Product Description
Sourcing and specification focus
Turmeric CO2 Extract originates from England through supercritical fluid extraction with natural carbon dioxide. The resulting oily liquid contains a high concentration of curcuminoids and essential oils without solvent residues. CO2 Extracts of this grade meet strict purity standards required by supplement and food manufacturers. The 5 g pack size supports initial trials before scaling to larger volumes such as Turmeric CO2 Extract 100 g.
Technical parameters for formulators
INCI name Turmeric CO2 Extract identifies a fat-soluble material introduced at 0.1-0.5 percent in the active phase. Shelf life extends to December 2028 when stored in a dry cool place inside a sealed container protected from light. These details allow precise planning for both cosmetic labs and dietary supplement production lines worldwide.
Integration into cosmetic and personal care
Manufacturers incorporate the extract into serums, creams and body products to achieve a warm hue and support antioxidant capacity. Addition occurs at temperatures below 40 degrees Celsius to preserve volatile fractions. Compatibility with carrier oils and other botanical concentrates simplifies formula development for international cosmetic brands. Further options appear in the Botanical Extracts section.
Role as raw material in supplements and food
Supplement producers and food factories purchase this concentrate as a botanical ingredient for functional beverages, sauces and confectionery items. Private formulators and industrial buyers use the small pack for recipe validation prior to bulk orders. The solvent-free profile aligns with clean-label requirements across global markets.
Example formulation for a dietary blend
Combine 80 g of carrier oil with 0.4 g of the turmeric extract and 0.6 g of rosehip CO2 extract. Add 0.3 g of tocopherol and mix until uniform. The resulting blend serves as a base for soft-gel capsules or functional oil drops intended for dietary supplement lines. Store finished batches in amber containers away from heat.
Handling and long-term stability
Sealed packaging and light protection maintain the original color intensity and aroma profile throughout the declared shelf life. Temperature fluctuations during transport should be minimized to avoid oxidation. These practices ensure consistent performance in both pilot and commercial production.
