Bulk Citrus Concentrate Built for Continuous Cosmetic Production Lines
The one kilogram package of grapefruit CO2 extract is designed for manufacturers who need a stable, predictable supply of raw material for continuous production of cosmetics, fragrances, and scented goods. This volume lets formulation teams work without frequent reordering and without the risk of a production stop caused by a shortage of a key ingredient. The extract is obtained through low-temperature carbon dioxide extraction, a method that preserves volatile aromatic compounds and active constituents from the peel and pulp that are often partially lost during conventional distillation. This is why the product belongs to a premium sourcing category, and similar concentrates are gathered together in the CO2 Extracts section of our catalog.
The strongest demand for grapefruit CO2 concentrate comes from the personal care industry: toning serums, anti-cellulite and firming creams, shower gels, formulations for oily and problem skin, and hair care products with sebum-balancing properties. The citrus aroma is also widely used in the fragrance industry as a fresh top note in perfume compositions, as well as in air fresheners and household chemical products. A separate area of demand is the food industry, where the extract serves as a natural flavoring for beverages, confectionery, and desserts thanks to its rich, authentic grapefruit taste and scent, free from alcohol-based residues. In aromatherapy the extract is blended into mixtures intended to support alertness and mental focus.
Recommended dosage in cosmetic emulsions ranges from 0.1 to 0.5 percent of the total formula weight, while in fragrance compositions the proportion depends on the overall concept, and in food applications only minimal amounts are needed. The extract should be added at the final stage of production, once the mixture has cooled below forty degrees Celsius, to avoid losing volatile aromatic components to heat. It pairs well with other CO2 concentrates: in anti-cellulite and drainage complexes it is frequently combined with burdock CO2 extract, which enhances the drainage effect, while for problem skin formulations echinacea CO2 extract serves as a calming partner ingredient. For warm, spicy fragrance blends and gourmand-style compositions, grapefruit combines interestingly with nutmeg CO2 extract.
Store the extract in a tightly sealed dark glass or metal container, in a cool place away from direct sunlight, at a temperature not exceeding twenty five degrees Celsius, and away from heat sources and open flame. When these storage conditions are respected, the product retains its properties over an extended period, which matters greatly when purchasing larger volumes for planned production runs.
Refreshing Citrus Body Mist Base
Distilled water 850 ml
Grapefruit CO2 extract 3 g
Propylene glycol 60 g
Solubilizer 40 g
Preservative 7 g
Combine the solubilizer with the grapefruit extract first, stirring until fully blended, then add propylene glycol and mix again until the mixture becomes clear. Slowly pour in the distilled water while stirring continuously, then add the preservative last. Let the finished mist rest for twenty four hours at room temperature before bottling to allow the fragrance to settle evenly throughout the solution.
