What Makes Our Dark Plum Powder Different

Precise Standardization for Consistent Results

Dark plum (Prunus mume) has been used for hundreds of years in traditional medicine. We've taken this botanical history and put it together with current extraction science to make a reliable ingredient for use in industrial products.

The highest quality dark plums are used to make our powder. They are carefully chosen, washed, treated with enzymes, and dried with a spray. The end result is a fine, dark brown powder that has standardised active chemicals, mostly malic acid and citric acid, which can be tested by HPLC.

This standardisation solves a very important problem for manufacturers: variation from batch to batch. Each lot gives you the same performance, which makes quality control and following the rules easier.

Applications Across Industries

Dietary Supplement Manufacturers

Make pills and tablets that are good for your gut system and your metabolism. The great flowability and compressibility of our powder make the process of making tablets easier.

Beverage Product Developers

Make healthy drinks and plant teas that are naturally sour. It dissolves more than 95% of the time in both hot and cold liquids, so the solutions are clear and don't form precipitates.

Functional Food Brands

Add to snack items, meal replacement bars, and protein bars. Process-safe up to 120°C in terms of heat.

Cosmetic Formulators

Natural fruit acids are gentle exfoliants that can be used on the face. Standard makeup bases can be used with this.

Quality Systems That Protect Your Brand

Your brand's image can be hurt quickly by contamination, inconsistent potency, or not following the rules set by regulators.

That's why we've built quality into every step:

Multi-Level Testing Protocol

• Raw material identity testing (TLC, HPLC)
• In-process monitoring at 7 critical control points
• Finished product testing (potency, purity, microbiology)
• Third-party verification available upon request

International Certifications

• cGMP: Pharmaceutical-grade manufacturing standards
• FSSC22000: Global food safety benchmarking
• ISO9001: Quality management system

These aren't just certificates on the wall - they represent daily operational discipline that protects your supply chain.

From Fruit to Powder: Our Production Process

Step 1: Raw Material Selection

We get our dark plums from controlled growth areas and choose the ripest fruit based on its colour, sugar content, and acidity level. Before processing, each batch's name is checked.

Step 2: Preparation & Extraction

After being washed with clean water, fruits are handled with enzymes to get the most out of their active compounds while keeping their nutritional value.

Step 3: Concentration

Low-temperature vacuum concentration gets rid of extra water and keeps heat-sensitive substances safe. This step is very important for keeping biological action going.

Step 4: Spray Drying

Our high-tech spray dryer works with exactly controlled inlet and exit temperatures (160°C and 80°C), making particles that are all the same size and have the right amount of moisture and flow.

Step 5: Standardization & Blending

HPLC is used to analyse the batches and mix them so that the exact 98% citric acid standard is met.

Step 6: Quality Release

Before a batch moves, it has to pass our 23-point quality checklist and get COA approval from our QC head.
