What Is Comfrey Leaf Propylene Glycol Extract?
This is a topical liquid extract of Symphytum officinale leaf carried in propylene glycol, a water-compatible humectant and solubilizing carrier. Bio-Botanica offers it to personal-care formulators as a full-spectrum comfrey leaf ingredient, non-standardized. Comfrey leaf provides naturally occurring constituents such as allantoin and mucilage that developers know from traditional topical botanical use.
Market Demand
Fortune Business Insights reports the botanical extracts category at USD 6.91 billion in 2025, on a path to USD 16.34 billion by 2034 at a compound annual rate of 10.15%. Propylene-glycol-based extracts remain a workhorse of that market for water-phase leave-on and rinse-off formulas, keeping comfrey leaf relevant across a broad cosmetic portfolio.
Formulation Applications
The propylene glycol carrier disperses readily in the water phase, suiting serums, toners, essences, facial mists, moisturizers, gel formulas and rinse-off cleansers, plus scalp and hair leave-ins. It can also help carry other water-soluble ingredients in a formula. Brands can position this comfrey leaf extract around skin, scalp and hair care and botanical tradition, without any health claim.
Why Formulators Choose Bio-Botanica
A family-owned manufacturer since 1972, Bio-Botanica prepares this comfrey leaf extract at its FDA-inspected cGMP site in Hauppauge, New York using the Bio-Chelated low-heat process to maintain a Holistically Balanced profile. Identity, microbial and heavy-metal testing takes place in our onsite lab on instrumentation including HPLC and ICP/MS, with Kosher, Halal and Organic certification available.
