Plant extracts

What are liquid plant extracts?

Liquid plant extracts are products obtained in the process of percolation of plant material with a single solvent (e.g. glycerine) or a mixture (e.g. glycerine + water). After that, they are condensed in an appropriate way.

Extracts in this form are liquids of various claritiy, colours and the smells which are characteristic for the material used to produce them. They may have smoothing, toning, warming, cooling, moisturising, anti-cellulite, whitening, conditioning, disinfecting and many other properties. They may also supplement medical treatment.

Our basic assortment are standardised liquid extracts made from any material, usually plant material or its mixture, based on:

• glycol
• glycol – water
• glycerine
• glycerine – water
• glycerine – water – ethanol
• oil
• ethanol
• ethanol – water
• water
• other (as specified)

The density levels most common for our products are:

• D/E 1:10
• D/E 1:5
• D/E 1:2
• D/E 1:1
• D/E 2:1

Dense extracts

Dense extracts are plastic or semi-plastic substances of a relatively low water content. Most often, they can be an intermediary product used for further processing in granule or tablet production, they may also be a good binding agent. They are semi-solid products obtained through partial evaporation of the solvent used in the percolation process, which is usually ethanol mixed with water, or water. The extracted liquid is condensed to obtain a substance of a syrup-like consistency, containing 60 – 85% of dry mass.

When to choose dense extracts:

• if more efficiency is needed at a smaller amount,
