Sourcing and specification details
Aspen bark CO2 extract (Populus tremula) is produced in the Czech Republic using supercritical CO2 technology. The resulting viscous liquid carries a characteristic odor and arrives in 100 g containers with a shelf life until June 2028. International cosmetic labs and supplement manufacturers source it for consistent batch production. CO2 Extracts Wholesale offers bulk options for scaled operations.
Technical parameters and solubility
INCI name: CO2 extracts Populus tremula. The extract dissolves readily in polysorbate-80, carrier oils and triglycerides, allowing flexible incorporation into both emulsion and anhydrous systems at temperatures below 40 °C.
Recommended usage levels
Formulators apply 0.05-0.09 % in sprays and micellar waters, 0.1-0.3 % in lifting creams, and up to 1 % in targeted balms. These percentages are introduced during the cooling phase to maintain volatile components.
Role in dietary supplement and food manufacturing
Supplement producers and food factories worldwide purchase the extract as a botanical raw material for functional beverages, confectionery items and nutritional complexes. Aspen Bark CO2 Extract 1 kg serves as an economical size for pilot batches before full-scale manufacturing.
Sample serum formulation
Aqueous phase 89 %, glycerin 5 %, polysorbate-80 5 %, extract 0.2 %, preservative 0.8 %. Combine the extract with the solubilizer first, then add to the cooled aqueous phase at 35 °C. The finished serum provides a light texture suitable for daily cosmetic routines.
Storage guidelines
Keep the product in a dry, cool environment inside a sealed container. Minor caking does not affect performance when storage conditions are observed. Extracts Wholesale provides options suited to various production scales.

One-kilogram containers are offered alongside the standard 100 g size for industrial testing and production runs.
Can the extract be combined with other CO2 extracts?
Yes, it blends compatibly with complementary botanical CO2 extracts in multi-component formulas.
Are there any temperature limits during transport?
Short-term exposure up to 35 °C during shipping does not compromise the product when original packaging remains intact.
