Cannabis Sativa Seed Oil
Description
Cannabis Sativa Seed Oil (CAS 89958-21-4), commonly known as hemp seed oil, is cold-pressed from the seeds of the Cannabis sativa plant. It is used across personal care, food, and pharmaceutical applications as an emollient and nutritional oil.
In cosmetic formulations, it acts as a skin-conditioning emollient in facial oils, body lotions, lip balms, and hair care products. It is valued for its ability to support moisture retention without leaving a heavy residue on the skin.
Food manufacturers incorporate it as a culinary oil and nutritional supplement ingredient. It is particularly popular in health food products where omega fatty acid content is a primary label-relevant selling point for consumers.
In nutraceutical and dietary supplement production, it is used in softgel fills, functional beverages, and protein-enriched blends. Pharmaceutical formulators also evaluate it as a carrier oil in various topical preparations.
It serves as a stabilizing lipid base in semi-solid dosage forms and specialized medical applications. The oil is supplied as a clear to pale green liquid, typically in bulk drums, IBCs, and smaller packaged volumes.
Food-grade and cosmetic-grade specifications are the most commercially available options. Some suppliers offer cold-pressed, unrefined variants alongside refined grades to meet specific formulation requirements and stability needs.
Organic-certified material is available for buyers targeting clean-label or natural product markets. This versatile ingredient continues to see growth across the global B2B chemical and raw material supply chain.
