Product Description
Sourcing and specification details
Produced in England via supercritical CO2 extraction from apricot kernels, the oily liquid carries INCI CO2 Armeniaca vulgaris extract and contains no solvent residues. CO2 Extracts of this grade meet the needs of laboratories requiring consistent botanical inputs for scale-up trials. The 5 g pack supports initial formulation testing across multiple batches. This approach minimizes variability when moving from pilot runs to full production volumes.
Functional value in industrial formulas
The fat-soluble concentrate is added to the active phase below 40 °C at 0.5-3 % of total batch weight. It integrates into emulsions, serums and anhydrous systems without altering viscosity or stability profiles. Formulators monitor dispersion during mixing to achieve uniform distribution throughout the batch. Large-scale operations often run compatibility tests with various carriers to confirm performance under different processing conditions.
Applications for supplement and food manufacturers
Cosmetic labs incorporate the extract into creams, masks and hair treatments. Apricot CO2 Extract 100 g serves buyers moving from pilot to production volumes. Supplement and confectionery factories source it as botanical raw material for functional beverages and flavor systems. Procurement teams prioritize traceable origins and consistent quality across shipments. This ensures the final products meet regulatory standards in multiple markets worldwide.
Example formulation for a dietary supplement blend
Carrier oil 92 g, tocopherol 2 g, this extract 3 g and natural flavor 3 g. Blend at room temperature until uniform, then fill into capsules or softgels. Production teams document each addition step to maintain traceability from raw material to finished batch. Such records support audits and help refine future formulations based on performance data.
Storage recommendations
Keep sealed in a cool dark place until 12.2028. Botanical Extracts in small packs allow cost-effective validation before committing to larger inventories. Warehouses maintain controlled environments to protect against temperature fluctuations that could affect shelf stability. Regular inspections help identify any issues early and maintain product integrity over time.
