china green leaf stevia extract

Hunan Huacheng Biotech operates a 12,000-m² processing site in Hunan Province, where stevia leaves are milled, extracted, purified, and dried under one roof. This full-chain control is rare among budget-tier suppliers—many resell intermediates. By keeping everything in-house, we track each batch from farm to final powder, cutting lead times and reducing the risk of contamination. Our China green leaf stevia extract is tested for compliance with USP, EP, and JP monographs. The plant holds active certifications: FDA-registered facility, HACCP for food safety hazards, GMP for manufacturing consistency, CE for EU market access, and BRC Global Standard for food. These aren't just badges; they require annual audits and continuous improvement. We also run third-party testing on heavy metals, pesticides, and microbial limits—CoAs are available before you commit. For product developers, the real question is often about solubility and taste profile. Our standard extracts are water-soluble, with typical composition: stevioside 40-50%, rebaudioside A 30-40%, rebaudioside C 5-8%. This mix produces a sweetness 200-300 times sugar, with a slight licorice note in high concentrations. If you need a cleaner taste, we offer RA95 and enzymatically modified versions, but those carry a premium. The budget advantage of our green leaf extract is that it uses whole leaf extraction without selective reb A isolation, so it's naturally more affordable. Application-wise, it works in beverages, baked goods, dairy, and sauces. pH stability is wide, from 2 to 9, and heat stable up to 200°C for typical processing. Inventory is kept at 20 metric tons, with monthly capacity of 50 metric tons scalable within two months. We ship in 25-kg fiber drums with double PE liners, or custom packaging by agreement. For new clients, we recommend trying a 500-gram sample first. Our sales team is technical—they can jump on a call to discuss your formulation challenges and suggest the right grade. No fluffy marketing, just engineering details and batch data.
