Sourcing and specification focus
Sea buckthorn CO2 extract is produced in England by supercritical fluid extraction with natural carbon dioxide. The 100 g pack suits laboratories and manufacturers seeking consistent batches. CO2 Extracts Wholesale meet the INCI Hippophae Rhamnoides Pulp CO2 Extract standard without solvent residues.
Each batch maintains identical physical and chemical parameters, which is critical for scale-up from pilot to industrial production. The absence of heavy metals and residual solvents simplifies regulatory compliance for global markets. Extracts Wholesale section provides options for larger volumes when needed.
Physical properties and value
The oily mass with waxy inclusions carries carotenoids, tocopherols and unsaturated fatty acids without solvent residues. This composition supports stable performance in both cosmetic emulsions and food-grade blends. Manufacturers appreciate the natural golden hue it imparts to finished products.
The extract remains stable when incorporated below 45 °C, preserving the full spectrum of lipophilic actives throughout shelf life.
Applications for supplement and food manufacturers
B2B buyers use the material as a botanical ingredient in dietary supplements and functional foods across global markets. CO2 Extracts also serve confectionery and beverage producers needing natural flavour and colour components. Private formulators and large factories incorporate it into oils, dry mixes and nutritional products.
Recommended dosage and incorporation
Fat-soluble extract is added to the cooling phase below 45 °C at 0,05-0,2 % levels. Higher percentages suit intensive serums and hair masks. Compatibility with plant oils and other CO2 extracts allows flexible formulation adjustments.
Example hair and scalp serum
Jojoba oil 70 %, argan oil 27 %, sea buckthorn CO2 extract 0,2 %, tocopherol 0,8 %, essential oil blend 2 %. Blend oils at 35 °C, add extract and mix until uniform.
Storage guidelines
Keep in a cool dark place in tightly closed container until December 2028. Proper storage protects the carotenoid content from degradation by light and oxygen.
