About this extract

Comfrey

What Is Comfrey Root Butylene Glycol Extract?

Comfrey Root Butylene Glycol Extract is a topical liquid extract of Symphytum officinale root carried in butylene glycol, a water-compatible glycol humectant carrier. Bio-Botanica supplies it to personal-care formulators as a full-spectrum, water-phase comfrey root ingredient, non-standardized. Comfrey root is a traditional source of naturally occurring constituents such as allantoin and mucilage familiar to cosmetic developers.

Market Demand

The global botanical extracts market reached USD 6.91 billion in 2025 and is projected by Fortune Business Insights to climb to USD 16.34 billion by 2034, a 10.15% CAGR. Water-phase glycol extracts sit at the center of this shift toward hydrating, clean-label leave-on products, giving comfrey root a clear place in modern personal-care ranges.

Formulation Applications

The butylene glycol carrier makes this root extract easy to disperse in the water phase of serums, toners, essences, hydrating mists, sheet-mask fluids and moisturizers. It also fits scalp and hair leave-on systems. Brands can position it around skin, scalp and hair care and traditional botanical heritage without making any therapeutic promise.

Why Formulators Choose Bio-Botanica

Since 1972 Bio-Botanica has been a family-owned botanical manufacturer, and this comfrey root extract is produced at our Hauppauge, New York cGMP facility using the proprietary Bio-Chelated cold-extraction method for a Holistically Balanced profile. Every lot moves through identity, microbial and heavy-metal testing on instrumentation such as UPLC-MS/MS and ICP/MS, with Kosher, Halal and Organic options available.
