Bulk Standardized Valerian Root Extract Powder Supplier (0.4% - 0.8% Valerenic Acids) | Low-Odor & Water-Soluble Grades | Factory-Direct Botanical Extract Manufacturer
Valerian root is widely recognized as a premier natural botanical for promoting sleep quality, mitigating anxiety, and supporting central nervous system relaxation. However, traditional raw valerian powders present severe industrial manufacturing hurdles: an pungent, pungent odor, high moisture absorption, poor water solubility, and volatile batch-to-batch active marker concentrations.
By leveraging high-efficiency continuous dynamic countercurrent extraction, molecular sensory de-odorization, and micro-particle fluidbed drying technology, our factory solves these pain points. We deliver **Low-Odor Valerian Extract Powders**, **Cold-Water Dispersible (CWD) Instant Drinks Grades**, and high-density direct-compression grades with full European Pharmacopoeia (EP) and USP monograph compliance.

Frequently Asked Procurement & Formulation Technical Questions (FAQ)
We standardize **Total Valerenic Acids** (sum of valerenic acid, acetoxyvalerenic acid, and hydroxyvalerenic acid) via HPLC testing. Our mainstream export specifications are **0.4% HPLC** and **0.8% HPLC**, which strictly adhere to European Pharmacopoeia (EP) and United States Pharmacopeia (USP) monographs.
Raw valerian root naturally contains volatile Isovaleric acid, which causes a strong pungent odor. Our factory employs a low-heat vacuum molecular de-odorization step during concentration. This significantly reduces volatile pungent smells while preserving key thermolabile active valerenic acids.
Yes! Standard valerian powder has low solubility, but we produce a specialized **Cold-Water Dispersible (CWD) Instant Grade**. It dissolves completely clear in cold water without precipitation or cloudiness, making it ideal for liquid sleep shots, syrups, and beverage premixes.
Our standard MOQ is **25kg (1 fiber drum)**. For product testing and R&D pilot runs, we provide 1kg or 5kg sample foil pouches. Drums are double-lined with food-grade PE bags and an outer heat-sealed aluminum barrier bag to protect against moisture and odor leakages.
All raw roots are harvested from controlled GAP agricultural bases. Every production lot undergoes GC-MS/MS multi-pesticide screening complying with **EU Regulation EC 396/2005** and **EP 2.8.13**. Heavy metals (Pb, As, Cd, Hg) are strictly monitored via ICP-MS to comply with California Proposition 65 and European limits.
Yes, as a direct manufacturer, we offer custom mesh sizing (80 to 200 mesh), direct-compression (DC) dust-free granules for high-speed tablet presses, and custom dry-blending with companion botanical extracts like Lemon Balm, Hops, Chamomile, or 5-HTP.
