Grade 1 camellia oil, farm-direct. No middlemen. No blending.
Camellia Reserve supplies cold-pressed Camellia Oleifera and Camellia Sinensis seed oils in bulk to distributors, processors, and manufacturers. The oil comes from one plantation in Lianping and Longchuan, Guangdong, and is pressed on site. We buy at the farm gate and sell direct. Every batch ships with a third-party COA, and trade coordination is handled by ZS Health Group in Hong Kong.

Documentation
Batch COA + sample drum — on request, before contract
One cultivar, one region, bought at the farm gate.
Most wholesale camellia oil is pooled from many farms and seasons before it reaches a buyer. Ours comes from one place. Every litre is pressed at the plantation, from the Guangxi Cenxi Soft Branch No. 3 cultivar grown across Lianping and Longchuan in the Wanlv Lake water-source protection zone, and sold from there. If a batch ever raises a question, we can tell you which harvest it came from.

Grove
Oil-tea is slow. A seed set in autumn ripens the following autumn, roughly 490 days on the tree, which is why you can stand in the grove in November and see white blossom and ripe fruit on the same branch. The long maturation is what builds the oil.
-
Harvest
Seeds are sun-dried and husked by hand. Moisture has to come down below 10% before pressing; damp seed is where mould and aflatoxin start.
-
Pressing
The press room is a modern smoke-free facility, but the method is the local Hakka small-batch press, run at low temperature. The oil ships as it leaves the press.
-
Testing
Each batch goes to an independent laboratory [PLACEHOLDER: laboratory name] and is tested against GB/T 11765-2018: acid value, peroxide value, heavy metals, benzo[a]pyrene, and aflatoxin B1. The certificate carries the batch number and travels with the shipment.

Shipping
ZS Health Group in Hong Kong handles contracts, documentation, and freight booking. Export registration is in progress; we state the current status and a realistic lead time in every quotation.
Two oils, sold as pressed.
Both oils are cold-pressed at Grade 1 and ship exactly as they leave the press. Buyers who need cosmetic grade run their own refining. Batch COAs, technical data sheets, and sample drums are available for evaluation.
Camellia Oil
Botanical identity: Camellia Oleifera Seed Oil (INCI)
Cultivar: Guangxi Cenxi Soft Branch No. 3
A golden, neutral-scented oil, about 80% monounsaturated fatty acids — a higher oleic share than olive oil. It stays stable above 210°C, so it runs in high-heat food processing. Low acid and peroxide values leave a wide margin for buyers refining to their own specification. The INCI name identifies the botanical; the grade is stated on the COA.

Green Tea Seed Oil
Botanical identity: Camellia Sinensis Seed Oil (INCI)
Pressed from tea-plant seed, not oil-tea fruit
Pressed from the seed of the green tea plant rather than oil-tea fruit. It is lighter than the flagship oil and carries the tea plant's polyphenols and squalene along with Vitamin E. Same growing regime, same testing. Most buyers evaluate it as a specialty feedstock for personal-care manufacturing after in-house refining, or for wellness and culinary lines.

What you can check before you commit.
Typical wholesale route
Farm → aggregator → refinery → blender → trader → you
Five hand-offs. Each adds margin and lead time, and the origin information thins out at every step.
Camellia Reserve
Lianping / Longchuan plantation → pressed at source → you
No hand-offs. We buy at the farm gate. The oil is pressed on site, and the next holder after us is the buyer.
Farm-direct
Bought at the farm gate
We purchase directly from the Lianping / Longchuan plantation and sell the oil ourselves. That is the whole chain. It is also why the cultivar, the plantation, and the batch number can sit on every document we issue.
Traceability
Single cultivar, single origin
Every batch comes from one award-recognised cultivar on one plantation base. You know the variety, the region, and the harvest behind each drum, and you can carry that provenance into your own documentation.
Verification
Third-party COA with every shipment
Results come from an independent laboratory, with the batch number on the certificate. Heavy metals, benzo[a]pyrene, and aflatoxin B1 have returned “not detected” on every batch to date. Ask for the sample drum from the same batch and check the numbers yourself.
Cultivation
Manual weeding, natural fertiliser
The plantation sits inside the Wanlv Lake water-source protection zone. Weeding is done by hand and fertilisation is natural manure. Visitors are welcome. The photographs on this page were taken there in December 2025.

Questions buyers ask before ordering.
If yours isn't covered here, include it in your quotation request and we'll answer it there.
Is this cosmetic-grade oil?
No. This is Grade 1 cold-pressed oil that has not been through cosmetic refinement. It is suitable as feedstock for buyers refining to cosmetic grade on their own lines, and for direct culinary and industrial use. The INCI names on this site identify the botanical — they are not a grade claim.
Who sits between you and the farm?
No one. The oil is bought directly from the Lianping / Longchuan plantation and pressed at source. There is no aggregator, no third-party refinery, and no blending house in the chain — which is why every batch traces to one cultivar and one harvest.
Why isn't pricing published?
Bulk pricing depends on volume band (trial / scale / strategic), packaging format, and incoterms, so we release numbers with a quotation rather than publishing a list price. Request bulk pricing below and we'll respond with tonnage MOQs and FOB terms for your band.
What's your export status and lead time?
Trade coordination — contracts, documentation, freight — is handled by ZS Health Group in Hong Kong. Export registration is currently in progress. We share the current status and realistic lead times with every quotation, before you commit to anything.
Can I evaluate before committing to tonnage?
Yes. A sample drum with its matching batch COA and technical data sheet is available on request, before contract — run your own laboratory verification and line trials first.
