Raw Material Natural Characteristics

Vitis vinifera is a woody vine whose fruit seeds naturally accumulate a range of plant substances during growth. Our whole dried grape seed is collected from fully mature grape berries, then gently dried and sorted to keep the natural seed structure and original mild nutty flavour. With stable physical properties and flexible application options, this botanical raw material fits the global market trend for natural, plant-based and clean-label food ingredients.

• Natural Seed Source: Harvested from mature grape fruit of Vitis vinifera, sourced from stable planting areas, without mixing with other plant seeds.

• Mild Drying Process: Low-temperature drying treatment reduces moisture while limiting heat impact, helping maintain the natural aroma and texture of grape seed.

• Consistent Grading Standard: Unified sorting and size classification ensure similar seed dimensions and appearance between batches, convenient for end product formulation and packaging design.

• Wide Application Flexibility: Whole seeds can be used directly or processed further, compatible with many beverage and food systems for different production needs.
