Product Description
Sourcing and specification details
Hawthorn CO2 Extract originates from England and is obtained through supercritical fluid extraction with naturally sourced carbon dioxide. The result is a 100 g pack of oily liquid listed under INCI as Crataegus sanguinea CO2 Extract. CO2 Extracts Wholesale offers consistent quality for scaling production runs. The process avoids chemical solvents and leaves no heavy metal traces, supporting clean formulation work across multiple industries.
Technical parameters for formulation
The extract is fully fat-soluble and introduced at 0.01-2 percent into the active phase. It remains stable when added below 40 degrees Celsius after emulsification. Laboratories value the absence of solvent residues for clean-label projects. This characteristic allows even distribution in both emulsion and anhydrous bases without altering viscosity dramatically. Formulators appreciate the predictable behavior during heating and cooling cycles.
Use in cosmetic labs and supplement manufacturing
Formulators incorporate the material into creams, serums and hair balms. Hawthorn CO2 Extract 5 g supports small-batch trials before bulk orders. Supplement and food manufacturers employ it as a botanical raw material in functional blends, beverages and confectionery items. Both private formulators and industrial facilities source it at retail and wholesale volumes. The ingredient is also used as a raw material for dietary supplement production in nutraceutical and food industry applications worldwide.
Example cream formulation
A 50 g batch contains 35 g rose hydrosol, 8 g emulsifying wax, 5 g avocado oil, 1.5 g glycerin and 0.5 g hawthorn CO2 extract. The wax and oils are melted together, the hydrosol is heated separately, then phases are combined. The extract is added during cooling below 40 degrees Celsius. This method preserves the integrity of the botanical components and ensures uniform texture in the final cream. Adjustments can be made for different batch sizes while maintaining the same percentage ratios.
Storage recommendations
The product retains quality until December 2028 when kept in a cool dark place in a tightly closed container. Extracts Wholesale packaging suits international transport. Proper conditions prevent oxidation and maintain the original oily consistency over time.
Frequently asked questions
What is the recommended phase for addition?
Add during the cooling phase after emulsification to preserve volatile components.
Is the extract suitable for oil-based anhydrous systems?
Yes, it disperses evenly in oil and wax bases without additional emulsifiers.
Can it be combined with other botanical CO2 extracts?
Compatibility testing shows good results with most fat-soluble botanical extracts.
