Description
Tangerine Essential Oil is a bright, intensely sweet, warm, and uplifting citrus essential oil cold pressed from the outer peel (flavedo / epicarp) of the tangerine fruit — Citrus reticulata Blanco — a small, loose-skinned, sweet citrus fruit belonging to the Rutaceae (Citrus) family and one of the most widely cultivated, most commercially important, and most consumer-loved citrus fruits in the world. While the terms "tangerine," "mandarin," and "Clementine" are often used interchangeably in casual consumer language — and botanically all belong to the Citrus reticulata species complex — in the essential oil and food flavouring industry, Tangerine Oil specifically refers to the cold pressed or steam distilled oil from the reddish-orange to deep orange cultivars of Citrus reticulata grown primarily in the Americas (Florida, California, Brazil), India, China, Spain, and Japan — characterized by a distinctly sweeter, warmer, less tart aromatic profile compared to mandarin (greener, more complex) and orange (warmer but less bright). India is a significant tangerine producer — with Nagpur in Maharashtra (renowned globally as the "Orange Capital of India" — though primarily growing mandarin-tangerine types locally known as "Nagpuri Santra"), Coorg in Karnataka, Sikkim, Meghalaya, and Himachal Pradesh as primary growing regions — giving Liana Health Care direct access to domestically sourced Citrus reticulata for competitive B2B pricing.
Chemically, Tangerine Essential Oil is dominated by d-Limonene — the highest-purity monoterpene composition of virtually any commercially available essential oil — making it simultaneously the richest, most concentrated natural source of this extraordinarily versatile, multi-industrial compound (antioxidant, antibacterial, natural solvent, mood-lifting, digestive-stimulating, food-flavouring), while also creating a clean, bright, sweet aromatic profile that is universally appealing to consumers across cultures, age groups, and genders. The remaining composition includes gamma-terpinene, myrcene, alpha-pinene, beta-pinene, linalool, and thymol (in trace amounts in some Citrus reticulata varieties — giving tangerine a very faint warm spice undertone absent in lemon and grapefruit), together creating a fragrance character that is distinctly sweeter, warmer, more rounded, and more childlike in its immediate appeal than any other citrus essential oil — making it the preferred citrus for children's products, pregnancy care, and gentle consumer applications.
One of the most commercially significant distinctions for B2B manufacturers is Tangerine Oil's exceptional position as the most universally safe citrus essential oil — unlike lemon, lime, and grapefruit cold pressed oils which are phototoxic (requiring restriction in leave-on sun-exposed products), cold pressed Tangerine Oil has a significantly lower furanocumarin content and correspondingly higher IFRA phototoxicity limit — with many industry assessments considering cold pressed Tangerine Oil to have minimal phototoxicity risk at standard cosmetic usage rates, though steam distilled Tangerine Oil remains fully non-phototoxic and is recommended for complete safety assurance in all leave-on formulations. Beyond phototoxicity — Tangerine Oil is one of only a very small number of essential oils widely considered appropriate for use in children's products, pregnancy aromatherapy, and baby care at appropriate dilutions — a position that creates enormous commercial opportunity in the rapidly growing natural baby and maternal care market. Food manufacturers particularly value Tangerine Oil for its clean, sweet, authentic tangerine-mandarin flavour character — used at low concentrations (0.001% to 0.1%) in beverages, confectionery, dairy, and bakery products — particularly important in Indian food manufacturing where tangerine-citrus flavour is widely demanded in cold drinks, packaged sweets, and flavoured dairy products.

Ltd. supplies both Cold Pressed and Steam Distilled Tangerine Essential Oil — in therapeutic, cosmetic, and food grades — from retail 1kg packs to bulk 200kg industrial drums — facility in Meerut, Uttar Pradesh, with pan-India delivery and international export since 2010.
