Tea Polyphenols Powder | Premium Green Tea Extract | Natural Antioxidant Solution for Food & Health Industries
Pharmaceutical Grade Tea Polyphenols Powder Hefei Fushan Yuansheng Biotechnology Co., Ltd. Product is derived from high quality tea leaves. We have a standardised extract with 30-98% total polyphenols with exact catechin profiles validated by HPLC analysis. We hold 54 domestic and international invention patents and have a PhD-led R&D team. We provide consistent batch quality and customisable specifications such as low-caffeine and pesticide-free formulations. Our product is produced according to GMP, ISO22000, HACCP standards and complies with China New Food Raw Materials, FDA GRAS, USP criteria, providing dependable natural antioxidant solutions for functional foods, nutritional supplements and cosmetics applications globally.
What Makes Our Tea Polyphenols Powder Different
Tea Polyphenols Powder is a concentrated phytochemical matrix with a high content of catechins, flavonoids and phenolic acids. Our product is not a generic green tea extract but is made using a state of the art water extraction method that protects the integrity of the bioactives while eliminating undesirable residues.
The major advantage is the exact standardisation of catechins. While many providers just report total polyphenols, we measure specific catechin fractions including EGCG, ECG, EGC, and EC using proven HPLC procedures. This pharmaceutical-grade technique provides reliable functional performance throughout your manufacturing batches.
Our extraction procedure delivers excellent water solubility with strong ORAC antioxidant values. This makes formulating a breeze whether you’re producing transparent drinks, encapsulated nutrients or cosmetic serums.

Core Product Advantages
High-Activity Standardized Extraction
We use only quality green tea leaves and precise extraction settings. This ensures maximum catechin absorption and consistent antioxidant power in every batch you get.
Advanced Contaminant Control
Our supply chain has stringent standards for pesticide residue screening and plasticiser removal. Heavy metals testing using ICP-MS with lead levels < 3.0 ppm to fulfil strict EU and FDA standards.
Flexible Caffeine Management
In natural green tea extracts caffeine is normally 2-10%. We provide tailor-made options such as decaffeinated variations (<0.5% caffeine) or naturally energising formulas, in line with your product positioning.
Multi-Gradient Content Options
From 30% polyphenols for cost-effective applications to 98% pharmaceutical-grade extracts, we can modify specifications to suit your formulation needs and target market expectations.
Broad Application Spectrum
Functional Foods & Beverages
Our cold water soluble grades are ideal for ready-to-drink teas, sports nutrition drinks and functional beverage powders. The natural antioxidant capability supports clean label placement and helps to increase the shelf life of the product.
Dietary Supplements
Correct levels of EGCG for making high strength capsules and tablets. Our extract is ideal for metabolic blends, cellular health formulas and antioxidant defence solutions that are clinically supported.
Cosmetics & Personal Care
Use our Tea Polyphenols Powder in anti-aging serums, protective creams and everyday skin care products. The polyphenol matrix has been demonstrated to possess free radical scavenging activity and benefits for skin health.
Animal Nutrition
Improve feed formulations for aquaculture and cattle. Natural antioxidants are not a problem for synthetic additives to boost growth performance and also support immune function.
Quality Assurance & Scientific Validation
Your security of supply relies on transparent quality processes. We monitor from receipt of raw materials right up to final packaging on an ongoing basis. All batches are extensively profiled for contaminants including pesticide multi-residue screening according to EC 396/2005.
HPLC fingerprinting eliminates adulteration with cheaper extracts like grape seed. We provide analytical certifications with comprehensive profiles of catechins, not simply overall percentages of polyphenols. This kind of forensic-level documentation safeguards your brand image and regulatory compliance.
Gas chromatography verifies residual solvents are within ICH Q3C criteria We test fire-dried leaf lots for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons to ensure safety for markets with rigorous PAH laws.
Understanding Polyphenol Fractions: Total Polyphenols vs. EGCG
Many buyers encounter confusion when comparing product specifications. Total polyphenols represent the complete phenolic compound family in tea extracts. Catechins form a subclass within this group, and EGCG stands as the most bioactive individual catechin.
For formulations targeting metabolic support or calorie expenditure, EGCG concentration matters most. A product with 50% total polyphenols but only 5% EGCG differs significantly from one with 50% total polyphenols containing 25% EGCG.
Always request HPLC documentation showing individual catechin percentages. This ensures your finished product delivers the clinical efficacy your marketing claims require.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q:What is the exact difference between total polyphenols, catechins, and EGCG?
A:Among plant polyphenols, the most active and clinically valuable component is EGCG from the catechin subclass. It serves as the core active ingredient promoting metabolism and calorie expenditure. Product formulations must precisely quantify EGCG content rather than referencing only total polyphenol levels to ensure clinical efficacy.
Q:Is the product guaranteed?
A:We guarantee that supplied products match confirmed samples exactly. Each batch undergoes strict testing before shipment, complying with Chinese, European, or US Pharmacopoeia standards.
Q:Does this extract contain caffeine?
A:Natural green tea extract conventionally contains 2-10% caffeine. We provide different solutions based on your formulation needs, including decaffeinated options and naturally energizing variants.
