting
Fragrance formulators assess it for scent character in the intended product base. Storage conditions and base chemistry influence stability.
Flavour formulation
Appropriate flavour grades may be considered for permitted applications. Confirm the application and required origin documentation before sourcing.
Choosing the Right Geranyl Acetate Grade
For bulk Geranyl Acetate procurement, specify assay, acidity, colour, ester profile and origin specification. Where the manufacturer uses a trade grade or a particular test method, include that reference in your enquiry. The offered specification should match the material you intend to approve for production.
Choose the material against both analytical and sensory requirements. A matching chemical name does not establish identical origin, isomer profile or odour character. Where the enquiry concerns a branded grade, specify the original manufacturer and required traceability. Flavour and fragrance materials need different end-use qualification. Provide the intended market and product type, and request the relevant declarations rather than assuming that a material described as an aroma chemical is automatically suitable for food.
Production Trials and Quality Checks
Evaluate the material in the concentrate and in the actual finished product base. Solubility, colour and sensory balance can change during processing and storage. Claims about natural origin, longevity or finished-product performance should be supported for the specific material and formulation being supplied.
For repeat supply, agree the acceptance limits and document requirements before the first commercial order. Review the batch Certificate of Analysis against that specification, and keep a retained sample where your quality procedure requires it. If a test method differs between sources, resolve that difference before treating the results as equivalent.
When comparing an alternative source, record the original manufacturer grade, the candidate specification and the results of your own evaluation. This gives purchasing and production teams a clear basis for approval. A lower quoted unit price should be considered alongside the material delivered, processing behaviour and any additional testing needed for the change.
Storage and Handling
Follow the SDS and the manufacturer storage guidance to protect both handling conditions and aroma quality. Keep packaging closed and control contamination during sampling. Review oxidation, colour or temperature sensitivity where identified for the particular material. Use a defined sensory reference and keep retained samples under appropriate conditions for later comparison.
Geranyl Acetate MSDS, SDS and Technical Documentation
Request the current Geranyl Acetate MSDS or Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for the exact offered grade. The document covers hazard identification, handling, storage, exposure controls and transport information. Ask separately for the product specification, Technical Data Sheet where available, and a batch Certificate of Analysis. An SDS supports safe-use assessment; it does not replace a quality specification or demonstrate finished-product approval.
Geranyl Acetate Price and Bulk Supply for UK Buyers
The Geranyl Acetate price for UK delivery depends on the grade, quantity, packaging, source and agreed delivery terms. Include your delivery postcode, required date and purchasing frequency when requesting a quotation. State whether the destination is in Great Britain or Northern Ireland so the relevant supply arrangements can be reviewed. Availability, freight and any import responsibilities should be confirmed in the quotation before an order is placed.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is Geranyl Acetate?
Geranyl acetate is the acetate ester of geraniol. The CAS number is 105-87-3.
2. What is Geranyl Acetate used for?
Applications include fine fragrance, home and personal care scenting, flavour formulation. The required grade and finished-product suitability depend on the actual formulation or process.
3. Is geranyl acetate the same as geraniol?
No. Geranyl acetate is an ester and geraniol is an alcohol. Their sensory profiles and behaviour in formulations differ.
4. How can I request a bulk Geranyl Acetate price for the UK?
Send the product name, approved specification, required quantity, packaging preference and UK delivery postcode. Include your target date and documentation requirements for a relevant quotation.
5. Can I request a Geranyl Acetate MSDS?
Yes. Ask for the current SDS/MSDS for the offered grade, together with the product specification and available COA or TDS. Review the documents before approving the material.
