This extraction method ensures maximum retention of volatile compounds without thermal degradation or chemical solvents.
Technical parameters for formulators
The ingredient is fat-soluble and added to the active phase at 0.01-2 percent. It remains stable when introduced below 40 degrees Celsius and supports consistent aroma in finished batches. Manufacturers value the absence of impurities and the clean profile that integrates seamlessly into emulsions and oil-based systems.
Use in supplement and food manufacturing
Supplement producers and confectionery factories source this concentrate as a botanical raw material for functional beverages, tea blends and dietary supplements. It delivers a mild herbal-citrus note suitable for clean-label products. Botanical Extracts section offers complementary materials to expand such formulations across global supply chains.
Cosmetic laboratory applications
Contract manufacturers incorporate the extract into serums, body balms and scalp treatments. It contributes to skin comfort and a fresh sensory profile without altering emulsion viscosity, making it versatile for both small-batch and industrial production. The concentrate pairs effectively with other CO2 materials for balanced sensory outcomes.
