Sourcing and specifications from Germany
Black Currant Extract Powder originates from Germany and arrives in 10 g packs as a fine powder carrying INCI Black Currant Extract Powder (and) Maltodextrin. Powdered Extracts and Algae section lists similar botanical concentrates suited for consistent laboratory and manufacturing use. The material supports repeatable results across small and scaled batches thanks to its stable dry form.
Physical properties and solubility profile
The powder dissolves readily in hot water or polysorbate-80, leaving a possible faint sediment. Input occurs below 40 degrees Celsius to protect heat-sensitive compounds, making the material compatible with emulsions, gels and sprays at 1-1.5 percent. This profile suits both clear liquids and thicker textures without altering base properties.
Formulation roles for cosmetic laboratories
Contract manufacturers incorporate the extract into antioxidant serums, toners and body masks. It pairs with complementary botanical powders to create balanced textures for face and hair care lines without altering base viscosity. Black Currant Extract Powder 1 kg enables seamless transition from pilot tests to full production runs.

Food industry clients add it to beverages, jellies and confectionery fillings to achieve natural color and flavor notes. Worldwide buyers value the powder for its ease of handling in both retail and wholesale settings.
Recommended usage percentages and phase addition
