Explore our specialized wholesale functional plant and herbal extractions engineered to international quality thresholds.
Pandanus leaf powder, derived from the leaves of the tropical plant Pandanus amaryllifolius (commonly referred to as Screwpine), has transitioned from a localized culinary staple in Southeast Asia to an internationally sought-after active raw material. It contains a high concentration of 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline (2-AP), the volatile organic compound responsible for its signature nutty, sweet, and toasted-basmati-rice aroma.
Modern phytochemistry has isolated multiple active compounds within the plant matrix, including piperidine alkaloids, carotenoids, and a diverse range of polyphenolic antioxidants. In B2B formulations, the primary challenge remains preserving these delicate aromatic compounds and the natural, chlorophyll-based green pigment. Thermal degradation and enzymatic oxidation are the principal threats during post-harvest handling and dehydration.
As global markets enforce rigorous clean-label mandates and phase out synthetic colors (such as FD&C Yellow No. 5 and Green No. 3), ODM manufacturers are deploying advanced stabilization procedures. The integration of high-purity Pandanus Leaf Extract meets the demand for botanical clean-label coloring, functional blood sugar modulation support, and natural flavoring systems.
A synergistic ecosystem backed by Xi'an Tianben Bioengineering Co., Ltd. and Botanical Cube Inc.
Our extraction technology and specialized functional raw materials serve more than 200 countries and regions. Exporting to over 60% of the world's functional food and dietary supplement manufacturers, we sustain supply lines for more than 500 enterprise customers across the globe.
Providing a versatile portfolio of certified organic natural products. We address strict EU regulation thresholds, FDA dietary supplement guidelines, and global sustainability standards with fully documented certificates of analysis (COA) for all raw materials.
Our primary manufacturing asset, the Sanyuan Factory, was established in 2012 in Sanyuan City, Shaanxi, just four years following the initiation of our parent entity. During these early operational phases, we faced and resolved complex chemical engineering challenges, which helped us optimize our extraction yields and solvent recovery cycles.
By investing heavily in technology, ongoing training, and strict QA protocols, we developed standard operating procedures that keep us ahead of the competition. Today, the Sanyuan facility handles high-throughput milling, concentration, purification, and drying processes under a single unified quality management program.
To eliminate physical, chemical, and microbiological cross-contamination, all crucial downstream operations—including powder collection, crushing, sieving, blending, and sterile packaging—are conducted inside a sealed Class 100,000 cleanroom environment.
Operators strictly follow cleanroom protocols, wearing sterile gowns, anti-static hair covers, mask systems, and cleanroom gloves. Air handlers equipped with HEPA filtration run continuously to control dust particles and preserve product purity, ensuring consistent safety for sensitive baby food, premium beverage, and dietary supplement formulations.
Why China-based extraction bases offer the best balance of cost efficiency, supply chain stability, and technical quality.
Xi'an is a global hub for plant extracts. We source leaves from contract farms in Southern China and Southeast Asia, processing them through a streamlined regional network to keep transportation costs low and processing speeds fast.
Using low-temperature freeze drying (FD) and vacuum spray drying (SD), our facilities retain volatile aromatics like 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline. The result is a vibrant green, highly soluble powder that outperforms sun-dried alternatives.
Equipped with GC-MS and HPLC instruments to monitor pesticide residues, heavy metals, and active ingredient stability. We ensure compliance with strict US FDA, Health Canada, and European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) regulations.
Our raw material processing capacity handles high-volume orders without seasonal price spikes. This scale gives global brands predictable pricing and supply security for large product launches.

How global R&D teams utilize Pandanus Leaf Powder across food, cosmetic, and wellness sectors.
Pandanus leaf powder serves as a clean-label alternative to synthetic green colorants and artificial flavors in boba milk teas, plant-based milks (oat, coconut), and botanical drink syrups. It offers a naturally sweet, aromatic profile that pairs well with coconut cream and matcha.
Clinical research suggests that *Pandanus amaryllifolius* extracts help modulate postprandial glucose levels. This makes the powder a valuable functional ingredient in glucose-management capsules, wellness teas, and metabolic support blends.
While natural chlorophyll is heat-sensitive, our customized formulation blends protect the pigment matrix. This allows bakers to maintain a light green hue and aromatic profiles in sponge cakes, waffles, and confectionery glazes.
Rich in carotenoids and polyphenols, Pandanus powder acts as a mild skin-conditioning agent. Its natural green color and subtle aroma make it ideal for clay masks, botanical soaps, and body scrubs looking for clean-beauty positioning.
Addressing the procurement challenges of international buyers through structured ODM supply agreements.
We adjust mesh sizes (80 mesh for teas to 200 mesh for instant beverages) and offer carrier options like maltodextrin or clean-label acacia gum to match your equipment requirements.
Our team provides full regulatory dossiers, including allergen statements, non-GMO declarations, heavy metal profiles via ICP-MS, and third-party laboratory reports.
Available in bulk sizes (25 kg fiber drums with food-grade double PE lining) or custom private-label retail pouches. We handle logistics with customs clearing support for the US, EU, and Asia Pacific.
Key indicators and developments driving B2B sourcing decisions over the next five years.
Consumer rejection of synthetic colors (like Tartrazine or Brilliant Blue) is accelerating regulatory changes worldwide. In response, global food developers are looking for plant-based alternatives that match the visual and sensory properties of synthetics. Pandanus leaf powder provides a natural green hue alongside a highly recognizable aroma profile, filling a key gap in the market.
The primary innovation focus in plant extraction is preserving volatile compounds. Our R&D team works with low-temperature vacuum systems that prevent heat-induced damage to delicate molecules like 2-AP. This ensures the powder retains its characteristic sensory profile over a longer shelf life.
In clinical settings, plant compounds that slow down carb digestion are gaining interest. Bioactive screenings show that Pandanus leaf compounds can inhibit alpha-glucosidase enzymes, paving the way for its use in metabolic support supplements and clinical nutrition.
Global brands now require full farm-to-factory traceability. By managing our contract farms and processing facilities directly, we provide verified tracking of agricultural practices, water usage, and labor standards to satisfy corporate ESG audits.
