Rosehip Seeds come from high-quality rosehip fruits grown in clean, natural environments. These seeds are carefully dried, cleaned, and sorted to deliver consistent size, purity, and natural nutrient content. Widely used in cold-pressed oil production, herbal blends, skincare formulations, and functional foods, our export-grade rosehip seeds offer stable quality and strong supply reliability for international manufacturers.
We provide clean, uniform, and nutrient-rich seeds ideal for oil extraction and natural product manufacturing.
Used in oil extraction, skincare products, herbal teas, supplements, and wellness formulations due to nutrient content.
Extracted for premium cosmetic oils.
Ideal for natural wellness blends.

Our Rosehip Seeds are derived exclusively from the Rosa canina species, harvested primarily from the high-altitude Mediterranean and Aegean regions. In B2B trade, the seeds are separated from the fruit’s pericarp (shell) and undergo a rigorous mechanical cleaning process. This ensures that the seeds are free from the irritating fine hairs (trichomes) found inside the rosehip, providing a clean, high-purity raw material for both the cosmetic and nutraceutical industries.
Rosehip seeds are prized for their high concentration of Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids (PUFAs). A technical analysis of our seeds typically reveals a Linoleic Acid (Omega-6) content of 40–55% and an Alpha-Linolenic Acid (Omega-3) content of 20–30%. This specific balance, along with the presence of Oleic acid, makes our seeds a premium source for “dry” oils that are rapidly absorbed by the skin, widely used in anti-aging and regenerative skincare formulations.
Yes. DITCO Rosehip Seeds are specifically processed to maintain their chemical integrity for cold-press extraction (below 40°C). We ensure a moisture content of maximum 10–12%, which is the industry standard to prevent microbial activity while protecting the delicate vitamins—particularly Vitamin A (Retinol) and Vitamin E (Tocopherols)—and carotenoids like lycopene. This high-yield raw material ensures the resulting oil maintains its characteristic reddish-orange hue and therapeutic potency.
Rosehip processing is technically challenging because the seeds are naturally surrounded by fine, irritating hairs. DITCO utilizes a multi-stage separation and aspiration system to ensure these hairs and any remaining fruit peel are removed. Our export-grade seeds reach a purity level of 98% to 99.5%, which is critical for industrial grinders and oil pressers who require a clean material that won’t clog machinery or introduce impurities into the final extract.
Strict compliance with EU Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 and FDA MRL (Maximum Residue Limit) standards is a cornerstone of our export protocol. Since rosehips are often wild-harvested or grown in natural environments, we conduct regular third-party laboratory screenings to ensure the seeds are free from heavy metals, unauthorized pesticides, and microbiological contaminants like Salmonella and E. coli. We provide a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) with every shipment.
To preserve the antioxidant properties and prevent the oxidation of the sensitive fatty acids, we pack our bulk Rosehip Seeds in 25 kg or 50 kg multi-wall kraft paper bags with food-grade polyethylene (PE) liners. For a shelf life of up to 24 months, it is technically recommended to store the product in a cool ($<18$°C), dry, and dark environment. Maintaining a low humidity level is essential to prevent the seeds from absorbing moisture, which can lead to rancidity in the oil fraction.
