Product Description
Sourcing and specification of Rhodiola quadrifida CO2 extract
Produced in Czechia via supercritical CO2 extraction, the viscous liquid carries the INCI designation CO2 extracts Rhodiola quadrifida. The 100 g pack maintains a characteristic odor and remains stable until June 2028 when stored in a cool dry place. CO2 Extracts Wholesale section supports scaling for laboratories and factories. The material dissolves readily in polysorbate-80, oils and triglycerides.
Formulation parameters and input levels
Recommended percentages range from 0.05-0.09 % in sprays and micellar waters to 0.5-1 % in balms. Processing temperature stays below 40 °C in the oil phase. The extract supplies moisture, smooths skin surface and supports tone in finished products. Minor caking during storage does not affect performance.
Applications in cosmetic laboratories
Contract manufacturers incorporate the ingredient into creams, serums, masks and body care. Example hair and scalp emulsion: 70 % water phase, 20 % oil phase, 5 % emulsifier, 4 % humectant, 1 % extract. Blend the extract into the oil phase at 35 °C, homogenize and cool. This approach ensures even distribution and long-term stability.
Raw material for dietary supplements and food production
Supplement manufacturers and confectionery plants worldwide source the extract as a botanical ingredient for functional blends and beverages. Red Brush CO2 Extract 1 kg facilitates larger batches. Extracts Wholesale category lists additional pack sizes for B2B clients.
Storage, handling and quality checks
