Product description

Organic calendula oil based on organic sunflower oil is a plant-based calendula infused oil for cosmetic formulations. The light orange oil has the characteristic scent of calendula and is suitable for applications in which a lighter oil base is preferred.

To produce it, a standardised organic calendula extract is combined with organic sunflower oil. Compared with a classic macerate, this process ensures a consistent raw material quality and easy integration into a range of formulations.

The organic sunflower oil base is characterised by a high proportion of linoleic acid and contributes to the light sensory profile of the product. Calendula oil can be used like a classic skincare oil in oil blends, emulsions and other cosmetic formulations. The natural colour of the oil should be taken into account during product development.

The product is suitable for skincare creams, facial oils, after-sun products, cleansing oils and other cosmetic applications. Classically macerated: our calendula macerate in organic olive oil.

Manufacturing process

Maceration

Maceration

Additional processes

Infused oil from fresh or dried plant parts in a carrier oil – fat-soluble plant compounds pass gently into the oil.

A macerate, also known as an infused oil, is produced by maceration: fresh or dried plant parts (botanical raw materials) are steeped in a carrier oil such as olive, sesame or sunflower oil. Extraction usually takes place over several weeks at temperatures of 25 to 40 °C.

Depending on the raw material, dried or fresh plant parts are used. Calendula and arnica flowers, for example, are processed dried, while St John’s wort can be macerated as a fresh herb.

Mainly lipophilic, i.e. fat-soluble, constituents pass into the oil – such as essential oils, fat-soluble vitamins, phytosterols, carotenoids and other secondary plant compounds.

Our range includes:

  • Calendula macerate
  • Arnica macerate
  • St John’s wort macerate
  • Carrot macerate
  • Amla and ashwagandha root macerates
  • Aloe vera oil macerate

The macerates are gently filtered to ensure good product quality and suitable processing properties. Details of the exact composition, the carrier oil used and the INCI can be found on the respective product page.
