CO2-extracts

CO2 extracts exhibit some of the characteristics of essential oils. Like essential oils, they contain many beneficial therapeutic properties. They are extracted with CO2 gas (carbon dioxide) under pressure at ambient temperature. Under normal atmospheric conditions, CO2 is a gas, but when highly compressed it becomes supercritical - neither a gas nor a liquid.

Supercritical CO2 is an excellent organic solvent used to extract essential oils from plants. The procedure is fast and careful, and it is completely closed to avoid the presence of oxygen, thus preserving the composition of the chemical components. Highly volatile top notes are not lost, and the base notes of less volatile and sensitive oxygen-rich sesquiterpenes are also fully preserved. Hydrolysis of monoterpene esters or the loss of monoterpene alcohols in the heart notes is also largely avoided during extraction. Another impressive advantage of CO2 extraction is that once the oil is extracted from the plant material, the supercritical CO2 is returned to its gaseous state at normal air pressure, disappearing quickly and completely and without generating toxic waste! A very sustainable and environmentally friendly way of extraction. There are already statements in the 'aromatherapy world' that CO2 extraction is the future. The fact that many of the CO2 extracts have a significantly more pleasant smell than the distilled variety is an added bonus.

Depending on the applied pressure and temperature, 'select' or 'total' extract is created. Select extracts are obtained at lower pressures and are more similar to essential oils as they are fully mobile liquids with mostly volatile components making up the bulk of the extract. Total extracts are obtained by working at higher pressures and contain more lipophilic components of the plant with a higher molecular weight, they can be thicker or waxier and resemble the whole plant more than just the essential oil fraction of the plant. Some CO2 total extracts are in fact carrier oils, for example Pomegranate CO2 and Rosehip seed or Rosehip pulp CO2. But CO2 extracts are also obtained from well-known macerates, such as Calendula or St. John's Wort. Then in aromatherapy we also know the very vulnerable polyunsaturated fatty acid oils (MOV), which are very vulnerable and have a limited shelf life. How good is it that there is also Evening Primrose CO2 and Wheat Bran CO2.

Major benefits of CO2 extracts:
Due to the stability and versatility of CO2 extracts and because they contain a number of very beneficial properties (components) that are not found in essential oils, they are widely used by manufacturers in the food industry, body care, supplement industry and aromatherapy. The appeal of supercritical CO2 extraction is evident from the already existing industrial applications of natural hop extraction, decaffeination of tea and coffee, degreasing of cocoa powder and extraction of herbs and spices, to name a few. With greater availability, these wonderful extracts are increasingly finding their way into aromatherapists and natural perfumery.

Major benefits of CO2 extracts in brief:

Obtained at lower temperatures (up to 40˚C/104˚F) than steam distillation
Carbon dioxide, which acts as a solvent, is non-toxic, odorless and can be easily removed from the extracted oil and reused at the end of the process
Have more stability and a long shelf life
Contain no carbohydrates, inorganic salts, proteins/allergens or germs
Meet strict requirements for heavy metals
The fragrance is generally similar to that of the fresh plant
The production process is sustainable and environmentally friendly
