Hemp seed Fixed Oil

Hemp seed supercritical CO₂ extract (Cannabis sativa) delivers a nutrient-dense fixed oil with an optimal omega fatty acid balance prized in cosmetic and nutraceutical formulations. This light green oil presents a characteristic nutty aroma and flavor.

Functional Properties

The fatty acid profile features linoleic acid (54.8%) and α-linolenic acid (18.5%) in an approximately 3:1 omega-6 to omega-3 ratio—considered ideal for human nutritional requirements. Oleic acid (13.7%) and palmitic acid (7.6%) complete the major fatty acids. Gamma-tocopherol content (855 ppm) provides natural antioxidant protection. Total cannabinoid content is controlled at 362 ppm (specification <3000 ppm), ensuring regulatory compliance while preserving seed lipid functionality.

Quality

Supercritical extraction preserves heat-sensitive polyunsaturated fatty acids. Cannabinoid content verified within regulatory limits. Low peroxide value indicates fresh processing. Complies with food-grade specifications for heavy metals and pesticides.

Applications

• Cosmetics: Moisturizers, anti-aging serums, barrier-support and soothing formulations, acne-prone skin formulations
• Hair Care: Conditioning and strengthening treatments for dry, damaged hair
• Nutraceuticals: Cardiovascular health, inflammatory conditions, hormonal balance formulations

Specification highlights
