The Extraction Process of Carrot Seed Essential Oil

Step-by-Step Steam Distillation Process

1. Harvesting – Wild carrot plants are grown organically, and the seeds are collected after flowering.
2. Drying – The seeds are sun-dried to enhance their essential oil concentration.
3. Steam Distillation – High-pressure steam is passed through the dried seeds, extracting the oil.
4. Cooling & Separation – The vapor condenses, separating the oil from water.
5. Filtration & Storage – The pure essential oil is filtered and stored in dark glass bottles to maintain its potency.

 Did You Know? It takes over 50 kg of wild carrot seeds to produce just 1 liter of carrot seed essential oil!
