What is the production lead time for zedoary turmeric oil?
The lead time depends on the grade and quantity: fragrance-grade stock orders ship in 3-7 days; pharmacopoeia-grade and custom-specification orders take 10-20 days; refined grades (curcumol-enriched, molecular-distilled fractions) need 20-30 days; and large orders outside the harvest season can take 30-60 days including raw material planning.
Lead Time By Order Type
| Order type | Typical lead time |
|---|---|
| Stock fragrance grade | 3-7 days |
| Pharmacopoeia grade | 10-20 days |
| Custom specification / label | 10-20 days |
| Organic / certified batch | 4-8 weeks (audit included) |
| Refined grade (fraction) | 20-30 days |
| Multi-tonne order | 30-60 days (plan with harvest) |
What Affects Lead Time
- Raw material: Dao-di Wen-ezhu lots are limited and allocated by reservation
- Season: orders placed during the harvest window (Oct-Dec) are fastest; mid-year may use stock
- Grade: pharmacopoeia-grade release needs full HPLC and TLC testing before dispatch
- Documents: certificates (Halal, Kosher, organic) add audit time
How To Shorten Lead Time
- Place a rolling annual order so we can reserve raw material and production slots
- Confirm the specification and packaging at the inquiry stage, avoiding re-testing and re-approval
- For urgent needs, combine a small stock shipment now with a bulk production order later
