Each factory has independent testing capabilities and is equipped with advanced and efficient testing equipment to ensure the high quality and long-term stability of each batch of products.
Our guiding values drive scientific innovation, social development, and client satisfaction globally.
We continuously investigate plant biomes to extract potential compounds, creating value-added active ingredients for functional wellness.
Optimizing dynamic extraction techniques, purification rates, and sustainable yields to exceed modern market criteria.
Integrating state-of-the-art automation systems to manufacture high-purity botanicals with exceptional batch consistency.
Fostering an equitable workplace environment for researchers and plant growers while maintaining zero-emission goals to protect local environments.
Scientific conversion of ginsenosides through high-temperature thermochemical processing to enhance pharmacological efficacy.
Compared to traditional White or Red Ginseng, Black Ginseng Extract undergoes a rigorous "Nine-Steam-Nine-Dry" thermal modification process. This repeated steaming alters the molecular profiles of original saponins. The polar ginsenosides (such as Rb1, Rc, Rd, Re, and Rg1) are converted into highly bioactive, non-polar rare ginsenosides: Rg3, Rg5, Rk1, and Rh2.
These specialized secondary metabolites exhibit vastly improved lipophilicity, making it easier for them to cross cell membranes. This process significantly enhances the extract's bioavailability in the human body, providing benefits for mitochondrial support, cognitive optimization, and metabolic vitality.
To support high-purity demands, our technological roadmap integrates enzymatic modification alongside thermal processing. By utilizing food-grade beta-glucosidases, we break down specific sugar chains. This allows us to convert major saponins into target rare compounds like Rg3 with precise chemical stability, reducing the necessity of prolonged heating which can otherwise degrade other active fractions.
Looking ahead, UniCare is developing microencapsulated and water-dispersible formulations of Black Ginseng Extract. By applying natural emulsifier matrices, we resolve the natural astringency and hydrophobic limitations of rare ginsenosides, ensuring smooth formulation integrations for ready-to-drink functional beverages and cosmetic anti-aging formulations.
Unlocking supply chain resilience, high processing capabilities, and digital monitoring systems.

From seed cultivation to university-backed biochemistry transformation.
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 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.
