What Ultra International does

Ultra International Limited is a privately-held Indian manufacturer and global B2B supplier of natural essential oils, vegetable oils, absolutes, fragrances, and flavors serving fragrance houses, flavor compounders, F&B manufacturers, cosmetics and personal-care brands, and aromatherapy buyers. Founded in 1929, the company is headquartered in Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh with a registered office in New Delhi, and operates a single manufacturing plant in the Sahibabad Industrial Area from which it distributes worldwide via direct sales. Management is led by Founder Chairman and Managing Director Sant Kumar Sanganeria.

The company's product portfolio spans 67 essential oils, 15 vegetable oils, and 7 supercritical CO2-extracted oils, marketed under three primary lines (Fragrances, Flavours, Essential Oils) and supported by per-SKU technical documentation including GC profiles, SDS, IFRA Certificates, and Allergen Certificates. Core extraction technology includes steam distillation, cold-pressing, solvent extraction, and supercritical CO2 extraction, the last of which produces differentiated higher-purity SKUs such as Vetivert Oil CO2 and Turmeric Oil CO2.

Revenue is generated through one-time B2B sales priced via quotation (no public price list), with a sales-led go-to-market built around a website catalogue, product enquiry forms, and direct phone/email contact. The customer base is fragmented across use-case segments, with no named end-customer logos disclosed in the source data. Strategically, Ultra is differentiated by a long-standing production partnership with PT Van Aroma that has made it the world's largest exporter and producer of Indonesian Patchouli Oil in a market where Indonesia accounts for over 80% of global supply.
