What factors drive the price of Hangzhou chrysanthemum oil?
Price is driven by raw-material cost, extraction grade, season and packaging: the GI-region dried flowers, the lower yield of steam distillation versus CO2 extraction, and harvest-year supply all move the per-kg rate.
Price Drivers
| Factor | Impact |
|---|---|
| Raw material (GI dried flowers) | Geographically protected, higher cost than generic blooms |
| Yield | Steam distillation ~0.55% dry basis; scarcity raises value |
| Grade | CO2-extracted premium grade priced above steam-distilled |
| Season | Prices firm up outside the autumn harvest window |
| Packaging & volume | Bulk packaging and contracts reduce unit cost |
