Thyme Extract

In the botanical raw materials sector, Greenext provides manufacturers of food, cosmetics, and health products with premium, certified thyme extract. Known for its antimicrobial properties and high antioxidant capacity, thyme extract serves as both a natural preservative and a functional active ingredient with a wide range of applications.

Scientifically Supported Benefits

  • Natural Antimicrobial Action: The carvacrol and thymol compounds in thyme extract provide strong protection against bacteria and fungi. This helps extend the shelf life of food and cosmetic products naturally.

  • High Antioxidant Capacity: Fights free radicals, reducing oxidative stress in both products and skin. In cosmetic formulations, it supports anti-aging effects and overall skin health.

  • Anti-inflammatory & Soothing: Helps calm irritation and redness in skincare formulations, making it suitable even for sensitive skin.

Applications for Manufacturers

  • Food Industry: Can be used as a natural preservative and flavor enhancer in sauces, olive oils, snacks, and beverages.

  • Cosmetic Products: Effective antibacterial active for face cleansers, toners, and anti-acne formulations.

  • Home & Cleaning Products: Valued for its natural disinfectant properties in eco-friendly cleaning solutions.

Formulation & Production Tips

  • Recommended Concentration: Typically used at 0.5% – 2%, depending on the final product type.

  • Stability & Carrier Selection: Compatible with alcohol-based solutions, glycerin, or water-based systems. For optimal stability, low-temperature processing is recommended.

  • Certified Source: Greenext’s COSMOS-certified thyme extract provides a trustworthy solution for brands committed to “clean label” formulations.

The Greenext Advantage

With Greenext’s SUCCESS CHAIN model, thyme extract is produced through traceable, sustainable processes, from seed to bottling. This enables manufacturers to meet consumer expectations for natural, ethical, and eco-friendly products, giving their brand a strong competitive edge.
