Product Description
Sourcing and specification from England
Melon CO2 extract is produced in England by supercritical fluid extraction with natural carbon dioxide from peel and seeds. The resulting oily liquid carries INCI designation CO2 Melo sativus Extract and contains no solvent residues. CO2 Extracts Wholesale section lists this 100 g pack alongside larger volumes for laboratories and manufacturers.
Key physical and application parameters
The extract is fat-soluble and incorporated into the active phase at 0.01-2 %. It remains stable when stored in a cool dark place in a tightly closed container until December 2028. No heavy metals or solvent traces are present.
Integration into cosmetic laboratory workflows
Formulators add the extract to serums, body butters and hair conditioners to impart a mild fruity note while maintaining emulsion integrity at recommended usage levels.
Role as botanical raw material for dietary supplements and food production
Supplement and confectionery manufacturers worldwide purchase the extract for use as a botanical ingredient in functional blends and flavor systems. It appears in dry mixes, beverage bases and fillings where a clean-label fruit profile is required. Melon CO2 extract 1 kg serves the same purpose at industrial scale.
