About cryogenic or stabilized roses

Preserving a rose or another flower can be done through various industrial techniques or even "home made" procedures, meaning you can do this at home.

The quality of the process, respectively the lifetime after the process depends on the technique used initially

First of all, the term cryogenate is technically wrong. The correct variant of expression is "stabilized", but this is how the novel is used. For him, everything that appears for the first time again uses the respective name (diapers are diapers with us, plasterboard is plasterboard, photocopy is photocopy, etc.). We, like others, use the term cryogenic because of this, because that's what customers are looking for. Cryogenesis is done on newer people, but that's another story.

The practically stabilized rose is 50% natural. The first step in the process of preserving the rose is to dehydrate it in a special alcohol (solvent, ethanol, etc.). After this process, the rose becomes white, approximately colorless, practically like a white vellum leaf.

In the second step of preservation with glycerin or glycol with high hydrophilic properties, the rose is "painted" again in the desired color. So naturally only its shape and texture remain.

The stem is preserved separately from the simple fact because it has a different color and / or requires other hydration and preservation solutions than the flower. For example, if you see a stabilized rose as in the image below, it was definitely a home made technique.

Because he has to look like this:

Newer are also producers who try to make it more identical, practically only preserve the petals and rebuild the rose back petal by petal using silicone adhesive, but definitely lose its original beauty

The technological producer of the preserved rose usually transmits that the product lasts three years. The technique being relatively new, since 2015, we do not yet have a firm confirmation of the final customer. We all say it lasts 25 years or a lifetime ... that's still to be seen. There is still documentation on the internet about cryogenizing the rose by freezing at -55 degrees. They are just fairy tales, or people who speak ignorantly

One of the rudimentary (home made) options that anyone can do at home is to wrap the flower in silica gel for more than 2 weeks.

At AmbalajeFloriOnline you can find stabilized roses of the best quality presented as being cryogenic as we explained above.
