Product Description
Sourcing and specification details
Rhododendron ferrugineum shoots undergo supercritical CO2 extraction to yield an oily liquid raw material supplied in 1 kg transport containers produced in Ukraine. CO2 Extracts Wholesale listings provide bulk quantities for manufacturers who require consistent botanical inputs across cosmetic and supplement lines. The INCI designation Rhododendron ferrugineum together with documented composition of tannins, essential oil and fatty acids allows precise formulation planning without additional purification steps.
Composition and formulation value
Visible characteristics include a clear oily appearance that disperses readily in lipid phases. Input levels between 0.01 and 0.2 percent deliver toning and refreshing notes to finished products. Cosmetic laboratories incorporate the extract to maintain skin comfort and support surface balance in emulsions and anhydrous systems alike. Temperature during addition must remain below 40 degrees Celsius to preserve volatile fractions.
Use in supplement and food manufacturing
Producers of dietary supplements, functional beverages and confectionery items source this extract as a botanical component for enrichment of blends and bases. Both large factories and independent formulators order retail or wholesale volumes depending on batch size. Extracts Wholesale options facilitate repeated procurement cycles while meeting traceability requirements common in food-grade supply chains.
Integration in cosmetic bases
The fat-soluble nature suits incorporation into creams, serums, body balms and hair treatments where emollient properties are desired. Formulators combine it with plant butters or carrier oils to create masks that leave skin feeling soft and conditioned. Rhododendron CO2 Extract 100 g serves as an economical trial quantity before scaling to kilogram lots for pilot production.
Sample supplement blend
A practical drink formulation contains 0.05 percent extract, 3 percent fruit concentrate, 5 percent natural sweetener and 91.95 percent purified water. The mixture undergoes gentle pasteurization at 60 degrees Celsius followed by cooling and packaging under inert atmosphere to maintain oxidative stability during shelf life.
Storage guidelines
Product remains stable until December 2028 when stored in sealed containers kept cool and protected from direct light. Minimum guaranteed period reaches two years under these conditions, supporting inventory planning for both small and industrial users.
