High-purity botanical raw ingredients sourced globally to optimize product efficacy and stability in Serbian manufacturing plants.
Serbia is renowned worldwide for its high-quality fresh and frozen red raspberries (specifically the Ariljska malina). However, a significant paradigm shift is occurring within the domestic food processing and nutraceutical industries. Local manufacturers in Belgrade, Novi Sad, and Niš are increasingly shifting from raw fruit handling toward high-value formulation. This transition creates a surging industrial demand for standardized, free-flowing, and water-soluble Raspberry Powder.
Unlike raw agricultural fruit, processed industrial raspberry powder serves as a critical active ingredient for instant beverages, dairy modifications (yogurt and functional desserts), health supplements, and organic cosmetics. Because Serbian manufacturers require consistent moisture levels, precise particle sizing (mesh), and predictable active compound concentrations (such as natural Ellagic Acid and Anthocyanins) year-round, local sourcing of processed raw materials can be highly seasonal and economically volatile. Partnering with a large-scale international supplier ensures a robust raw material supply chain.
Matching rigorous technical parameters to target formulations for Serbian manufacturers.

| Appearance & Color | Fine pink to reddish pink powder | Deep purple-red free-flowing powder |
| Solubility | ≥ 98% water soluble (ideal for beverages) | Partially soluble (contains natural berry fiber) |
| Active Tracers | Anthocyanins, Ellagic Acid, Vitamin C | Highly retained Natural Vitamins, Flavonoids |
| Particle Size (Mesh) | 80 - 100 Mesh | 60 - 80 Mesh / Custom Granulations |
| Carrier Options | Maltodextrin, Acacia Gum, or Carrier-Free | 100% Pure, Carrier-Free |
| Moisture Content | ≤ 5.0% | ≤ 4.0% |
Ideal for chocolates, premium cream fillings, and traditional biscuits (Keks) where rich natural berry flavor and heat-stable pigmentation are required without adding excessive water volume.
Formulated into dietary antioxidant capsules, collagen premixes, and pre-workout sports nutrition powders targeting health-conscious consumers in Belgrade and across the Balkans.
Highly soluble spray-dried grades disperse instantly in milk, yogurt, and functional fruit juices, ensuring a smooth mouthfeel with no gritty sedimentation.
Bridging Chinese manufacturing excellence with local Serbian logistics and regulatory standards.
UniCare is a leading, specialized supplier of natural active ingredients and fruit-based powders. We coordinate closely with advanced Chinese production facilities that hold GMP, EU-GMP, CEP, ISO9001, ISO22000, and HACCP certifications. By integrating digital, automated extraction and drying systems, we bypass human processing errors and ensure that every container of Raspberry Powder exported to Serbia exhibits identical flavor, color density, and microbiological purity.
Our strategic proximity to key transit ports in China and our familiarity with European customs clearances make us a reliable supplier for Serbian manufacturing businesses. We offer comprehensive localized support, including custom packaging options (double-layered food-grade PE bags inside heavy-duty 25kg cardboard drums) and complete technical documentation (COA, Allergen Statement, Non-GMO declarations, and MSDS).

A closer look at China's premier botanical extraction and processing hub.
UniCare operates the largest and most technologically advanced extraction facility in China. The entire processing system runs on a modern, intelligent, automated control mechanism that minimizes manual errors and maximizes solvent extraction efficiency. Our facilities boast two GMP-certified clean workshops and six multi-functional extraction lines, alongside dedicated spray-drying and vacuum freeze-drying suites optimized for fruit powders.
Ensuring complete chemical, physical, and microbiological safety for Serbian imports.
To comply with Serbian customs regulations and strict European phytosanitary rules, every batch of our fruit powders and botanical extracts undergoes comprehensive laboratory testing. Our CNAS-accredited Central Laboratory operates advanced diagnostic equipment to perform exact chemical profiling and identify potential contaminants before any shipment leaves our warehouses.
Key parameters analyzed include: active marker identification via HPLC or UV-Vis, GC-MS analysis for residual solvents and organochlorine pesticide residues, ICP-MS analysis for heavy metals (lead, arsenic, mercury, cadmium, copper), and comprehensive microbiological verification (aerobic plate count, yeast and mold, E. coli, Salmonella).
We trace every batch from the seedling stage to the final packaged powder.
We invest 10% of our annual net profits directly into our internal Research and Development department. In addition to optimizing traditional drying techniques for fruit powders, we are pioneers in industrial natural fermentation. Our long-term cooperation with the prestigious Beijing University of Chemical Technology allows us to develop and scale up innovative natural health compounds, biocatalysts, and clean-label ingredients for mass production.
Furthermore, to manage the cost and quality of our raw materials, we work closely with localized farming cooperatives. We have established agricultural planting bases for Ginkgo Biloba, Epimedium, Phellodendron, and Olive Leaves under strict GACP (Good Agricultural and Collection Practices) guidelines. This direct agricultural oversight minimizes pesticide drift and guarantees that our starting materials meet safety requirements before processing begins.
