Sourcing and specification details
Wild Yam CO2 Extract is produced in Czech Republic from Dioscorea villosa roots by supercritical carbon dioxide extraction. The viscous liquid carries INCI CO2 Dioscorea Villosa (WILD YAM) Root Extract and arrives in 5 g transport containers. CO2 Extracts are selected by supplement and food manufacturers for consistent botanical profiles. The method ensures high concentration of natural fractions suitable for precise formulation work.
Technical parameters for scale-up
Solubility occurs in polysorbate-80, carrier oils and triglycerides. Recommended input ranges from 0,05 percent in micellar waters to 1 percent in balms. Processing temperature stays below 40 degrees to protect volatile fractions. Shelf life extends to December 2028 when stored cool and dry in closed packaging. Minor thickening does not affect performance.
Integration in cosmetic laboratories
Contract manufacturers add the extract to serums, creams and body balms. It improves spreadability and supports skin barrier comfort. Wild Yam CO2 Extract 1 kg is ordered for pilot batches before full production runs. Laboratories appreciate compatibility with various emulsifiers and oil phases.
Sample serum formulation
Aloe juice 78 percent, glycerin 8 percent, emulsifier 6 percent, oil phase 7 percent, extract 0,2 percent, preservative 0,8 percent. Blend at 35 degrees until uniform and cool to room temperature before filling.
Application in hair and scalp care products
The extract is incorporated into scalp toners and conditioners to enhance distribution along hair strands. It works well in daily spray formulas where it contributes to softness and manageability without altering base viscosity.
Raw material for dietary supplements and food industry
Supplement producers and food factories worldwide purchase the extract as botanical raw material for functional beverages, confectionery fillings and dry blends. Both private formulators and industrial buyers source retail and wholesale volumes for global distribution. Botanical Extracts support development of new functional product lines and concentrated bases.
Handling and storage recommendations
Keep containers in a cool dry area. Always verify batch homogeneity before large-scale incorporation. The product remains stable under recommended conditions throughout its shelf life.
