Overview
Meadowlactone (CAS 110071-67-5 ), also known as Meadowfoam delta lactone and S-HETEL, is a naturally derived lactone obtained from meadowfoam seed oil. It delivers a distinctive creamy, coconut-like aroma profile that positions it as a premium ingredient in fragrance and flavor development.
In fine fragrance and personal care formulations, it contributes warm, milky-coconut nuances to perfumes, body lotions, and hair care products where a natural-origin claim adds commercial value.
Flavor houses use it to build creamy, tropical, and dairy-adjacent profiles in confectionery, baked goods, and beverage applications. Its lactone character makes it effective at low use levels, supporting cost-efficient formulation.
This ingredient is highly effective in both leave-on and rinse-off cosmetic systems. Formulators in natural and clean-label product lines source it specifically as a plant-derived alternative to synthetic coconut and lactonic aroma chemicals.
The product is supplied as a liquid, typically at high purity grades suited to both fragrance and flavor end uses. Food-grade material is available for flavor applications, with supply conforming to FEMA -recognized usage standards.
Quantities range from small fragrance-house samples through to bulk commercial volumes depending on supplier. This versatile material ensures consistent performance across a wide variety of industrial and consumer applications.
