Cooperative plant farm fields

Planting & GACP Sourcing

To control the purity of our inputs, our quality team manages sourcing down to the individual farm. Our materials are fully traceable from cultivation to final extract batch.

We manage cooperative planting fields for key botanicals, including ginkgo leaf, epimedium, phellodendron, and olive leaf bases. Several of these bases are managed under strict GACP (Good Agricultural and Collection Practices) models, applying non-GMO seedling cultivation to optimize active constituent concentrations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Technical answers to common sourcing, formulation, and quality assurance questions.

Q1: What parameters are included in UniCare’s certificate of analysis (COA) for cosmetic-grade plant extracts?
Every batch of UniCare cosmetic ingredients is accompanied by a comprehensive COA. Standard parameters include active component assay verification (typically measured via HPLC or UV-Vis), moisture and dry weight loss, total ash content, specific gravity, particle size distribution, trace solvent residue (via GC), heavy metals (ICP-MS testing for Pb, As, Hg, Cd), and microbiological limits (aerobic plate count, yeast/mold, and specific pathogen absence testing).
Q2: How does your facility ensure batches remain free from heavy metals and pesticide residue?
We manage contamination risk through a dual-gate screening system. First, raw agricultural inputs are tested prior to processing. Second, the finished extracts are analyzed using advanced ICP-MS and GC-MS-MS equipment in our CNAS-qualified laboratory. This process verifies that heavy metals and pesticide levels comply with USP, EP, and local FDA thresholds.
Q3: Are UniCare’s plant active ingredients compatible with clean beauty and vegan standards?
Yes, our cosmetic active ingredients are derived from botanical sources and are fully compatible with vegan requirements. We utilize clean extraction processes, including water and ethanol systems, to ensure our extracts align with clean beauty initiatives.
Q4: Can UniCare support custom target specifications or proprietary blend extractions?
Yes. Leveraging our multi-functional extraction loops and pilot-scale systems, we can tailor active ingredient ratios, adjust carrier excipients, or utilize specialized solvents to match your specific formulation requirements.
Q5: What is your standard lead time for global shipments of wholesale extracts?
Standard stocked items typically ship from our warehouse within 3 to 7 business days. Custom extractions or specialized large-scale packaging orders are subject to a 3 to 5 week production schedule, which includes full analytical validation before release.
