Lavender Oil (NZ Lavender)
 
Not all essential oils are created equal and with little or no regulation governing quality control standards, you need to be sure you are buying a quality product. As a lavender oil exporter, NZ Lavender is New Zealand's largest commercial lavender farm. Just a few minutes drive from Christchurch, on the verdant Canterbury plains. NZ Lavender prides itself on producing high quality oil in commercial volumes.

NZ Lavender takes the storage of the oil very seriously, fully aware of the harmful effects water, oxygen, heat, strong light and certain metals can have on lavender oil. To maintain the quality of the oil it is dried using anhydrous sodium sulphate before being stored at 4°C, under argon gas in aluminium containers.
