Sweet Clover CO2 Concentrate Built for Bulk Cosmetic and Fragrance Manufacturing
The 1 kg package of sweet clover CO2 extract is intended for manufacturers who work with large production runs and need a reliable supply of concentrated botanical actives for ongoing formulation. This extract is obtained through carbon dioxide extraction of the flowering tops of sweet clover, a method that preserves the plant's natural bioactive compounds without exposing them to heat degradation. Manufacturers across the natural and organic cosmetics segment favor CO2 extraction specifically because it leaves no residual solvents in the finished concentrate, which matters for clean-label formulations. This product belongs to the CO2 Extracts section, a collection of concentrated botanicals used across professional skincare, fragrance, and functional product development.
The primary industrial use of sweet clover extract is in skincare formulations aimed at sensitive, redness-prone, and reactive skin types, as well as in toning serums and calming creams. The coumarins and flavonoids naturally present in sweet clover have long been valued in cosmetic chemistry for their ability to support microcirculation and contribute to a healthier-looking complexion with consistent use. Beyond skincare, the extract is widely applied in the fragrance industry as a component of herbal-honey accords, and it also appears in aromatic sachets, natural deodorant bases, and aromatherapy blends. In smaller niche categories, formulators add it to scalp and hair care products, where its comprehensive action on the scalp environment is appreciated.
When building a formula, sweet clover extract should be added at the final stage, once the base emulsion has cooled to no more than 40 degrees, to protect its heat-sensitive compounds from breakdown. A typical working concentration in finished products ranges from 0.5 to 3 percent, depending on the product type and the intensity of action desired. The extract pairs well with carrier oils, hydrosols, and other CO2 concentrates - for instance with the CO2 extract for mature skin to build layered anti-aging formulas, or with Clove CO2 Extract to intensify the warming, aromatic profile of fragrance and skincare compositions.
For laboratories and small studios that need a smaller quantity for trial batches or formula testing before scaling up, the same extract is also available as CO2 extract of sweet clover 5 g, a convenient option for pilot runs without committing to a bulk order.
The extract should be stored in a tightly sealed container, in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and temperature fluctuations, ideally not exceeding 25 degrees. Under proper storage conditions, the product retains its declared properties for the full shelf life stated by the manufacturer. Once opened, it is best used within a reasonable period, minimizing exposure to air and moisture.

the gel base, then let the mixture cool to room temperature before adding the
niacinamide powder and sweet clover CO2 extract, mixing thoroughly until fully
