Demand for natural ingredients is growing as consumers become better informed and look for pure, effective products. When seeking organic oils in the wholesale market, carrier oils are an indispensable raw material.
In our quest to supply you with the best ingredients for your products, the team at Nautica Organics has put together this guide to the different types of carrier oils we stock to help you make informed decisions for your product lines.
What Are Carrier Oils?
In brief, carrier oils are lipid-rich vegetable oils. They are extracts from the fatty parts of plants, such as seeds, nuts and kernels. Their stable composition makes them perfect to use as a base or diluent for other, more concentrated ingredients like essential oils.
They are also useful in standalone creams, lotions, moisturisers and balms. Factors to consider when selecting the ideal carrier oil for your products include stability, texture and absorption rate.
Our Range of Carrier Oils
We offer a comprehensive carrier oil range to meet your manufacturing needs, including:
- Cold-Pressed Oils: Produced with the most “gentle” extraction method, these oils retain their natural colour, nutrients and aroma well. They are the go-to choice for clean beauty formulations, offering maximum therapeutic value.
- Refined Oils: These oils undergo processes such as filtration, deodorisation, and decolourisation. The end result is a more neutral oil with very little scent and a longer shelf life than their cold-pressed counterparts. Their neutral nature serves as the perfect base for other active ingredients and fragrances. Plus, they offer excellent cost-effectiveness and stability.
- Infused Oils: Plants such as herbs or flowers are steeped in these carrier oils and thereby take on the additional benefits of these plant compounds. Infused oils provide a convenient way to add these benefits to your products without complex extraction processes.
- Butters: These semi-solid oils are sourced from nuts or seeds, such as shea, cocoa, or mango. They are great for adding richness and thickness to your creams, balms, and lotions, resulting in a more luxurious product.
