Most lavender distillation systems suffer from 2 avoidable difficulties that reduce yield: thermal degradation of linalool and linalyl acetate due to long heat exposure and uneven batch parameters due to human operation.
Our system solves both. The closed-loop steam channel allows for tight control over extraction temperatures — preserving heat-sensitive terpene chemicals at every stage. PLC Automation Automatically sets and maintains your target temperature, pressure and distillation duration without user intervention, so every batch performs like the previous.
The electropolished interior (Ra ≤ 0.4 µm) prevents residue build-up between batches and meets the GMP hygiene requirements necessary in pharmaceutical and cosmetic manufacture. A single pass built-in oil-water separator separates lavender essential oil from hydrosol substantially reducing post processing time.
One of our clients, a cosmetic factory in France, achieved a 27% boost in yield in the first 30 production cycles after converting to our system. Their internal GC-MS quality criteria for output purity was routinely passed.
Stage 1 — Loading
Fresh or dried Lavandula angustifolia is loaded into the stainless steel extraction vessel. The steam-to-feed ratio is configurable between 10:1 and 20:1, depending on material moisture content and target yield.
Stage 2 — Steam Distillation
Low-pressure steam passes through the plant bed, volatilizing aromatic compounds at temperatures well below their individual boiling points. This protects fragile terpene structures that would otherwise degrade under direct heat.
Stage 3 — Condensation & Separation
Vapor travels through the high-surface-area condenser, converting back to liquid. The oil-water separator then isolates the essential oil layer — delivering a solvent-free, high-purity lavender oil ready for downstream use.
Throughout all three stages, the PLC logs temperature, pressure, and time data. Full batch records are accessible via the HMI touchscreen for quality traceability.
All product-contact components are fabricated from GMP-grade SUS304 stainless steel as standard. SUS316L is available and recommended for:
PTFE gaskets provide chemical resistance and maintain seal integrity through repeated thermal cycling — a common failure point in lower-cost systems using rubber alternatives.
The condenser is engineered with an oversized heat-transfer area to prevent steam bottlenecks during peak processing loads. An optional external jacket supports active heating and cooling integration for temperature-sensitive extraction profiles.
| Industry | Typical Use |
|---|---|
| Aromatherapy & Essential Oil Production | Bulk lavender oil for diffusers, massage blends, sleep products |
| Cosmetics & Personal Care | Active botanical ingredient for serums, toners, creams |
| Pharmaceuticals | High-purity extract for anti-anxiety and topical formulations |
| Food & Beverage | Natural lavender flavoring for confectionery and beverages |
| R&D Laboratories | Small-batch process development and yield benchmarking |
All units are produced under ISO- and CE-certified production conditions. Lavender Oil Extraction Equipment design meet GMP and FDA standards making it suitable to be used in regulated pharmaceutical and food-grade situations.

Standard configurations ship in 5-7 business days. Custom builds — including adjusted vessel capacities, extended automation, or full production line integration — are accomplished within ~30 business days from order confirmation.
We are fully accepting OEM & ODM orders. You'll have complete visibility of your build during production. Weekly progress updates with images or video will be sent by a professional project engineer.
We provide marine, air and rail freight shipping to Europe, North America, Southeast Asia and other regions.
Ready to improve your lavender oil yield and production efficiency? Our engineering team will review your production volume, botanical source material, and output specifications — then recommend the right configuration with a detailed quote, typically within 24 hours.
📩 Contact us: info@biolandequip.com
📋 To accelerate your quote, please share: target batch volume (kg), preferred vessel material (SUS304 / SUS316L), and required output purity standard.
Standard units available for dispatch within 5–7 business days.
Q: What makes steam distillation more suitable for lavender than solvent extraction?
A: Steam distillation extracts linalool and linalyl acetate — lavender's primary active compounds — without introducing chemical residues. It also preserves the aromatic profile more faithfully than solvent methods, which is critical for pharmaceutical and cosmetic-grade applications. Hydro-distillation is offered as an alternative for specific botanical matrices with lower moisture tolerance.
Q: Can the system handle both fresh-cut and dried lavender material?
A: Yes. The extraction vessel volume and steam-to-feed ratio are operator-adjustable to compensate for moisture variation between fresh and dried Lavandula angustifolia. Our engineering team can recommend starting parameters based on your specific source material during pre-sales consultation.
Q: What lead time should we plan for a custom configuration?
A: Standard units are ready for dispatch within 5–7 business days. Custom orders — including modified vessel sizes, additional instrumentation, or OEM branding — typically require approximately 30 business days from confirmed purchase order. We provide weekly production photo updates throughout.
Q: How do you handle equipment issues after delivery?
A: All units carry a one-year quality warranty covering manufacturing defects. Lifetime maintenance support is included, with remote technical assistance available within one business day. Spare parts are stocked and can be shipped internationally. For issues that cannot be resolved remotely, on-site support options are available upon request.
Q: Is the equipment compliant for use in pharmaceutical production?
A: Yes. SUS316L construction, GMP-compliant design, PTFE sealing components, and FDA-standard manufacturing practices qualify this system for pharmaceutical and cosmetic production under regulated conditions. Certification documentation is available on request.
