Product Description
Sourcing and specification of Sage CO2 Extract
Supercritical CO2 extraction of Clary Sage (Salvia sclarea) Leaf from England yields a 100 g pack of oily mass with waxy inclusions and characteristic odor. The process uses natural carbon dioxide and leaves no solvent residues. CO2 Extracts Wholesale section lists this and related concentrates for consistent batch supply to manufacturers. International buyers can also review options in Extracts Wholesale for bulk planning.
Technical parameters for formulation work
The extract is fat-soluble and dosed at 0.01-0.5 percent into the active phase. Temperature must stay below 40-45 degrees Celsius to preserve volatile compounds. Shelf life extends to December 2028 when stored cool, dry and protected from light.
Role in dietary supplement and food manufacturing
Supplement producers and food factories worldwide purchase the material as a botanical raw ingredient for functional blends, beverages and confectionery. CO2 Extracts provide stable aromatic and antioxidant properties in dry mixes and liquid products without altering texture. This raw material supports clean-label formulations across global supply chains.
