UniCare positions infrastructure as the bedrock of quality control. We deploy the largest and most advanced extraction machinery across China, operated through fully digitalized, smart automated controls.
Our production hub houses two modern GMP-validated workshops running six multifunctional extraction lines. This includes the only high-capacity Ginkgo Biloba Extract acetone process line in China designed in complete compliance with European GMP directives. Complementing this, our facilities run specialized enzymatic fermentation pipelines and standardized traditional Chinese medicine pieces processing. The cumulative raw material processing output exceeds 30,000 metric tons annually, enabling us to handle massive B2B volumes without compromising quality consistency.
Why global brands rely on China's integrated raw material procurement, technological ecosystems, and industrial capabilities.
China is home to diverse plant species and boasts expansive, highly localized botanical cultivation centers. This minimizes raw material transport times, retaining original bio-activity and reducing carbon footprints.
From seed cultivation and planting base management to extraction, refinement, and packaging, China's supply chains are vertically integrated. This eliminates unnecessary intermediate costs, offering direct manufacturer pricing.
Chinese extraction facilities incorporate modern automation, advanced chromatographs, and green solvents. This results in standard-compliant, solvent-free plant extracts that rival any premium European counterpart.
"Integrating Chinese extraction efficiency with strict EU-GMP/US-FDA standards is the ultimate strategy for global brands searching for high-yield, low-cost bio-actives." - Chief Scientific Officer, UniCare

UniCare reinvests 10% of our annual net profit into research and development. Beyond streamlining current solvent-based extraction technologies, we maintain a dedicated lab targeting biochemical fermentation. This division strives to innovate beyond conventional chemical processes, utilizing microbial strains to create high-purity, bio-optimized active ingredients.
Our research works in active, ongoing collaboration with the prestigious Beijing University of Chemical Technology. Together, we translate novel laboratory-scale bio-actives into high-yield, industrialized products ready for pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and nutritional applications.
To establish absolute traceability, we manage direct cultivation partnerships with local farming communities, establishing specialized agricultural bases for Ginkgo Leaf, Epimedium, Phellodendron, and Olive Leaf. Several of these bases adhere strictly to Good Agricultural and Collection Practices (GACP) protocols. Furthermore, we partner with bio-botanical nurseries to conduct hybridization and non-GMO genome optimization, increasing active marker content in raw plants and lowering raw material costs for our global buyers.
How our customized active ingredients are shaping the future of global healthcare and functional formulations.
Modern consumers demand active ingredients with proven health benefits. Our standardized flavonoids (Rutin, Quercetin) and adaptogens (Rhodiola, Ginseng) act as the active cores for premium dietary supplements addressing cellular health, energy pathways, and cognitive function.
Clean beauty demands botanical efficacy. Our high-purity Olive Leaf and Grape Seed Extracts supply skin-defense systems with powerful natural antioxidants, safeguarding skin structures against environmental oxidants.
As sugar-reduction regulations expand, natural sweeteners like Stevia Extract provide zero-calorie solutions. Standardized green tea compounds additionally enrich functional beverages with metabolism-boosting, clean-label ingredients.
Streamlining global logistics, regional regulatory filings, and custom manufacturing needs for international buyers.
Global procurement goes beyond quality extraction; it requires seamless supply chain compliance.
