Full Description:

Derived from organic Trachyspermum ammi fruits, this extract is produced using advanced Supercritical CO₂ technology. Unlike traditional steam distillation, this method captures the complete volatile profile without thermal degradation, solvent residues, or inorganic salts.

The extract is characterised by a potent concentration of Thymol (40–50%), delivering a light yellow, clear oil with the distinct aroma of caraway and thyme.

Applications:

  • Clean-Label Preservation: Demonstrates strong efficacy against food-borne pathogens, including Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella, and E. coli, making it a powerful natural alternative to synthetic preservatives.
  • Cosmetics & Personal Care: A high-performance active for treating acne and fungal conditions due to its efficacy against Staphylococcus aureus and dermatophytes.
  • Therapeutic: traditionally utilised for its carminative and analgesic properties, particularly in formulations addressing inflammation and neuropathic pain.
