Esters occur naturally in fruit and are responsible for the fragrance of fruit. Their pleasant aromas have led to common use in flavoring and fragrance applications in the food and cosmetics industries. In different dilutions, esters can also be used as solvents, lubricants and cleaning solutions.

Recommended uses: Flavoring, home fragrance, personal care fragrance, fragrance oil.

Blue Marble’s proprietary extraction technologies produce oils and extracts that rival the quality of both supercritical CO₂ and traditional solvent extracts. This unique process produces light, high-quality products without the solvent residue of traditionally extracted products or the expense of supercritical CO₂ extraction.

Recommended uses: The applications of our extracts and oils vary widely from flavoring and fragrance to personal care and cosmetic ingredients, depending on each specific product.

Thioesters are responsible for savory scents such as of meat, cheese, onion, garlic, and cabbage. They naturally occur in such foods and are often used in low concentrations to enhance a rich, savory flavor in foods.

Recommended uses: flavoring

Blue Marble offers hard-to-find natural thiols and organosulfur compounds for savory flavorings. Similar to our thioester products, these products can enhance savory flavors in in low concentrations.

Recommended uses: flavoring, flavor precursors

In conjunction with our Research and Development Program, Blue Marble can sustainably manufacture the following natural compounds on a contract basis.
