Sourcing and specification details
Cedar CO2 Extract 1 kg is produced in Ukraine from Pinus sibirica R.Mayr needles by supercritical CO2 extraction. The resulting oily mass contains monoterpenes (α,β-pinene, camphene, limonene, carene, β-phellandrene, terpinolene), borneol, bornyl acetate, terpinyl acetate, sesquiterpenes and alcohols. CO2 Extracts Wholesale come in transport packaging suitable for international shipping. This format supports precise dosing during scaling and simplifies logistics for bulk international orders from supplement and cosmetic manufacturers.
Technical parameters for formulation
The extract is fat-soluble and added to the active phase at 0.01-2 %. It integrates into oil phases, butters and emulsions without additional solubilizers. Best before 12.2028 when kept in a clean dry place. The material maintains stability up to 40 °C, which facilitates incorporation into standard manufacturing processes across cosmetic and food industries. Extracts Wholesale supports scaling from pilot to full production runs.
Applications in cosmetic laboratories
Contract manufacturers incorporate the material into serums, body butters and masks. Example night balm: shea butter 40 %, cocoa butter 25 %, jojoba oil 30 %, Cedar CO2 Extract 2 %, tocopherol 1 %, essential oil blend 2 %. Blend at 38 °C and pour into jars. Additional combinations with other botanical oils allow creation of nutrient-rich textures suitable for daily use routines.
Use as botanical raw material for supplements and food
Dietary supplement producers and confectionery factories source the extract for functional beverages, protein bars and chocolate coatings. Cedar CO2 Extract 100 g serves for pilot batches. Typical inclusion: 0.05-0.3 % in beverages and up to 0.8 % in fat-based confectionery. This approach enables stable recipes with controlled levels of active components for consistent product profiles.
Further formulation opportunities in cosmetics
The extract performs well in body masks and after-sun products where it helps maintain skin softness and elasticity. It can be combined with glycerin or other humectants to achieve lighter textures. Manufacturers report good compatibility with wax bases when creating solid balms for targeted applications.
Stability and handling
Store below 25 °C away from light and moisture to maintain compositional integrity until the indicated date. Regular checks of organoleptic properties help preserve quality throughout the shelf life.
