Sourcing and specification details for B2B buyers
Violets CO2 Extract is produced in England by supercritical fluid extraction from Viola tricolor flowers and leaves. The resulting oily liquid contains no solvent residues and arrives in 5 g packs suitable for pilot testing. CO2 Extracts meet the needs of laboratories seeking concentrated botanical materials with consistent quality and clean profiles. International manufacturers value this sourcing origin for reliable supply chains.
Technical parameters and formulation guidelines
INCI Viola tricolor Flower CO2 Extract. The product is 100 percent natural, fat-soluble and dosed at 0,01 to 5 percent into the active phase of emulsions below 40 degrees Celsius. Shelf life extends to December 2028 when stored cool and dark in a tightly closed container. These parameters support stable integration across multiple batch sizes without compromising volatile components.
Role in cosmetic laboratory development
Formulators incorporate the extract into serums, toners, body butters and hair care products to impart a delicate floral note. Its concentrated character allows minimal usage rates while delivering a clean botanical profile suitable for both retail and professional cosmetic lines. The material pairs effectively with other plant-derived concentrates in emulsion systems.
Application in supplements and food manufacturing
Supplement and confectionery producers source this material as a botanical ingredient for functional blends, beverages and flavored confections. Violets CO2 Extract 100 g supports scaling from pilot batches to larger runs for global manufacturers. Wholesale buyers appreciate the absence of synthetic additives in their formulations. Bulk options include Violets CO2 Extract 1 kg for production needs.
Sample hair tonic formulation
Rosemary hydrosol 70 percent, distilled water 25 percent, extract 0,5 percent, preservative as required 0,5 percent. Combine liquids, add extract at 35 degrees Celsius, stir until uniform and package. This example illustrates straightforward incorporation into aqueous systems for daily use products.
Handling and stability considerations
Small pack size suits pilot testing in cosmetic labs and food development teams. Proper storage prevents degradation of volatile aromatic compounds during extended projects and ensures batch-to-batch consistency for contract manufacturers. Botanical Extracts provide options across extraction types for varied applications.
