Product Description
Sourcing and specification details
The CO2 complex is produced in Ukraine from lemon peel, sea buckthorn fruits and calendula flowers via supercritical extraction. The resulting oily mass contains flavonoids, carotenoids, terpenes, phytosterols and fatty acids. International buyers source the ingredient for consistent botanical profiles in finished goods. CO2 Extracts Wholesale offers direct access to this raw material in 100 g transport packaging. The lipophilic character ensures compatibility with a wide range of oil-based and emulsified systems used by cosmetic laboratories.
Technical characteristics for formulators
The extract integrates into oil phases and emulsions at low percentages. Its lipophilic nature supports even distribution in creams, serums and balms without altering viscosity significantly. Laboratories value the preserved volatile fraction for aromatic notes in final products. Processing remains straightforward because the material requires only moderate temperatures during incorporation.
Role in dietary supplements and food manufacturing
Manufacturers of dietary supplements and functional foods purchase the complex as a botanical raw material. It is incorporated into beverage blends, confectionery fillings and nutritional bars to deliver natural flavonoids and carotenoids. Complex CO2 for strengthening and growing nails 1 kg provides an economical option when scaling up production volumes.
Example formulation for a supplement blend
Botanical drink premix: 1.5 % complex, 20 % glycerin, 5 % citrus extract, 73.5 % water. Blend at 35 °C and pasteurize gently before bottling. This approach keeps the sensory profile mild and suitable for daily use.
Processing guidelines
Add at temperatures below 40 °C. Soluble in oils and partially in ethanol. Avoid prolonged heating above 45 °C to maintain component integrity. Extracts Wholesale also supplies complementary raw materials for complete formulation development.
Storage recommendations
Keep in a clean dry place until 10.2028. Routine visual and olfactory checks confirm that each batch remains within specification.
