Source & Traceability
Raw Material Origin:
Our pharmaceutical-grade Organic Horse Chestnut Extract comes from seeds grown on certified organic farms in Germany, France, and the Balkans.These areas have the right climate for the plant to build up a good amount of aescin.
Quality Grading:
· Pharmaceutical Grade: Suitable for medical use, sourced from Europe and meets strict limits on pesticides and heavy metals
· Cosmetic Grade: Ideal for cosmetic products; grown under regulated conditions with better microbial testing
· Standard Grade: Affordable home-produced version for common health products
If you ask, we can give you organic documents and certificates of origin for each batch.Our method for tracking products follows EU EC396 and EU 2023/915 rules, which let us keep track of them from the time they are picked to the time they are packed.

Solubility & Stability Profile
Solubility Characteristics:
· Easily soluble in propylene glycol, methanol, ethanol (30–50%), and hot water
· It dissolves somewhat in cold water.
· Emulsifiers are needed for oil-phase formulations since it is insoluble in vegetable oils.
· In aqueous systems, 200-mesh ultrafine powder enhances dispersion.
Stability Parameters:
· Thermal Stability: Saponin degrades with extended exposure over 95°C; integrity is maintained up to 85°C.
· pH Stability: Avoid extremely acidic or alkaline settings; the ideal pH range is 4.0-7.2.
· Light Sensitivity: Aqueous solutions need to be stored in light-protected containers to avoid oxidation, whereas dry powder is stable.
· Moisture: High-purity grades benefit from desiccant packing; somewhat hygroscopic
Because of these traits, the extract can be used in many different types of products, but it's important to pay close attention to how it's stored.

Manufacturing Process
1.Raw material inspection: Remove damaged or moldy seeds, verify origin certificates, and conduct pesticide screening and visual inspection.
2.Drying and grinding: Dry at low temperature (50–60°C) to moisture ≤10%, grind to 20 mesh, and control moisture content and particle uniformity.
3.Water‑alcohol extraction: Use 30–50% ethanol with a solid‑to‑liquid ratio of 1:8–1:10 at 65–75°C for 2–3 cycles, strictly controlling temperature and extraction time.
4.Multi‑stage filtration: Remove seed coat residues, colloids, and fine particles to ensure liquid clarity.
5.Vacuum concentration: Concentrate under low temperature (≤70°C) and recover ethanol while preserving saponin components.
6.Resin purification: Enrich aescin to the target content using macroporous resin, and verify purity by HPLC.
7.Spray drying: Convert the liquid extract into fine powder, controlling particle size and bulk density.
8.Quality testing: Test for heavy metals, microbiology, and assay content, and issue a Certificate of Analysis (COA).
9.Packaging: Use double‑layer moisture‑proof bags and light‑protected drums, and check seal integrity.

Quality Assurance
Your trust in our Organic Horse Chestnut Extract originates from thorough quality control:
Our certification systems indicate our commitment to international standards, including ISO9001, HALAL, KOSHER, cGMP, NOP organic, and EOS organic compliance.
Microbiological testing, ICP-MS for heavy metal identification, and HPLC for aescin quantification are all performed in-house. We verified that esculin levels are within safety limits (<0.5%).
Third-Party Verification: Independent laboratories provide regular audits of contaminant profiles and pesticide residues (500+ chemical screening).
Each batch includes a complete Certificate of Analysis, provenance certificates, and, if applicable, organic papers. You can track your order from farm to warehouse using our traceability system.
We do rigorous testing so that you may confidently formulate.

FAQ
Q: Can you provide European origin certificates for pharmaceutical applications?
A: Yes. When necessary, we obtain our pharmaceutical-grade materials from recognized European farms that have full origin documentation and ECOCERT/USDA organic certifications.
Q: What's the difference between 20% and 40% aescin extracts?
A: The 20% version employs simple extraction, whereas the 40% version is further purified using macroporous resin to eliminate polysaccharides and concentrate saponins for increased efficacy.
Q: Does the extract dissolve in cosmetic lotions?
A: It dissolves somewhat in cold water. Stability is increased by using 200-mesh powder. Before adding it to your recipe, dissolve it in warm water or add propylene glycol for improved dispersion.
Q: Is long-term bulk supply guaranteed?
A: Definitely. For frequent large-volume orders, we may tailor the particle size and aescin concentration (20–98%) to your requirements. We also keep regular inventories.
Q: How do you ensure safety from toxic esculin?
A: Testing confirms that our extraction procedure eliminates esculin (<0.5% or undetectable). This crucial safety metric is recorded in every COA.
