Premium bulk botanical raw materials and active compounds sourced from GMP-certified facilities.
The global food, beverage, and dietary supplement industries are undergoing a massive transition. Due to rising health consciousness, regulatory sugar taxes, and a shift toward clean labels, multinational enterprises are actively replacing traditional nutritive sugars with zero-calorie alternatives. Natural extracts like Stevia (steviol glycosides), Monk Fruit (Mogrosides), and sugar alcohols like Erythritol, Xylitol, and Allulose form the backbone of modern reformulations.
However, securing a reliable B2B supply of these sweeteners involves balancing sweetness profile match, thermal stability, solubility, and cost-in-use metrics. Finding a qualified bulk supplier capable of navigating strict regulatory standards (FDA GRAS, EFSA, JECFA) and maintaining consistent molecular purity is critical for continuous production runs. UniCare integrates raw botanical cultivation with modern separation technologies to address these industrial procurement bottlenecks.

Unlocking hidden molecular capacities and phytochemical efficacy via structural research.
Advancing multi-stage purification and biological yield parameters through iterative chemical optimization.
Deploying automated continuous loop countercurrent extraction pipelines and high-end spectroscopy.
Sustaining fair agricultural trade practices with smallholder botanical farming networks.
Mitigating taste profile challenges, off-notes, and stability metrics in industrial formulation.
We supply custom formulations combining Erythritol with high-intensity steviol glycosides (Reb A, Reb D, Reb M). This blending covers the sensory delay of stevia and mimics the volume, mouthfeel, and clean taste curve of sucrose without cooling effects.
For beverage applications requiring low pH pasteurization (like juices and carbonated soft drinks), our stevia and monk fruit extracts retain sweetness metrics without chemical breakdown or sedimentation over long shelf-lives.
Traditional sweeteners leave metallic or licorice-like aftertastes. By co-processing with botanical maskers from plant extracts, we offer manufacturers clean sweet profiles without synthetic taste-modifying additives.
Unmatched industrial scale extraction, automation, and special processing lines in China.
UniCare attaches great importance to the hardware conditions of production equipment and has the largest and most advanced extraction factory in China. The entire production line in UniCare is controlled by a modern, intelligent, automatic control system. Until now, UniCare has built up two GMP workshops, containing six multi-functional extraction lines, among which there is the only production line for Ginkgo Biloba Extract of acetone process in the whole China. Here are several other production lines including fermentation production lines and Chinese medicine pieces. A total of 30,000 tons of various Chinese medicine plant raw materials can be processed each year.

Vertical integration from high-content seed cultivation to customized enzymatic fermentation.
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 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.
Pioneering precision fermentation and enzymatic glycosylation for next-generation sugar alternatives.
Using engineered yeast strains to ferment rare glycosides (like Reb M and Reb D) directly from glucose, significantly lowering production costs and eliminating the massive land-use footprints of traditional crop cultivation.
