Raw Material Natural Characteristics

Sambucus nigra is a woody shrub widely grown in temperate regions. Ripe elderberry fruits naturally accumulate anthocyanin pigments and a range of fruit components during ripening. Our elderberry fruit powder uses ripe berries as starting material, processed by mild low-temperature treatment and spray drying to retain the natural colour and fruit profile of elderberries. This plant-derived ingredient shows stable physical properties and flexible application options, matching the global market trend for natural, plant-based and clean-label food ingredients.

• Natural Plant Source: Harvested from ripe elderberries (Sambucus nigra), sourced from stable planting bases, without mixing with stems, unripe berries or foreign impurities.

• Mild Low-Temp Processing: Controlled low-temperature extraction and drying reduce heat impact, helping preserve natural colour, aroma and fruit components.

• Consistent Quality Standard: Unified sorting and powder grading ensure consistent colour and fineness between batches, convenient for end-product formulation and packaging design.

• Wide Application Flexibility: Fine powder form can be directly mixed into powder blends or dissolved in liquids, compatible with many beverage and food production systems.
