The Importance of Vanillin for the Industry

With over half a century of expertise in the clove oil derivatives industry, the majority of Indesso's vanillin is exported to key global markets such as the United States and European countries.

 

Vanillin is a primary compound that contributes to vanilla flavor and aroma. While naturally present in vanilla beans, it can also be derived from clove oil. Vanillin from clove oil is widely utilized across multiple industries. Its role as a flavoring agent in food and beverages makes it an essential ingredient for enhancing product taste. Additionally, vanillin is used in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and personal care industries due to its distinctive aroma and stability. From ice cream and perfumes to nutritional supplements, vanillin plays an indispensable role in everyday products.
