Sourcing and specification profile
CO2 Linden Extract is obtained from Tilia cordata Mill flowers and leaves by supercritical fluid extraction with natural carbon dioxide. The oily liquid contains flavonoids, PUFAs, terpenes, tocopherol and phytosterols without solvent residues. Product is supplied in 100 g transport packaging, country of production Ukraine. This raw material meets requirements of cosmetic labs and dietary supplement manufacturers seeking consistent botanical inputs for global production lines. CO2 Extracts Wholesale ensures traceability from harvest to final packing for bulk buyers.
Technical parameters for formulators
The fat-soluble extract is introduced into the active phase at 0.6-2 percent. It works in creams, lotions, masks, serums, shower gels and emulsions. Solubility in lipid phases allows even distribution during emulsification at moderate temperatures up to 45 degrees Celsius. CO2 Linden Extract 5 g is convenient for laboratory trials and small batches where precise dosing verification is required before scale-up. Formulators appreciate the absence of heavy metals and residual solvents that supports clean-label positioning in finished goods.
Botanical raw material for supplements and food
Private formulators, dietary supplement manufacturers and food factories purchase the extract worldwide as botanical raw material for dietary supplements and functional food products. It is incorporated into drinks, confectionery and dry blends without altering texture or introducing off-notes. Extracts Wholesale is available for both retail and bulk orders, allowing manufacturers to maintain supply continuity across seasonal demand fluctuations in the functional nutrition sector.
Example formulation for a body lotion
Water phase 68 percent, oil phase 27 percent, CO2 Linden Extract 1.2 percent in the active phase, emulsifier 3.8 percent. Ingredients are combined at 40 degrees Celsius until homogeneous. The resulting emulsion demonstrates stable viscosity and pleasant skin feel after application. Additional humectants may be introduced in the water phase to adjust final sensory profile without affecting extract performance. This base serves as a starting point for customization in both cosmetic and topical supplement-adjacent products.
Storage conditions and shelf life
Store in a cool dark place in a tightly closed container until December 2028. After opening use within 12 months. Temperature fluctuations should be minimized to preserve the volatile fraction of terpenes and tocopherol content. Proper handling prevents oxidation and maintains consistent performance in subsequent production runs across multiple facilities.
Additional considerations for industrial use
Compatibility testing with various emulsification systems confirms reliable integration in both hot and cold process methods. The extract contributes to formula stability when combined with common cosmetic esters and butters. Manufacturers note predictable behavior in pH ranges typical for leave-on and rinse-off applications, supporting broad formulation flexibility.
Frequently asked questions
Is the extract compatible with other CO2 extracts?
Yes, the product integrates well with other fat-soluble extracts in the same phase, allowing layered botanical profiles in single emulsions.
How does it behave in dry blends for supplements?
The extract disperses evenly in dry functional mixtures intended for beverages and confectionery, providing uniform distribution of active markers.
What temperature limits apply during processing?
Recommended incorporation temperature does not exceed 45 degrees Celsius to preserve active components and avoid degradation of sensitive terpenes.
Can the material be used in both cosmetic and food grade lines?
Yes, the same lot serves dual purposes when documentation supports food-grade raw material status for supplement and confectionery applications.
