Product Description

Premium Tea Catechins Extract – High-Purity Standardized Antioxidant Solution for Functional Nutrition Applications 

Hefei Fushan Yuansheng Biotechnology Co., Ltd. offers pharmaceutical-grade tea catechins extract extracted from high-quality Camellia sinensis leaves using modern water extraction technology. Our extract is standardised to provide accurate levels of EC (Epicatechin), ECG (Epicatechin Gallate) and EGC (Epigallocatechin) with total catechins content ranging from 50% to 98% depending on the formulation you’re creating.

With more than 13 years functional nutrition experience and a portfolio of more than 54 filed patents, we deliver raw materials that are FDA GRAS, USP and China New Food Raw Material compliant. Our extraction technology allows for pesticide residue removal, plasticiser removal and low-caffeine customisation, while being clean-label compatible and regulatory compliant, for global health and wellness businesses.

What Is Tea Catechins Extract and Why It Matters for Your Product Line

Product is a highly concentrated polyphenolic fraction rich in monomeric flavan-3-ols such as EGCG, ECG, EGC and EC. These bioactive chemicals are strong hydrogen donors that mop up reactive oxygen species (ROS) and help keep metabolism healthy.

Unlike raw tea granules, standardised catechin extracts may address major formulation issues. You have exact dose control, increased bioavailability and clear label antioxidant protection without the sensory disturbance of extra tannins or caffeine. Making the substance excellent for metabolic supplements, functional drinks, anti-aging skincare and natural preservation solutions.

Our Tea Catechins Extract provides predictable effectiveness from batch to batch for producers looking for thermogenic assistance or glycaemic regulation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q:What is the exact difference between total polyphenols, catechins, and EGCG?

A:Total polyphenols represent a broad category of plant compounds. Catechins form a subclass within polyphenols, comprising 60–80% of green tea's polyphenolic profile. EGCG is the most clinically significant catechin, responsible for metabolic and antioxidant activity. For therapeutic efficacy, formulations must specify EGCG content—not just total polyphenols.

Q:Does this extract contain caffeine?

A:Natural green tea extract conventionally contains 2–10% caffeine. We offer different solutions based on your formulation needs, including low-caffeine customization for sensitive applications.

Q:Is the product guaranteed?

A:Yes. We guarantee that manufactured products match your confirmed samples. Each batch undergoes strict pre-shipment testing in compliance with Chinese, European, or US Pharmacopoeia standards.
