Sourcing and specification of Cherry CO2 extract
Produced in Ukraine from Cerasus vulgaris L. fruit, the extract reaches laboratories and manufacturers as an oily mass in 100 g transport packaging. CO2 Extracts Wholesale preserve terpenes, tannins, vitamin PP and polyunsaturated fatty acids through supercritical extraction. The product carries a distinct fruity note suitable for both cosmetic and food-grade formulations.
Technical parameters for B2B buyers
International supplement and cosmetic producers value the extract for its stability up to 40 degrees Celsius and good incorporation into oil phases. The absence of solvent residues meets requirements of dietary supplement and functional food factories worldwide. Extracts Wholesale offers bulk options for repeated orders.
Formulation use in cosmetic laboratories
Cosmetic labs introduce the extract at 0.2-2 percent during the cooling phase of emulsions. It refreshes and tones skin while supporting overall formula texture. Cherry CO2 extract 1 kg is ordered for pilot batches of serums, body balms and scalp treatments.
Role as raw material for dietary supplements and food
Manufacturers of dietary supplements and confectionery purchase the extract as a botanical ingredient for functional beverages and dry blends. It serves as an aromatic and flavor component without health claims, meeting food-grade standards applied by global factories.
Dosage guidelines and solubility
In cosmetic emulsions the recommended level ranges from 0.2 to 2 percent added below 40 degrees Celsius. Food applications start at 0.05 percent and adjust according to sensory profile. The material disperses readily in lipid phases and requires pre-dispersion in glycols for aqueous systems.
Example formulation: hair and scalp serum
A 100 g serum contains 1.5 g Cherry CO2 extract, 20 g argan oil, 5 g vitamin E and 73.5 g caprylic/capric triglyceride. The extract is first dispersed in the triglyceride at 35 degrees, then combined with remaining oils. The finished serum is packaged in dark dropper bottles and applied to scalp twice weekly.
Storage conditions and shelf life
Keep the closed container in a cool, light-protected area at 15-25 degrees Celsius. Shelf life reaches at least two years from production, with best-before date December 2028.
