Plant Extracts

Plant extracts are botanical ingredients derived from plant materials such as leaves, flowers, fruits and roots, capturing naturally occurring compounds for use in cosmetic formulations.

At NATIVE EXTRACTS, we go beyond isolated actives to explore the broader phyto-compound profile of plants. Through our innovative Cellular Extraction™ technology, we capture naturally occurring water-soluble compounds from Australian native and traditional botanicals, creating True to Nature™ ingredients for skincare, haircare and cosmetic formulations.

Plant extracts are used in skincare, haircare and cosmetic formulations to incorporate naturall occurring botanical compounds into finished products.

Depending on their properties and compatibility, botanical extracts can be incorporated into serums, moisturisers, cleansers, masks, body care and haircare products, supporting a wide range of product objectives.

NATIVE EXTRACTS manufactures and supplies an extensive range of Australian native and traditional botanical extracts, offering formulators access to diverse plant species and naturally occurring phyto-compounds.

Our wider ingredient portfolio includes upcycled botanical ingredients, and carrier oils supporting innovation across skincare, haircare and cosmetic formulations.

Australian native plant extracts are derived from plant species indigenous to Australia, including Kakadu Plum, Finger Lime and Davidson Plum.

Traditional botanical extracts are sourced from globally recognised plant species such as Green Tea, Rosemary and Aloe Vera.

NATIVE EXTRACTS offers both Australian native and traditional botanical Ingredients, allowing Brands and Formulators and Contact Manufacturers to explore a diverse range of plant profiles for product development.

Cellular Extraction™ is an advanced extraction methodology pioneered by NATIVE EXTRACTS, designed to capture naturally occurring water-soluble phyto-compounds from plant materials.

Rather than focusing solely on isolated compounds, the technology explores a broader profile of water-soluble compounds within plants, creating True to Nature™ botanical ingredients for modern formulation development.

Plant extracts can be water-soluble or oil-soluble, depending on the botanical material and extraction methodology used.
