Product Description
Sourcing and extraction specifications
Horse chestnut CO2 extract is produced in England by supercritical fluid extraction with natural carbon dioxide. The resulting oily liquid contains no solvent residues or heavy metals and is supplied in 100 g containers. CO2 Extracts Wholesale section lists options for laboratories and manufacturers seeking consistent botanical raw material. This method ensures high purity suitable for regulated industries.
Technical parameters for formulation
The extract is oil-soluble and recommended at 0.05-1% in the active phase. This dosage range integrates smoothly into emulsions without altering viscosity. Storage in a cool dark place in tightly closed packaging maintains quality until 11.2028. CO2 Extracts offer reliable performance across multiple application areas due to their concentrated profile.
Integration in cosmetic bases
Formulators add the ingredient to creams, serums and body balms. It contributes to skin toning and comfort in leave-on products. The lipid nature allows direct incorporation into oil phases of emulsions for face and body care lines. Cosmetic labs appreciate the neutral impact on final texture and color stability over time.
Raw material for supplements and food production
Supplement and confectionery manufacturers worldwide purchase the extract as a botanical component for functional blends and beverages. Horse Chestnut CO2 Extract 1 kg supports larger scale production runs. Factories value the absence of solvent traces for clean label compliance in dietary products.
Sample dietary supplement blend
A 500 g batch contains 1.5 g extract, 150 g vegetable glycerin, 200 g maltodextrin and 148.5 g natural flavor. The extract is first dissolved in glycerin, then blended with remaining powders. The mixture is filled into capsules or sachets for retail distribution. This example shows compatibility with both liquid and dry delivery formats.
Stability and handling guidelines
Keep containers away from direct light and heat. Proper storage preserves color, aroma and flow properties throughout the declared shelf life. Regular inspection of seals prevents moisture ingress that could affect consistency.
