Perguntas das equipes de compras
Respostas às perguntas mais frequentes feitas por compradores durante RFQ e avaliação de embarque-teste.
- What end-uses drive alkanet demand?
- Three main streams: (1) Natural-color cosmetic — lipsticks, lip balms, soap-making (deep crimson to maroon dye); (2) Ayurvedic / Unani medicine — wound-healing topical preparations; (3) Culinary garnish — Kashmiri rogan-josh red color (alkanet root steeped in oil). Buyers in cosmetic-formulator and natural-dye houses are the high-tier segment.
- Is alkanet sustainable / ethical?
- Alkanet (Alkanna tinctoria) grows wild across the Mediterranean basin, Iran, Pakistan, and Turkey. Most commercial supply is wild-harvest; over-harvest pressure exists in Turkish and Iranian populations. We source from cooperative wild-harvest programmes practicing seasonal rotation and provide sustainability declaration on shipments. FairWild certification is not yet available for alkanet but ECOCERT-track is.
- How is alkanet color extracted by formulators?
- The active dye (alkannin / shikonin) is fat-soluble. Cosmetic formulators infuse alkanet roots into a carrier oil (jojoba, sweet almond, coconut) for 2–6 weeks at 30–40 °C, then filter. Ayurvedic preparations infuse in mustard or sesame oil. Specify root format: whole roots for slow infusion, cut for medium-speed, powder for fastest extraction (but harder to filter).
- What is the difference between alkanet and ratanjot in Indian retail?
- Indian retail "ratanjot" is sometimes Alkanna tinctoria (Mediterranean alkanet) and sometimes Onosma echioides (Indian alkanet). Different active compounds; different colour intensity. We supply Alkanna tinctoria specifically and label the Latin binomial on every shipment. Buyers wanting Onosma echioides need to specify clearly.
- How do I evaluate alkanet quality on receipt?
- Sensory: deep crimson to maroon when freshly cut; greying or yellowing indicates aged or sun-bleached stock. Test: infuse 1 g into 50 mL almond oil at 35 °C for 24 hours — colour should reach deep ruby-red. Lab: HPLC for shikonin / alkannin content (typically 1–3% in wild-harvest). We provide a colour-density panel and HPLC report on programme volumes.
