Dehydrated Orange from India — sourced, graded and export-ready.
Harnessing the famous 'Nagpur Orange' belt of Maharashtra, we supply high-quality
dehydrated orange products targeted heavily towards the bakery, herbal tea, and
cosmetics industries. Whether it's the beautiful, fully dried orange round
slices used as cocktail garnishes, or the highly aromatic, limonene-rich orange
peel/zest powder used for flavor extraction, our citrus processing is second to
none.
Aethon Overseas supplies dehydrated orange available as dried orange slices/rounds, orange peel pieces (candied/natural), orange zest powder. From trial samples to multi-container annual contracts, every lot is cleaned, graded and quality-checked before shipment — with a Certificate of Analysis, phytosanitary certificate and full export documentation included.
