Product Description
Sourcing and specification details
Birch bark sourced in England undergoes supercritical CO2 extraction to yield an oily liquid known as Betula Pendula [CO2] Extract. The 100 g pack contains no solvent residues or heavy metals. International buyers sourcing botanical ingredients often review CO2 Extracts Wholesale listings first to compare extraction methods and lot consistency.
Technical parameters for formulation
The extract remains stable when added in the active phase below 35-45 °C. Fat solubility allows direct incorporation into oil-based or emulsified systems without additional carriers. These parameters support reproducible results in both cosmetic and food-grade batches.
Applications across cosmetic labs and supplement manufacturers
Cosmetic laboratories incorporate the material into serums, body butters and scalp treatments. Birch Bark CO2 Extract 1 kg serves pilot-scale trials before larger production. Supplement and food industry factories purchase the same ingredient as botanical raw material for dietary supplements, functional beverages and confectionery blends, meeting demand from both private formulators and industrial plants worldwide.
Input levels and solubility guidance
Cosmetic formulas typically use 0.1-0.5 % concentration. Food and supplement developers adjust levels according to the final matrix while staying within fat-soluble systems. Temperature control during processing protects volatile fractions.
Sample hair and scalp conditioning blend
A leave-in scalp oil contains 0.35 % CO2 extract, 25 % jojoba oil, 40 % squalane and 34.65 % caprylic/capric triglyceride. Ingredients are combined at 30 °C, then filled into dropper bottles. The blend delivers a uniform texture suitable for daily application.
Storage conditions and shelf life
Store in a cool dark location inside a tightly closed container. Shelf life extends to December 2028 under proper conditions. Extracts Wholesale shipments arrive in transport packaging designed for bulk inventory management.
Frequently asked questions
What extraction method ensures solvent-free quality?
Supercritical fluid extraction with natural carbon dioxide produces a residue-free oily liquid.
Is the extract suitable for water-based toners?
No, fat solubility requires an oil or emulsion phase for even distribution.
Can manufacturers use it in functional food products?
Yes, the material serves as botanical raw material in dietary supplement and confectionery formulations.
Which documentation accompanies each batch?
Each lot includes specification sheets confirming origin, extraction parameters and analytical purity data.
