Lutein and carotenes are highly volatile lipophilic pigments requiring stringent temperature, pressure, and solvent controls. As a certified Custom Lutein Carotene Manufacturer, we implement molecular encapsulation and micro-beadlet technologies to protect against oxidative degradation, ensuring maximum biological activity.
Standard lutein crystalline powders exhibit poor water solubility. Through specialized emulsification and starch-sodium octenyl succinate matrices, we manufacture cold-water-dispersible (CWD) powders and oil suspensions designed specifically for functional beverages, softgels, and hard capsule applications.
Each batch of our custom lutein carotene product undergoes precise High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) validation. We guarantee strict adherence to USP/EP monographs, verifying not only the concentration of Lutein but also managing isomers such as Zeaxanthin and Meso-Zeaxanthin.
Chengdu ChenLv Herb Co.,Ltd. is a high-tech enterprise specializing in the R&D, production, and sales of botanical extracts and natural pharmaceutical ingredients. Committed to providing high-purity, highly active, and premium-quality natural raw materials, the company serves diverse industries, including pharmaceuticals, health supplements, food, and cosmetics.
China represents the world’s largest botanical extraction corridor. By situating our manufacturing plants close to premium Marigold (Tagetes erecta) cultivation zones, we secure stable raw material supply chains while insulating clients against seasonal yield variations.
This structural advantage translates into significant cost efficiencies, allowing us to implement advanced double-crystallization technologies without pricing our clients out of their retail markets. Our extraction protocols minimize industrial residue, ensuring a cleaner product from farm to final formulation.
For large-scale international buyers, purchasing bioactive compounds requires navigating complex regulatory environments. We supply full documentation suites, including Heavy Metal Analysis (ICP-MS), Pesticide Residue Screens (GC-MS/MS), and Residual Solvent Profiles. This thorough documentation streamlines custom clearances and speeds up time-to-market.
Surging demand for natural macular protective agents driven by global screen-time amplification.
Global standard shifts banning artificial coloring agents require transition to natural carotenes.
Modern nutraceutical blends require combination Lutein + Zeaxanthin + Omega-3 compounds.

Staying informed on raw material indexes, botanical supply updates, and global exhibition news.
Recently, the market price of Citrus aurantium raw materials in China has been on the rise, drawing significant attention from the industry. As the new production season (May-June) comes to an end and new supplies gradually enter the market, price fluctuations have become a focal point due to supply and demand dynamics and cost considerations.
As a 'calling card' for leading China's pharmaceutical industry onto the global stage, the 23rd China Pharmaceutical Raw Materials Exhibition (CPHI China 2025) will join hands with the 18th China Pharmaceutical Machinery.
We are pleased to announce our participation in the upcoming 92nd API Conference, showcasing our updated catalog of custom Lutein Carotene products, botanical solvents extraction lines, and standardized plant derivatives.
Key information regarding product specifications, customization processes, and manufacturing capabilities.
We employ double-microencapsulation techniques using food-grade starches and gelatin matrices. This shields active lutein crystal molecules from direct heat, light, and oxidation, ensuring long shelf-life and stability in complex compound formulations.
Every batch undergoes testing via High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) for active ingredient purity. We test for heavy metals (Arsenic, Lead, Cadmium, Mercury via ICP-MS), residual solvents, microbiological counts, and pesticide residues to meet EU and FDA regulatory standards.
Yes. We offer Cold Water Dispersible (CWD) powders (typically standardized at 5% or 10% Lutein), designed for quick dissolution in functional beverage applications without sedimentation or loss of color clarity.
Lead times depend on customization requirements. Standard production runs take 2 to 3 weeks following sample approval and contract finalization. Emergency rush shipments can occasionally be expedited.
