Release time :2020-07-20 Number of hits:

In recent years, with the increasing recognition of "return to nature" and "green consumption", natural health care products have been highly praised in the world, and traditional drugs have also received special attention and recognition. As the main raw materials of food, health care products, cosmetics and plant medicine products, plant extract has become a star in the natural medicine and health care products market, showing a strong growth momentum in the global market.
 
China's plant extract industry exports account for more than 80% of the total industry income, and export is the main way to promote the development of the industry. But from another perspective, there are few big brands of Chinese health food in the prosperity of global health food. Industry insiders also pointed out that many foreign dietary supplements giants have advantages in technology and patents, and can take the lead in extraction and separation process, product mechanism and safety evaluation, which is just the main disadvantage of domestic enterprises. On the other hand, due to the lack of relevant certification, the production of plant extracts is relatively chaotic and the advantages and disadvantages can not be distinguished. The record management of plant extract raw materials came into being.
 
Record process of plant extract raw materials
 
The year 2015 is a year of reform for China's plant extract industry, and the health food filing system adopted by the new food safety law is also considered as one of the signs of great development of the industry. In the same year, the "health food registration and filing management measures" was promulgated, which clearly stipulated that CFDA stipulated that Chinese herbal extracts were prohibited from entrusted processing, and plant extraction and filing became a new trend of industry development.
 
In October 2016, the implementation regulations of the food safety law of the people's Republic of China (Revised Draft for approval) pointed out that "producers engaged in the production and processing of health food premix, extract and other products and external sales shall be included in the health food production license management". It means that the extract is included in the production license management of health food.
 
At the end of 2016, CFDA issued the detailed rules for the review of health food production license, further standardizing the specific rules for the incorporation of plant extracts into the production of health food.
 
4.3.5 for the production license of raw material extract of health food, the name of the raw material extract shall be marked in the variety item, and the name, registration number or record number of the health food shall be indicated in the remark column; for the production license of compound nutrients, the vitamin or mineral premix shall be marked in the variety detail item, and the name, registration number or registration number of the health food shall be indicated in the remark column Record number and other information.
 
2.1.5 when applying for the production license of health food raw material extract and compound nutrients, the applicant shall submit the health food registration certificate or filing certificate, as well as the production process and quality standard of the raw material extract specified in the registration certificate or filing certificate, and the product formula, production process and quality standard of the compound nutrient specified in the registration certificate or filing certificate Material Science.
 
This indicates that animal and plant extracts and vitamin and mineral premix must be used in registered or registered health food. When registering or filing such products, enterprises need to confirm the standards, technology and other technical contents with the supplier. After the product application is successful, the supplier can handle or increase the production license of the extract or vitamin and mineral premix.
 
However, it is also stipulated in the detailed rules that those who are only engaged in the extraction of raw materials or mixed processing of raw materials of health food produced by the enterprise shall apply for the production license of health food products, and it is not necessary to apply for the production license of raw material extract or compound nutrients separately. It shows that if enterprises produce their own health food, they can extract animals and plants or process vitamin and mineral premix by themselves.
 
Record process of plant extracts as health food raw materials
 
After the policy of standardized management of plant extracts was issued, many enterprises took active actions. General manager Lin, marketing director of Xi'an Tianyi Biotechnology Co., Ltd., said that at present, China's plant extract export enterprises have enough space for transformation and upgrading, the huge domestic market space for health products, and the multi-level integration of multiple channels of domestic and foreign trade markets will promote the continuous high-speed growth of plant extract industry. The company pays attention to the international market, at the same time, increases the domestic market development. In addition to halal, kosher, ISO22000, cGMP, organic certification, non transgenic certification, etc., the company has also obtained food and health products production license (SC certificate), and has been registered with Chinese medicine extract manufacturers. Xi'an Tianyi is also one of the earliest manufacturers to record plant extracts in China. President Lin also introduced the filing process of plant extracts as health food raw materials
 
The health food market has begun to recover under the dual track system in China, and China's big health market has changed to be more efficient and more specialized. The record of plant extract products has standardized the development of health food in China. So, the question is, how to stand out among the numerous recorded products? Production enterprises need to constantly explore the needs of users for natural functional raw materials. How can enterprises keep pace with the trend and take advantage of it? These questions can be found in the innovation forum of zhitiqiao in May.
