Production Process

Step 1 – Raw Material Selection: We source non-GMO rice bran from certified planting bases, subjecting each batch to incoming quality verification. Result: Traceable, pesticide-free raw materials meeting pharmaceutical-grade standards.

Step 2 – Stabilization Treatment: Immediate heat treatment neutralizes lipase enzymes within 2 hours of milling to prevent rancidity development. Result: Preserved bioactive integrity and extended extract shelf stability.

Step 3 – Supercritical CO2 Extraction: We employ food-grade carbon dioxide at controlled pressure and temperature to selectively extract target phytonutrients without chemical solvents. Result: Pure, residue-free concentrate with maximum bioactive retention.

Step 4 – Standardization and Concentration: Advanced chromatography techniques isolate and concentrate ferulic acid to 98% specification with consistent batch-to-batch uniformity. Result: Predictable potency for your formulation requirements.

Step 5 – Quality Verification: Our SGS-standard laboratory conducts comprehensive physical, chemical, microbiological, and heavy metal testing before release. Result: Certificate of Analysis guaranteeing specification compliance.

Step 6 – Sterile Packaging: We package in food-grade double-layer PE bags within fiber drums in our 100,000-level clean room environment. Result: Contamination-free products maintaining quality during storage and transportation.

Third Party Testing Report

Validation of antioxidant capacity: SGS independent DPPH and ORAC assay testing shows excellent free radical neutralisation performance, especially in preventing lipid peroxidation in high fat formulations.

Heavy Metal Compliance: Arsenic level <0.5ppm and Lead <0.8ppm are far beyond the international safety limits for botanical ingredients used in nutritional supplements and cosmetic use as confirmed by Eurofins laboratory testing.

Pesticide Residue Screening: Comprehensive multi-residue testing of 450+ pesticides at non-detectable levels to assist with organic/natural product certifications for your final product.
