Liquids

We produce high-quality liquids in accordance with strict GMP guidelines.
These liquid extracts provide efficient and versatile ways to use plant-based active ingredients in various products.

A fluid extract is a liquid plant extract where the active ingredients are extracted using a solvent like alcohol, purified water or alcohol-water mixtures. This extraction process allows us to obtain high concentrations of the plant’s bioactive components, ensuring efficient and effective use.

Use:
Fluid extracts are especially valuable in the pharmaceutical and cosmetics industries.  They enable precise dosing, making them suitable for a range of therapeutic applications, including drops, syrups and various topical formulations.

A glycolic extract is a plant-based, alcohol-free extract dissolved in propylene glycol or glycerine. It is produced either by direct extraction from plants or by concentrating an extract obtained using a suitable solvent. The stable properties of glycols help extend the shelf life of products by keeping the active ingredients effective for longer.

Use:
Glycolic extracts are especially suitable for alcohol-free drops and juices, making them ideal for children and sensitive patients. They also provide a gentle and effective alternative for skincare. They are more tolerable on sensitive skin, moisturise and are odourless.

A soft extract, or spissum extract, is a highly concentrated herbal extract with a paste-like or viscous consistency. These extracts are made by using solvents like ethanol, purified water or ethanol-water mixtures to extract active plant ingredients, which are then gently concentrated into a thick, viscous mass.
To achieve the desired consistency and stability, substances such as glucose syrup are added to the spissum extracts according to your unique formulation.

Use:
Thanks to their high concentration of active ingredients and stable formulation, spissum extracts allow for precise dosing and easy application. They are ideal for making syrups or lozenges.

Our plant-based lipophilic raw materials are dissolved in carrier oils either directly or after ethanol extraction and concentration. We use either neutral or natural oils for this purpose. The oil is then carefully filtered to produce a highly concentrated, pharmaceutical-grade extract.

Use:
Oil extracts are perfect for producing ointments, emulsions, and other topical formulations and can also be directly encapsulated in gelatine capsules. These provide a stable formulation that ensures precise dosing and high bioavailability of the active ingredients.

Dry extracts

We produce a variety of dry extracts, also known as siccum extracts. We select high-quality plant-based raw materials and extract them using solvents like alcohol, water or alcohol-water mixtures, with or without heat. After extraction, the solvent is carefully removed, often under vacuum and at low temperatures, to preserve the sensitive active ingredients. The remaining concentrate is then further dried to obtain a fine, dry and highly concentrated powder. To enhance handling and stability, excipients like maltodextrin or highly dispersed silicon dioxide are added to improve the flow properties and dosing accuracy of the final product.

Use:
Siccum or dry extracts are versatile and used in a variety of pharmaceutical preparations. They are ideal for tablets, capsules, granules and the production of liquid preparations.

Mixed and special extracts

We offer mixed extracts made from a combination of different herbal raw materials to achieve synergistic effects and maximise their effectiveness.
Scientific studies have shown that isolated individual substances from medicinal plants often have a lower pharmacological effect compared to a complete phyto-complex.
Mixed extracts are especially suitable for the cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries, where complex formulations are needed to offer a range of health benefits.

Special extracts:
Our special extracts are made to meet individual customer requirements and specific formulations.
We produce customised extracts for you using appropriate extraction agents for both lipophilic and hydrophilic active ingredients. Using single-phase or multi-phase extraction techniques, we ensure optimal extraction of active ingredients according to your specific instructions, formulation and regulatory requirements. Our extraction process is precisely tailored to your approval or registration requirements.

Your benefit:
We offer flexible solutions and collaborative partnerships to meet the unique needs of our customers. With our expertise and innovation, we can produce extracts that meet both market and pharmacopoeia requirements.
