Company Details

Flavex Naturextrakte GmbH, founded in 1986, is a pioneer in supercritical fluid extraction (SFE). Flavex is extracting herbal active substances, sensitive flavours and fragrances in a gentle natural and clean process, safe for the environment. The private and independent German company is located in the heart of Europe near the border of France and the Be-Ne-Lux countries.

The company is focused on specialty extracts from a wide range of botanical raw materials. The products are sold worldwide as ingredients to the food and flavour, the nutraceuticals, cosmetics, perfumery and aromatherapy industries.

 

Technology

The SFE-technology is designed and constantly optimised on the base of many years operation know-how. Equipped with state of the art measurement and control systems the extraction plants are best suitable for resolving critical separation problems.

 

Quality

Competence, continuous R&D efforts of our expert teams as well as detailed documentation of all relevant process steps - from organic contract cultivation right up to the finished end product - are the base of our stringent product quality. The traceable ISO-certified QS-system including modern analytical methods guarantees for the authenticity of Flavex CO2 extracts.

All Flavex products are developed, produced and certified at the company’s site in Germany.

 

Products

The lipophilic CO2-extracts are highly concentrated and free of solvent residues, inorganic salts and heavy metals. CO2-extracts are practically sterile and need no preservation since they don’t provide any base for germ growth due to the absence of water, proteins and polysaccharides.

Unique CO2-extracts of Camomile and Calendula and specialty oils, i.e. of Sea Buckthorn seed and pulp are widely used as anti-inflammatory and bio-active components in creams, sun creams, skin oils, shampoos and body milk products.

 

Extracts with anti-oxidative properties from Rosemary and Sage are both improving the product shelf life and they are active as anti-aging ingredients protecting the skin against UV-irradiation and environmental stress or retarding sebum oxidation in hair care products.

Extracts with anti-microbial properties from Hop, St. John’s Wort and Usnea lichen are caring about sensitive dry and itching skin with a tendency towards neurodermitic and allergenic reactions or they are used in deodorising products.

Myrrh, Sage and other selective extracts improve the quality of toothpastes, mouth wash and bath products or massage fluids. CO2-extracts of Ginger, Cinnamon, Red Berries and Juniper are new ingredients in fine fragrances where they unfold exciting olfactive effects.

CO2-extracts make your products simply better. Be on the cutting edge with CO2-extracts!
We are looking forward to a successful cooperation
