Lavandin (Leaves / Flowers / Buds) Essential Oil Distillation Plant

A Lavandin essential oil distillation plant is a specialized facility designed to extract essential oil from the leaves, flowers, and buds of Lavandula × intermedia, commonly known as Lavandin — a natural hybrid between true lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) and spike lavender (Lavandula latifolia). Lavandin oil is widely valued for its fresh, camphorous-floral scent and is extensively used in aromatherapy, perfumery, personal care products, and cleaning agents.

The extraction is carried out using steam distillation, the preferred method for preserving the aromatic and therapeutic properties of the plant. In the process, freshly harvested Lavandin plant parts are loaded into a stainless steel distillation chamber. Steam is passed through the plant material, vaporizing the essential oils. The steam-oil mixture is then cooled in a condenser, and the oil is separated from the hydrosol using a Florentine separator.

Modern Lavandin oil distillation plants feature:

High-efficiency steam boilers

Stainless steel distillation units

Condensers and oil separators

Temperature and pressure control systems for optimal yield

The resulting essential oil is rich in linalool, linalyl acetate, and camphor, making it more intense and sharper in scent than true lavender oil. Lavandin plants are cultivated for their high oil yield, making this process economically efficient on a commercial scale. The facility complies with strict hygiene and safety standards, producing oil suitable for use in cosmetics, aromatherapy, wellness products, and industrial fragrances.
