Who We Are
At the Heart of Every Venture Is a Story: Here’s Ours.
CitPeels Naturals Private Limited is a research-driven green chemistry company developing next-generation bio-enzyme technologies for the home and institutional care industry.
We operate at the intersection of industrial biotechnology, fermentation science, and circular economy, transforming citrus waste into high-performance, non-toxic cleaning actives. Our work focuses on building scalable, industrially viable alternatives to conventional chemical cleaners, without compromising on efficacy, safety, or consistency.
We don’t just formulate cleaners, we engineer sustainable chemical systems backed by science.
Our Origin
Cit-Peels was born out of two persistent challenges:
01 The extensive use of harsh chemical cleaners that contribute to indoor air pollution, health risks, and environmental toxicity
02 The large-scale wastage of citrus fruits, where nearly one-third of each fruit becomes waste—amounting to millions of tons annually in India
We saw an opportunity to solve both problems through applied science: converting citrus waste into functional bio-enzymes using controlled fermentation and formulation engineering.

FAQ’S
Have Questions? We’ve Got Answers
What is Green Chemistry?
Green Chemistry focuses on designing products and processes that reduce or eliminate the use and generation of hazardous substances throughout a product’s life cycle. At Cit-Peels, we apply green chemistry principles to create safe, effective cleaning solutions derived from renewable biological sources.
What are green chemicals?
Green chemicals are non-toxic, biodegradable substances made from renewable resources. Cit-Peels green chemicals are powered by bio-enzymes derived from citrus waste, offering high cleaning performance without harmful residues.
How are Cit-Peels products safe for humans and the environment?
Cit-Peels products are formulated without harsh acids, chlorine, or petroleum-based solvents. Our bio-enzyme technology is skin-safe when used as directed, low-VOC, biodegradable, and safe for wastewater systems and aquatic life.
How are green chemicals useful for housekeeping and institutional cleaning?
Cit-Peels green cleaners are effective for floor, toilet, kitchen, and surface cleaning. They control odours, break down grease naturally, and are safe for daily use in homes, hotels, hospitals, and institutions.
Why choose Cit-Peels Naturals?
Cit-Peels operates at the intersection of green chemistry, biotechnology, and circular economy. We convert citrus waste into high-performance bio-enzymes, offering scalable and sustainable cleaning solutions.
Why use bio-enzyme-based cleaners instead of toxic chemical cleaners?
Bio-enzyme cleaners break down dirt naturally, leave no harmful residues, improve indoor air quality, and are safer for long-term use compared to conventional chemical cleaners.
How do toxins from conventional cleaners enter our bodies?
Toxins can enter through skin contact, inhalation of fumes, and residues left on surfaces. Cit-Peels products help reduce this exposure by eliminating harsh and persistent chemicals.
Are Cit-Peels products cost-effective?
Cit-Peels products require lower quantities per use, offer long-lasting cleaning action, and reduce long-term health and environmental costs, making them economical over time.
