Guava extract

Guava extract (CAS 91770-12-6), also sourced and referenced under Psidium guajava extract, is a botanical-derived ingredient used across food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical manufacturing.

It delivers characteristic tropical flavor notes alongside antioxidant activity, making it commercially relevant for both sensory and functional formulation goals in various industrial sectors.

In food and beverage production, it contributes authentic guava flavor to fruit drinks, nectars, confectionery, and dairy products where natural tropical taste profiles are required for the consumer.

Cosmetic formulators incorporate it into skincare and haircare products for its antioxidant properties, targeting formulations positioned around natural botanical actives and clean label beauty standards.

In nutraceutical and dietary supplement manufacturing, it functions as a plant-based antioxidant ingredient in capsules, powders, and functional food formats for health-conscious market segments.

Flavor houses also use concentrated forms to build tropical flavor systems for use in finished product blending, ensuring consistency and potency across large-scale manufacturing batches.

Guava extract is supplied as a liquid extract, spray-dried powder, or concentrated paste depending on application requirements and the specific needs of the production facility.

Food-grade and cosmetic-grade specifications are the most commonly available, with standardized versions offered against key marker compounds to ensure high quality and regulatory compliance.
