Frequently Asked Questions
What is neutral alcohol?
Neutral alcohol, often called extra neutral alcohol or ENA, is a very pure form of ethanol with a neutral taste and odour. It is widely used as a base for spirits, flavourings, pharmaceutical products and cosmetic formulations where a clean profile is required.
What is the difference between neutral alcohol and industrial ethanol?
Neutral alcohol is food grade and suitable for human consumption and sensitive applications, such as food, beverage, pharmaceutical and cosmetic products. Industrial ethanol is used for non-food purposes, for example, in chemical processes, electronics cleaning and fuel and energy applications, and is usually denatured.
What is ENA 96?
ENA 96 is extra neutral alcohol with a typical strength of about 96% by volume. It has a very neutral sensory profile and is commonly used in spirits, liqueurs, flavour production and pharmaceutical and cosmetic products.
Do you supply organic neutral alcohol?
Yes, Nedstar supplies organic neutral alcohol produced from certified organic raw materials. It is suitable for organic food and beverage products as well as natural and organic cosmetic ranges. We provide the certificates and documentation you need to support your claims.
