Targeted plant-derived active ingredients tested for heavy metals and purity levels required by Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) regulations.
The New Zealand natural health products and complementary medicines sector is globally renowned for its stringent standards and focus on purity. With consumers increasingly seeking functional foods, active cosmetics, and clinically backed dietary supplements, the sourcing of premium plant extracts has become a critical strategic driver for local manufacturers.
In accordance with the Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) Joint Food Standards Code and the upcoming regulatory shifts in the natural health products sector managed by Medsafe and the Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI), NZ businesses require active ingredients that boast documented traceability, lack of cross-contamination, and precise active compound standardization.
This is where Botanical Cube Inc. bridges the gap. By integrating our high-capacity Chinese manufacturing base in Shaanxi (the global epicentre of botanical extraction) with direct localization insights, we provide NZ raw material buyers with unparalleled chemical consistency and biosecurity peace of mind.
Unlocking plant bioactives through cutting-edge chemical science and scalable manufacturing.
Benefiting from the solid foundation provided by its parent company, Xi'an Tianben Bioengineering Co., Ltd., Botanical Cube Inc. focuses on researching, developing, producing, and selling healthy natural ingredients. With more than two decades of industry experience, it has become a leader in the field, specializing in providing high-quality plant extracts and customized solutions to global customers.
Our operations are supported by three integrated enterprises - Xi'an Tianben Bioengineering Co., Ltd., Botanical Cube Inc., and Shaanxi Tianben Kangyuan Biotechnology Co., Ltd. - which together operate 3 production bases covering more than 100 acres and process more than 3,000 tons of plant raw materials each year.
Our certified export range includes more than 200 plant extracts, meeting international standards. We supply organic-compliant solutions to over 500 customers across 60% of the world's countries, facilitating access to highly stable, bioavailable active phytochemicals.
Our primary facility was established in 2012 in Sanyuan County, Xi'an. From early beginnings, we committed to systematic technical advancement. By continuously investing in high-efficiency extraction equipment, chromatography refinement systems, and advanced training protocols, we built a production framework capable of maintaining strict batch-to-batch chemical profiling consistency.
Powder collection, crushing, sieving, blending, and ultimate vacuum packaging processes are all strictly performed inside a Class 100,000 cleanroom environment. This cleanroom area operates with high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filtration systems, maintaining positive air pressure, regulated humidity, and temperature. Our operators strictly follow sanitized entry protocols, sterile gowns, masks, and gloves to eliminate microbiological load, ensuring that final powders meet both GMP standards and strict import guidelines for foreign biotox-sensitive markets like New Zealand.
Sourcing scale backed by analytical science and rigorous certification.
We provide full verification pathways to comply with the Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI) and FSANZ criteria.
All biological raw materials undergo thorough heat sterilisation and vacuum preservation processes, and are accompanied by complete phytosanitary paperwork to ensure smooth customs clearance.
Every single batch is tested via ICP-MS to ensure strict compliance with FSANZ limits: Lead <3.0 ppm, Cadmium <1.0 ppm, Arsenic <1.0 ppm, and Mercury <0.1 ppm.
We use state-of-the-art gas chromatography to verify that Class II residual solvents (such as ethanol) are strictly within safe thresholds for dietary supplements.
We work in partnership with third-party testing laboratories (such as SGS and Eurofins) to provide independent Certificate of Analysis (COA) cross-verification for your peace of mind.
How our premium plant extracts are integrated into New Zealand's key consumer markets.
New Zealand is a dominant force in global dairy. Integrating standardized botanical bioactives—such as gingerols or glucoraphanin—into premium grass-fed milk powder, colostrum, and protein blends allows NZ dairy brands to manufacture high-value functional offerings for global export markets.
With local regulations placing high value on clinical verification, NZ nutraceutical brands utilize our standardized phytochemically active powders (e.g., Nobiletin, Corosolic Acid, Magnolol) to construct high-efficacy, repeatable therapeutic dosages in hard capsules, softgels, and oral drops.
New Zealand's clean skincare sector relies on botanical ingredients with reliable antioxidant profiles. Standardized ginger root extracts, black pepper extracts, and licorice derivatives are utilized to create premium botanical creams, active serums, and barrier-protection lotions.
Premium botanical extracts developed in GMP-compliant facilities for New Zealand’s food, supplement, and cosmetics sectors.
Expert clarifications regarding regulatory compliances, delivery logistics, and quality assurance processes for New Zealand B2B buyers.
All our plant extracts undergo strict dry-heat, high-pressure steam, or ethanol sterilization methods to eliminate biological hazards before vacuum-sealed packaging. We provide a complete Certificate of Analysis (COA) along with clear plant taxonomy classification, ensuring the raw material is classified as 'permissible import' under the MPI Biosecurity guidelines for New Zealand.
We work closely with your product development team to establish the required active ingredient marker values (e.g., standardizing Gingerol to 10% or Piperine to 95%). Our research department prepares pilot batches which are validated via HPLC testing. Once the chemical profile matches your requirements, production scales up inside our Sanyuan Class 100,000 cleanroom facility.
Our manufacturing processes are segmented within closed-loop extraction lines. The final milling, blending, and sieve procedures are restricted to cleanroom sections using sterile equipment. For carrier matrices, we utilize organic-compliant non-GMO maltodextrin or premium rice hulls, ensuring clean-label compliance for the NZ marketplace.
Every botanical batch is dispatched with a full documentation pack: a batch-specific COA, MSDS, Allergen Statement, GMO-Free Declaration, BSE/TSE-Free Statement, Flow Chart of manufacturing, and MPI-ready shipping paperwork.
Yes. While we test every batch internally using high-resolution ICP-MS and GC-MS equipment, we can also coordinate third-party testing with internationally certified laboratories such as SGS, Eurofins, or Pony Testing Group to verify compliance with Australia-New Zealand Food Standards Code (FSANZ) requirements.
Standard stock items are dispatched within 3-5 working days. For custom extractions or OEM specifications, production typically takes 2-3 weeks. Shipping via air freight directly to Auckland, Wellington, or Christchurch takes 7-10 days, while ocean freight routes take 25-35 days.
Secure reliable bulk pricing, batch-consistent standardization, and regulatory document support for the New Zealand marketplace.
