Organic Nettle Extract

Organic Nettle Extract is a natural ingredient derived from the leaves, stems, or roots of the nettle plant, typically Urtica dioica. It is produced using organically grown nettles and specific extraction processes, such as maceration, distillation, and separation/purification.

Unlike standardized botanical extracts, this product preserves the naturally occurring phytochemical profile of nettle, without forcing fixed active compound specifications that are incompatible with organic agriculture.

This ingredient is designed for manufacturers seeking organic compliance, formulation flexibility, and reliable large-scale supply, rather than artificially standardized values.

Understanding Organic Nettle Extract

Natural Actives Without Forced Standardization

In organic botanical extracts, natural variation is inherent and unavoidable.

• Active compounds such as flavonoids and phenolic constituents are naturally present in nettle leaves
• Their levels may vary depending on season, soil conditions, climate, and harvest period
• Organic standards do not allow agricultural or processing interventions to artificially stabilize these values

For this reason, Organic Nettle Extract is supplied as a non-standardized extract.
Instead of pre-defining fixed specifications, analytical testing can be conducted per batch based on customer requirements, ensuring transparency and regulatory alignment.

Organic Nettle Extract Powder is suitable for a wide range of formulations:

• Dietary supplements: capsules, tablets, powder blends
• Functional foods & beverages: herbal mixes, wellness drinks
• Herbal formulations: traditional or modern botanical combinations
• Natural cosmetics: scalp care, botanical skin formulations

Its non-standardized nature allows formulators to adapt usage according to product positioning and regulatory requirements.

• Botanical name: Urtica dioica
• Plant part used: Leaf
• Family: Urticaceae

Nettle has been used for centuries in European herbal traditions as a nutrient-rich botanical, often consumed as herbal infusions or incorporated into seasonal diets.
Historically, nettle leaves were valued as a spring botanical, traditionally associated with vitality, mineral intake, and daily wellness practices rather than isolated active compounds.

This long-standing botanical use provides a solid cultural foundation for its modern application as a functional plant ingredient.

Organic nettle leaves naturally contain a range of phytochemical categories, including:

• Flavonoids
• Phenolic compounds
• Chlorophyll
• Naturally occurring minerals

The presence and relative proportion of these components may vary from batch to batch, which reflects the authentic nature of organic botanical raw materials.

• Sourced from certified organic farms
• No synthetic pesticides, herbicides, or chemical fertilizers
• Controlled harvesting and drying to protect botanical integrity
• Full raw material traceability from field to finished extract

Our organic supply chain management ensures consistency at the process level, even when natural compositional variation exists.
