What IFRA restrictions and allergen declarations apply to this Citrus × limon oil?
Steam-distilled rather than expressed, so bergapten is not the driving risk it is in cold-pressed lemon or lime. A furocoumarin check is still available on request for leave-on applications.
Declaration
- Limonene and citral are declarable fragrance allergens above 0.01% in leave-on and 0.1% in rinse-off products (EU 1223/2009).
- IFRA category limits for the relevant product type apply; the buyer's formulator sizes the dose.
- G4S issues a per-batch allergen quantification on request.
The oil is low phototoxic risk (distilled, not expressed). G4S supplies the composition and the SDS; the formulator remains responsible for the end-product label and dose.
