Explore our premium plant active ingredients exported worldwide under strict quality systems.
Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), chemically recognized as 2-[(all-E)-3,7,11,15,19,23,27,31,35,39-decamethyltetracontana-2,6,10,14,18,22,26,30,34,38-decaenyl]-5,6-dimethoxy-3-methyl-p-benzoquinone, is a critical lipid-soluble compound that serves as an essential electron carrier in the mitochondrial respiratory chain. Globally demanded for dietary supplements, functional foods, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals, CoQ10 plays a central role in generating cellular ATP.
As a premier global exporter, UniCare offers bulk Coenzyme Q10 powder manufactured using microbial fermentation processes. Our fermentation method utilizes high-yield bacterial strains (such as Rhodobacter sphaeroides), which naturally synthesize the trans-isomer configuration of CoQ10. This results in an ingredient that is structurally identical to the Coenzyme Q10 produced endogenously in the human body, providing superior bio-affinity, purity, and safety compared to synthetic alternatives.
Derived via microbial fermentation, ensuring 99%+ trans-isomer content and complete exclusion of synthetic chemical residues or cis-isomers.
Fully compliant with the latest United States Pharmacopeia (USP), European Pharmacopoeia (EP), and Japanese Pharmacopoeia (JP) quality standards.
Available in standard fat-soluble forms and advanced, water-dispersible (CWD) grades optimized for functional beverages and instant formulations.
China has developed into the hub of the global Coenzyme Q10 supply chain. By utilizing highly advanced bio-fermentation infrastructure, Chinese manufacturing plants achieve unparalleled economies of scale, coupled with strict regulatory compliance.
UniCare maintains deep, collaborative integration with China's top-tier GMP-certified botanical and biochemical manufacturers. This structural synergy allows us to balance competitive cost structures with strict quality standards. Our manufacturing partners house high-volume automated fermentation tanks, cleanroom environments, and modern analytical systems, ensuring long-term batch-to-batch consistency.
Our partner facilities leverage automated, continuous fermentation systems running under computerized monitoring. Factors like dissolved oxygen, pH, temperature, and feeding profiles are controlled programmatically, minimizing human error and maximizing yields.
From raw materials sourcing to isolation, purification, and crystal optimization, our operations reside close to major raw material production corridors. This proximity limits transportation footprints and insulates global buyers from market volatility.
Strategically placed close to major international shipping hubs, our logistics network provides expedited transit times, temperature-controlled distribution options, and customs clearance support to major regions including the USA, EU, and Asia-Pacific.

UniCare invests 10% of our annual net profit in research and development. In addition to optimizing and developing the existing natural plant extraction process, we have also established a professional R&D department for the natural fermentation products. By increasing investment in natural fermentation products, we try to break through the traditional processes and disrupt industry development.
UniCare has deep cooperation with Beijing University of Chemical Technology in the field of fermentation, jointly developing and transforming the new raw materials of pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and natural health products into mass-produced products.
In order to control raw materials more efficiently and with higher quality, a raw material procurement system has been established, which extends procurement to every piece of planting land and can trace the raw materials of each batch of products. The storage of raw materials is operated according to the advanced quality management system process, and the content of active ingredients, moisture, ash, heavy metals, pesticide residues and other items of raw materials are strictly controlled.
At the same time, in order to further ensure the high quality of important products, UniCare cooperated with planting farmers to establish ginkgo leaf planting bases, epimedium planting bases, phellodendron planting bases, olive leaf planting bases, etc. Some of these bases are planted strictly in accordance with the GACP (Good Agricultural and Collection Practices) management model. In addition, we cooperate with seedling research and development companies to develop high-content seedling cultivation, and cultivate better seedlings through hybridization or gene optimization, so as to continuously reduce unit costs to benefit users.
Global buyers have varied operational requirements. Pharmaceutical formulations demand active ingredients that comply with international pharmacopoeias and have verified stability profiles. In the nutricosmetics sector, fine mesh powder or oil suspensions are necessary for topical formulations. For dietary supplements, solubility and particle sizes are critical variables.
UniCare addresses these specifications by offering customized processing and formulation solutions:
Perfectly suited for softgel encapsulation. Dissolves cleanly in carrier lipids such as medium-chain triglycerides (MCT) oil, soybean oil, or sunflower lecithin.
Modified using micro-encapsulation technology. This Cold Water Dispersible (CWD) powder is designed for functional water, instant drink powders, and hard-shell capsule formulations.
For cosmetic creams, serums, and high-absorption functional beverages. Nano-sized emulsions improve dermal absorption and bioavailability.
The global Coenzyme Q10 market is expanding, driven by an aging demographic, growth in cardiovascular health awareness, and increasing applications in functional cosmetics. Current research indicates that CoQ10 works synergistically when combined with other active compounds, such as Ginkgo Biloba extract (for cognitive and circulatory support) or Quercetin (for cellular health).
More brands are shifting from single-ingredient supplements to multi-action complexes. CoQ10 is frequently blended with botanical extracts like Epimedium or Grape Seed Extract to target cardiovascular health, stamina, and cellular protection. At UniCare, we support developers by offering a comprehensive catalog of premium extracts alongside our CoQ10 line.
Consumers are actively demanding allergen-free, non-GMO, and solvent-safe ingredients. Our bio-fermented Ubiquinone is produced using natural substrates, excluding chemical solvents like acetone or hexane from the final recovery phase. This clean-label profiles fit the strict import requirements of the European Union, United States, and Japan.
