1. Introduction: Cassia’s Untapped Potential Beyond Food
Round cut cassia is widely known in the culinary and tea world, but its potential stretches far beyond the food sector. Thanks to its high oil content, versatile format, and clean-label appeal, industries from fragrance to pharma are now incorporating cassia as a core ingredient.
At Tinimex, we’ve seen a significant rise in bulk inquiries from non-F&B companies—proof that round cut cassia is diversifying and expanding into high-margin sectors.

2. Industry #1: Fragrance & Aromatherapy
The cinnamaldehyde-rich essential oil in cassia bark is:
- A base note in perfumes and natural fragrances
- Widely used in diffusers, sprays, and scented candles
- Popular in both luxury and mass-market personal care
Round cut cassia is preferred because:
- It yields more oil than powder or broken formats
- Allows clean steam distillation
- Preserves aroma through stable storage
Companies in France, UAE, and India now import cassia directly for their perfumery labs.
3. Industry #2: Herbal Pharmaceuticals & Extracts
Round cut cassia is used in:
- Herbal tablets and tinctures
- Natural remedies for blood sugar, digestion, and circulation
- Ayurvedic and traditional Chinese medicine formulations
Why it’s ideal:
- Easy to dose in decoctions and boiling
- Visibly pure for compliance
- Higher extractability thanks to consistent surface area
Pharma buyers prefer round cuts for GMP-level production because of better traceability and standardization.

4. Industry #3: Incense & Spiritual Product Manufacturers
Cassia is a primary base for:
- Incense sticks and cones
- Ritual powders and oils
- Temple offerings and meditative products
Bulk buyers in India, Nepal, Indonesia, and South America rely on cassia for:
- Affordable yet potent aromatic base
- Long-lasting burn with minimal ash
- Spiritual symbolism tied to warmth and purification
Round cuts are ideal for slow infusion and blending.
5. Industry #4: Functional Wellness & Nutraceuticals
Health brands increasingly use cassia in:
- Detox teas
- Functional gummies and powders
- Daily health shots and herbal tonics
Why they choose round cut cassia:
- Premium appearance = better branding
- Visible ingredient integrity in clean-label marketing
- Allows both infusion and reprocessing
6. Why Round Cut Format Works Across Sectors
Across all industries, round cut cassia offers advantages like:
- High oil yield: Ideal for essential oils and infusions
- Shelf-stable: 18–24 month storage life when packed correctly
- Custom cut sizing: 1.5–2.5 cm or 3–6 cm for machinery and packaging
- Natural appearance: Perfect for transparency-driven marketing
These features make it flexible and functional in both production and retail contexts.
