Carrot CO2 Extract 1 kg

Why Carrot CO2 Extract Is a Reliable Bulk Ingredient for Skincare and Nutraceutical Lines

Carrot CO2 Extract supplied in a 1 kg pack is built for manufacturers who need consistent batch quality and a steady supply of raw material for ongoing production runs. This concentrated substance is obtained through supercritical carbon dioxide extraction from carrot root, which preserves carotenoids, tocopherols and fatty acids in their natural form without thermal degradation. This extraction method is valued precisely because it yields a highly concentrated, solvent-free active material. The extract belongs to the product line found in the CO2 Extracts section, which brings together similar concentrates for cosmetic and food manufacturing needs.

The primary field of application for carrot CO2 lies in skin and hair care manufacturing: serums, face and body creams, balms, tanning oils and after-sun products, since carrot carotenoids are widely associated with supporting an even skin tone and providing antioxidant protection. A second major direction is the production of dietary supplements and functional food products, where carrot concentrate serves as a natural carotenoid source in capsules, oil blends and fortified foods. A third area is the fragrance and cosmetic industry, where carrot CO2 contributes a warm, earthy note to compositions and is used as a natural ingredient in perfume blends. There is also steady demand from manufacturers of sun-care and post-sun products, as well as developers of formulations targeting mature or tired-looking skin.

The recommended dosage for this extract in finished formulations ranges from 0.5 to 3 percent of the total product mass, depending on the desired intensity and base type. It should be added during the cooling phase of the emulsion, at temperatures not exceeding 40-45 degrees Celsius, to avoid degrading heat-sensitive carotenoids. The extract dissolves well in the oil phase and is compatible with most vegetable oils, waxes and emollients, which simplifies its integration into existing production recipes. When building multi-component formulations, carrot CO2 is often paired with other extracts from the same line: for instance, with Chestnut CO2 Extract for products focused on skin tone and microcirculation, with Burdock CO2 extract in formulas for oily and problem-prone scalp, and with Artichoke CO2 Extract in comprehensive anti-aging lines.

Thanks to its 1 kg packaging, this extract is well suited for medium-scale and industrial conveyor production, ensuring a steady raw material supply for extended manufacturing cycles without frequent reordering. The product should be stored in a tightly sealed container, in a cool dark place protected from direct sunlight and temperature fluctuations, which helps preserve carotenoid activity throughout the stated shelf life. Once opened, it is advisable to minimize air exposure and use clean tools each time the product is measured out.
