What is D-Limonene?
D-Limonene is a hydrocarbon that is naturally occurring in the rinds of citrus fruits, particularly oranges. It can also be found in grapefruits, lemons, and limes.
This terpene is actually a component of the oils derived from the rind through one of two extraction processes: Centrifungal Separation or Steam Distillation. D-Limonene is also colorless and has a very low toxicity, which is why it is safe cleaner to use around pets and children (AND adults!) D-Limonene is also used in various ingestible forms as it is used for medicinal purposes as well! (fancy that!) D-Limonene has replaced a lot of the cleaners that contain bleach, because it does not emit the harmful vapor. It is known as a degreaser and deodorizer, so it naturally cleans and emits a citrusy fragrance. Plus, it can get rid of those old carpet stains, chewing gum residues, and other things found in your carpet, as well as cleaning hardwood flooring and tile!
