Full OEM/ODM contract manufacturing, custom mesh size, blend preparation, and private label support.
The industrial value of licorice root lies in its rich array of triterpenoid saponins and polyphenolic flavonoids. OEM/ODM buyers must select specific standardization levels tailored to their final delivery matrix:
Known in cosmetic chemistry as "Whitening Gold," Glabridin is an isoflavonoid specific to Glycyrrhiza glabra L.. It inhibits tyrosinase activity (IC50 value significantly lower than hydroquinone) without cytotoxic effects. OEM applications include high-performance anti-hyperpigmentation serums and night creams.
A pentacyclic triterpenoid saponin delivering strong anti-inflammatory, anti-viral, and hepatoprotective actions. Monoammonium Glycyrrhizinate (MAG) and Dipotassium Glycyrrhizinate (DPG) provide exceptional water solubility, serving as active soothing agents in dermal formulations and natural flavor qualifiers in pharmaceuticals.
Licochalcone A provides powerful antioxidant and anti-acne properties by modulating inflammatory cytokines (TNF-alpha, IL-6). Liquiritin functions as an essential marker compound for traditional herbal preparations and gastrointestinal protective supplements.

China remains the epicenter for high-grade Glycyrrhiza uralensis and Glycyrrhiza glabra harvesting due to optimal geographic and climatic conditions across the Xinjiang and Gansu regions. Debaoyi leverages these natural advantages to build an integrated supply chain that seamlessly connects raw root farming with high-tech separation infrastructure.
By establishing long-term contracts with local GAP-certified wild and cultivated planting bases in Northwest China, we guarantee consistent raw material supplies with naturally high concentrations of baseline glycyrrhizin and flavonoids, insulated from market price volatility.
Our facility operates multi-stage continuous extraction tanks, counter-current extraction units, ultrafiltration membranes, and industrial HPLC preparative columns capable of isolating fragile molecules without thermal degradation.
We provide full contract manufacturing services including spray drying, custom particle micronization (mesh sizes 80 to 200), liquid tincture compounding, softgel/capsule filling, and customer-tailored packaging options.
International procurement requires strict compliance with global safety frameworks. Debaoyi's Quality Assurance protocols ensure every batch meets or exceeds international pharmacopeial mandates (USP, EP, JP, ChP).
Every batch undergoes ICP-MS screening to ensure Lead (< 1 ppm), Arsenic (< 1 ppm), Cadmium (< 0.5 ppm), and Mercury (< 0.1 ppm) levels. GC-MS/MS testing screens for over 400 pesticide residues to guarantee compliance with European Union regulations.
Equipped with modern cleanroom packaging areas, our products pass total plate count (< 1000 cfu/g), yeast & mold (< 100 cfu/g), and remain completely free of E. coli, Salmonella, and Staphylococcus aureus. Solvent residues (Ethanol/Ethyl Acetate) are strictly controlled below 50 ppm.
We issue complete technical dossier support for client registration, including Certificate of Analysis (COA), Safety Data Sheets (SDS/MSDS), Flowchart of Manufacturing, BSE/TSE Free Statements, Non-GMO Certification, Halal, Kosher, and ISO22000 certificates.
We value your needs, especially your innovative applications in natural ingredients. If there’s something specific you are looking for, we’ll find you the best solution.
The active nutritional ingredients: polyphenols, flavonoids, saponins.
Utilized extensively in dietary supplements formulated for gastrointestinal mucosal health, adrenal fatigue support, liver detoxification blends, and natural respiratory comfort capsules.
As natural additives to enhance the ability of antioxidant and flavors/colorants.
Glycyrrhizin serves as an intense natural zero-calorie sweetening agent (30-50 times sweeter than sucrose) with prolonged sweetness curves, perfect for masking bitterness in functional beverages, confectionery, and herbal teas.
Ingredients rich in antioxidants, foaming, hydration of the skin, whitening, etc.
Glabridin and Dipotassium Glycyrrhizinate act as premium bioactive actives in luxury skincare formulas designed to soothe redness, clear hyperpigmentation, brighten skin tone, and defend against UV-induced oxidative stress.
Answers to common technical questions raised by chemical procurement officers, cosmetic formulators, and supply chain directors.
Glabridin 40% is an enriched plant extract fraction widely chosen for cost-effective cosmetic whitening serums, containing natural botanical carriers that improve lipophilic solubility. Glabridin 90% and 98% are highly purified pharmaceutical-grade isolates used in ultra-premium skincare lines requiring precise active concentration without residual botanical color shades.
Standard Glabridin is fat-soluble. To accommodate water-based facial toners, gels, and sheet masks, Debaoyi manufactures specialized microencapsulated, water-soluble Glabridin (10% and 20% active assay) using nano-emulsification technology, providing transparent water dispersion and enhanced dermal bio-absorption.
Glycyrrhizin can cause sodium retention and hypertension when consumed in high doses over long periods. DGL extract has over 97% of its glycyrrhizin removed while retaining beneficial flavonoids, allowing safe long-term dosage in dietary supplements designed for stomach mucosal integrity and heartburn alleviation.
Our standard catalog extract powders carry an MOQ of 1 kg for sample evaluation and trial production runs. Bulk commercial orders typically start at 25 kg (fiber drum packaging). Standard lead times range between 7 to 12 business days for stock items, and 15 to 20 business days for custom OEM mesh/granulation specifications.
Every shipment is accompanied by a batch-specific COA, SDS, Analytical Method (HPLC), Flowchart, Heavy Metal & Pesticide Test Report (from third-party laboratories like Eurofins or SGS upon request), ISO22000, Kosher, and Halal certificates. We also assist EU buyers with REACH compliance documentation.
We combine large-scale raw material blending from standardized crop bases with automated computer-controlled extraction lines. Every production batch undergoes HPLC finger-print testing against reference standard samples to ensure active compound variations remain under ±2% across batches.
