To start a chamomile oil processing business, one needs to conduct a market feasibility study, secure required licenses, arrange funding, select suitable land, procure equipment, recruit skilled labor, and establish a supply chain and distribution network.
Chamomile oil processing requires raw materials, such as chamomile flower (either fresh or dried) from plants like Chamomilla recutita or Matricaria chamomilla. Depending on the extraction method, other materials may be required, such as water for distillation or steam extraction, or organic solvents like ethanol or methanol for certain extraction processes.
A chamomile oil processing factory typically requires steam distillation units, boilers, condensers, and oil separators for extracting essential oil. Supporting machinery includes dryers, grinders, weighing scales, storage tanks, and filtration systems. Additionally, bottling and labeling machines, quality testing instruments, and cold storage facilities ensure efficient processing, purity, and preservation of chamomile essential oil.
The main steps generally include:
-
Harvesting and cleaning fresh chamomile flowers
-
Drying flowers to reduce moisture content
