Hefei Fushan Yuansheng Biotechnology Co., Ltd. Pharmaceutical Grade Theaflavins Green Tea Extract With Water Extraction Protocols From Top Grade Camellia sinensis Leaf. Our standardised extract has 20-60% theaflavins concentration and may be tailored to exact formulation specifications. Unlike ordinary green tea catechin extracts, our theaflavins are the bio-transformed “tea gold” fraction and provide higher molecular stability, greater cellular permeability and focused support for lipid metabolism. All batches are tested under GMP, ISO22000, HACCP and HALAL certifications with strict UV and heavy metal testing to meet China New Food Raw Materials, FDA GRAS and USP requirements. You get constant quality for functional drinks, nutritional supplements and cosmetic applications with a shelf life of 3 years when kept appropriately.

Green Tea Extract Theaflavins is a purified polyphenol fraction generated from the enzymatic oxidation of green tea catechins (EGCG and EGC) by polyphenol oxidase. This extract is a light yellow to reddish brown powder and contains a complex mixture of Theaflavin (TF), Theaflavin-3-gallate (TF3G), Theaflavin-3’-gallate (TF3’G) and Theaflavin-3,3’-digallate (TFDG).
Theaflavins are stable at pH 3.0–5.5, but monomeric catechins are rapidly destroyed in heat processing. Their lipophilic affinity is stronger, and so they have superior cell membrane permeability and higher bioavailability than ordinary EGCG extracts. This molecular edge makes for more cardiovascular support and better metabolism.
Our Theaflavins Green Tea Extract is a solution for formulators who face the instability of catechins in functional foods and the critical issue of holding strength throughout product shelf life. The reddish-orange colour also offers natural colour without sacrificing label promises.

Theaflavins Green Tea Extract is a flexible raw resource for several sectors:
Functional Foods & Beverages: Perfect for antioxidant-rich solid beverages, sports nutrition drinks and metabolic support formulas. Its resilience in acidic environments makes it an ideal candidate for ready-to-drink tea products.”
Dietary Supplements: Formulate capsules and pressed candies for cardiovascular health, cholesterol control, and cellular antioxidant protection. The standardised theaflavin content guarantees uniform dosing in each batch of manufacture.
Cosmetics & Personal Care: Throw in anti-aging serums, face creams and skin brightening treatments. Theaflavins provide strong antioxidant activity that protects against free radical damage and supports the formation of collagen.
Aquaculture & Animal Nutrition: New study demonstrates benefits of theaflavins for gut health and immunological response in livestock and aquatic animals.
Selection of raw materials: Before the extraction we use leaves from restricted production areas in China with a high level of polyphenols.
Advanced Purification Tech: Through our water-based extraction technique, we can remove pesticide residue and eliminate plasticiser. You may also choose low-caffeine customisation (normal green tea extracts naturally contain 2-10% caffeine).
Multi-Gradient Customisation: Require 20% theaflavins for a cost-effective formulation or 60% for clinical-grade supplements? We provide batch-to-batch consistency with HPLC fingerprinting verification.
Regulatory Compliance Excellence: All shipments are sent with extensive paperwork showing compliance with Chinese, European and US Pharmacopoeia standards. Heavy metal analysis is performed using ICP-MS technique (Pb <1.0ppm, As <0.5ppm, Hg <0.1ppm) and pesticide residue screening for more than 450 chemicals under European MRL standards.
When acquiring Theaflavins Green Tea Extract, insist on these key QC validations:
HPLC Monomer Fingerprinting: Confirms exact ratios of TF1, TF2 and TF3 – the determinants of biological effectiveness. Claims of “total theaflavins” without breakdown of monomers may imply adulteration.
Solvent Residue Testing: We use water extraction, however in multi-product factories there is a possibility of cross contamination. Confirm ethyl acetate or ethanol levels are below USP/EP standards (<5000ppm).
Stability in accelerated conditions: Data from 40°C/75% RH for 24 months please. To distinguish the better grades from the deteriorated ones, the colour is consistent and potency retained.
Microbial Safety: Ensure no E. coli, Salmonella, and yeast/mold, beyond aerobic plate counts, to avoid downstream formulation problems.
Hefei Fushan Yuansheng Biotechnology has 54 innovation patents in China and abroad (over 30 authorised). It has a PhD team in charge of R&D in molecular nutrition. It combines 13 years of experience in plant extracts with the latest Nrf2 pathway research. This means we are a fully integrated supply chain from seed through to clinical application assistance and you get not just raw ingredients but scientific evidence for your product claims.
It’s all about safety first. Always wear eye protection while working with powder. Eye Contact: If contact is made, flush thoroughly and seek medical advice. If contact with skin occurs, wash with soap and water.

Q:What is the exact difference between total polyphenols, catechins, and EGCG?
A:Among plant polyphenols, EGCG from the catechin subclass offers the highest clinical value for metabolism and calorie expenditure. However, theaflavins represent an oxidized, more stable evolution of catechins with enhanced lipid-lowering pathways. Always specify theaflavin percentages rather than relying solely on total polyphenol content for functional efficacy.
Q:Is the product guaranteed to match samples?
A:Absolutely. We guarantee manufactured batches are identical to your confirmed samples. Each production run undergoes strict pre-shipment testing compliant with Chinese, European, or US Pharmacopoeia requirements. Certificates of Analysis accompany every order.
Q:Does this extract contain caffeine?
A:Natural green tea sources contain 2-10% caffeine. We offer customized low-caffeine or decaffeinated solutions based on your formulation needs—critical for evening-use supplements or caffeine-sensitive consumer segments.
