PRICE INCREASES ON RAW MATERIALS



PRICE INCREASES ON RAW MATERIALS
Due to global events and fluctuations in the economy, we have been forced to raise our prices on certain raw materials....

As many of you may be aware, these last few weeks have seen protest and rioting in many developing countries as millions are affected by rising food prices. Increased energy and fuel prices, competition amongst biofuel producers and crop failures with the resulting food shortages have resulted in the marked increase of special vegetable oils. Because of the competition from the biofuel sector, oils like sunflower and thistle oil used for food have seen stock market increases of 30-40%.

India and China are ‘vacuuming’ the world, not only for metals but also for vegetable oils and are buying up entire export crops from whole countries. Some vegetable oils may be difficult to get because of this. Aromantic seems to have the only 200 litre drum of Jojoba Oil in the UK and the next harvest is next July/August so we have restricted sales to 5 litres per customer. We still have Sunflower Oil and Organic Thistle (Safflower) Oil but with 10% price increases. As most of the products we sell come from the Euro zone and the pound has decreased its strength by 13% against the euro and the Swedish krona, we need to increase or prices, most often by 10%.

However, because the market is so volatile we suggest you check our website for the most up to date prices. We will have a PDF document with the most up to date prices for downloading from our website as well, in case you prefer to see the prices all in one place. For new customers who request a printed 2007/8 catalogue, we are only sending out our 2007/8 catalogue for the product information and descriptions they contain but we will also send out a printed version of the latest prices along with the catalogue.

Due to the continuing droughts around the world, citrus essential oils will increase in price in the near future. There also only very small supplies left of Roman Chamomile (doubling the market price), Hyssop (price doubled), Bergamot, Palmarosa, Patchouli and Ylang Ylang. As the supplies become even shorter, these prices will increase. Tea Tree Oil has almost doubled in price due the fact that so many farmers have stopped farming it. As you can see our essential oil prices are unpredictable and some will go up in price due to the global factors mentioned and some, we’re not sure which at this point, may go down in price in the following months due to Aromantic having expanded such that we can take advantage of a better discount tier with our supplier. The price of vegetable-based Glycerine will increase much more than 10% in the near future. We’ve had more or less the same price for 10 years but now it has increased radically in the last few months.

In many ways we are more blessed than the poor people in Bangladesh are and other developing countries where already poor people have to cope with the doubling and even quadrupling of their most stable food, rice.

In Your Service,

Kolbjørn Borseth

Somalia: an Organic Frankincense Essential Oil.

France: a new Organic Vegetable Oil in our ever expanding range, Organic Walnut Oil, which is also cold pressed and contains 11-14% Omega 3 Fatty Acids. Easily absorbed by the skin, it is a regenerative Skin Oil, excellent for mature skin as well as for treating skin & scalp problems.

Spain:  a popular and powerful antioxidant, dried Organic Olive Leaf, which you can make into a Herbal Tea or Decoction, strain and then use in the making of your products for its antibacterial, antioxidants and soothing properties.

Germany: a new, more innovative, natural broad-spectrum Preservative, Preservative 12, which is excellent for sensitive skin and not pH sensitive, so can be used in pH ranges up to 12.

Holland: a GMO-free, food grade, Natural Vitamin E Oil, which is approved for use in organic products by the Soil Association and is cheaper than our previous Natural Vitamin E Oil.

Scotland: And even something from my adopted home, capturing the essence of the wild, ancient Scots Pine and the Highland forests, Highland Scottish Pine Essential Oil has excellent warming properties so makes it perfect for adding to Creams, Ointments, Massage Oils and Foam Baths for treating muscular aches and pains.

Preservative 12



New Preservative Available...
We are pleased to offer this very new, innovative, more natural Preservative which has just come out onto the market.

Preservative 12 (NI) - INCI: Phenoxyethanol, Ethylhexylglycerin

People who have reacted before to Potassium Sorbate in seem to tolerate this new Preservative.

The good thing is that you don’t need to think about the pH reduction and can use it in pH ranges up to 12.

As with Preservative K, Preservative 12 also contains phenoxyethanol but the producers have broken new ground here.

This blend has a broad-spectrum effect on bacteria, yeasts, and mould fungi. Excellent for all types of Skin Care products, except those which contain Detergents. Recommended dosage is 0.5%-1%.
