Sourcing and specification for manufacturers
Apricot CO2 extract is produced from Armeniaca vulgaris fruit by supercritical extraction. The resulting oily mass contains tannins, vitamins P and PP, provitamin A and fatty oil. Each batch is supplied in 100 g transport packaging from Ukraine. CO2 Extracts Wholesale offers identical material in larger volumes for industrial use. International buyers value consistent quality across retail and bulk orders.
Technical parameters and integration
The extract is fat-soluble and added to the oil phase. INCI name CO2 Armeniaca vulgaris extract ensures consistent performance in emulsions cooled below 40 °C. Recommended input level is 0,5-3 % in cosmetic formulas and 0,2-1 % in food blends. Stability remains high when stored according to label conditions.
Role in supplement and food formulations
Supplement manufacturers and food factories incorporate the extract as a botanical raw material in functional beverages, dry mixes and confectionery. It integrates without altering base flavor profiles and meets requirements for both retail and wholesale supply chains worldwide. The same material is used as raw material for dietary supplement production in multiple countries.
Cosmetic laboratory applications
Cosmetic labs use the ingredient in serums, body butters and hair conditioners. It improves spreadability and supports skin softness. The material remains stable when stored in a tightly closed container in a cool dark place for at least two years. Apricot CO2 Extract 5 g is ideal for initial compatibility trials before scaling.
