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 |
