How global functional food, pharmaceutical, and livestock innovators leverage standardized Oleuropein to create high-value products.
Oleuropein, a highly bio-active secoiridoid glycoside native to the leaves of the olive tree (Olea europaea L.), has emerged as a premium component in modern preventive medicine and nutraceutical formulations. Global B2B procurement demands for Oleuropein have risen significantly due to its scientifically backed capabilities, including cardiovascular system support, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation resistance, blood glucose regulation, and broad-spectrum antimicrobial properties.
Large-scale buyers—ranging from multinational dietary supplement brands in North America and Western Europe to cosmetic manufacturers in East Asia—face significant challenges when sourcing bulk ingredients. The key issues are ensuring consistent concentrations of active compounds, preventing pesticide contamination, and maintaining supply chain stability. At UniCare, we address these challenges through standardized phytochemistry. We offer customized assays ranging from 10% to 80% HPLC-validated Oleuropein, combined with strict controls for residual solvents and heavy metals.
In animal nutrition and agriculture, Oleuropein is also increasingly utilized as a natural substitute for antibiotics (AGPs). Its natural defenses help improve gut health in livestock, which has led to high-volume procurement demands from major animal feed producers worldwide. As a result, suppliers must maintain large, scalable production capabilities and secure steady access to raw agricultural materials.
Promotes arterial health, supports healthy nitric oxide production, and helps manage normal blood pressure levels, making it a key ingredient in premium heart health formulations.
Exhibits natural antiviral, antibacterial, and antifungal actions. It is widely used in wellness supplements designed to strengthen seasonal immune response.
Neutralizes free radicals and mitigates skin aging caused by UV exposure. It is highly valued in high-end cosmetic serums and skin-barrier protection formulations.
Unmatched extraction infrastructure, engineered for batch consistency, scaling up to 30,000 tons of botanical processing annually.
UniCare prioritizes high-performance industrial equipment. We partner with some of China's largest and most advanced extraction facilities, which run on automated, intelligent control systems to manage extraction parameters such as temperature, pressure, and solvent flow.
Our extraction facility includes two certified GMP workshops and six multi-functional industrial extraction lines. Among these is a specialized acetone-process extraction line for Ginkgo Biloba Extract, built to meet stringent EU-GMP compliance standards. Our plant processing capacity reaches up to 30,000 tons of raw herbs annually, securing a reliable, uninterrupted supply for high-volume international buyers.
To support biological transformation, our plant features six large-scale 20-ton fermentation tanks. These are used to produce enzyme-modified products, allowing us to enhance the bioavailability of active plant molecules and develop customized specifications.
All facility operations, material flows, and cleanroom zones strictly adhere to GMP regulations.
Our Ginkgo Biloba Extract extraction facilities hold EU-GMP and CEP certifications.
Production steps are monitored using an integrated DCS automated control system for consistent extraction runs.
Equipped with pressurized hot-reflux extraction systems and high-throughput countercurrent columns.
Capable of processing high volumes of raw botanical materials to ensure steady inventory levels.
Includes three annular dynamic countercurrent extraction lines (10 & 15 tons) and two multi-functional systems (32 extraction tanks, 6m³ each).
Our CNAS-qualified testing center ensures complete trace analysis, active ingredient confirmation, and safety verification.
To maintain strict quality control, UniCare runs a CNAS-standard testing laboratory. This center is responsible for testing raw materials, in-process intermediates, and finished product batches. We analyze critical markers including target compounds, heavy metals (Lead, Arsenic, Mercury, Cadmium, Copper), pesticide residues (using organochlorine GC-MS/MS methods), residual solvents, and microbiological profiles.

Integrating biotechnology, university research partnerships, and GACP-managed cultivation bases to build a secure, transparent supply chain.
We reinvest 10% of our annual net profits directly into our research and development programs. Beyond optimizing traditional extraction, we operate a dedicated R&D division for natural fermentation products. Our goal is to leverage biochemical engineering to improve processing efficiency and create high-bioavailability variants. We collaborate with the Beijing University of Chemical Technology to co-develop, test, and scale up functional ingredients for the global pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and health industries.
To ensure raw material quality, we manage a traceable procurement system that tracks each batch back to its original planting field. Storage and testing follow strict quality management protocols, checking for active compound concentration, moisture, ash, heavy metals, and pesticide residues. To stabilize supply for our key products, we partner directly with local farmers to run cultivation bases for ginkgo leaf, epimedium, phellodendron, and olive leaf. Several of these bases are managed strictly under GACP models. Additionally, we collaborate with agricultural research firms to develop high-yield crop variants through selection and hybridization, helping to optimize costs and pass those savings on to our clients.
Our core values drive our technological advancements, product quality, and collaborative client relationships.
