Herbal Extract Manufacturers & Factories for the Ireland Market

Every shipment destined for Irish ports is accompanied by a full release dossier: Batch-specific Certificate of Analysis (COA) specifying validated HPLC/UV assays, 16-point Safety Data Sheet (SDS/REACH compliant), Technical Specification Sheet, Non-GMO Certification, Allergen Statement, BSE/TSE-Free Declaration, and third-party ISO/IEC 17025 accredited test reports verifying absence of Ethylene Oxide (EtO), PAHs, and heavy metals per EC 2023/915.

The FSAI maintains strict monitoring over botanical substances in food supplements, cross-referencing European Commission Novel Food Catalogues and national permitted herb lists. Le-Nutra tracks novel food status (Regulation EU 2015/2283) for all extracts, ensuring standard non-novel commercialization history or supplying necessary compositional history and dossier support for novel botanical filings.

For express air cargo and urgent R&D trial batches, transit takes 4 to 7 business days directly to Dublin Airport (DUB) or Shannon Airport (SNN) via international carriers. For bulk commercial sea freight (FCL/LCL), transit takes approximately 28 to 35 calendar days through major European transshipment gateways (Rotterdam, Antwerp, or Southampton) directly to Dublin Port or the Port of Cork, handled under DDP or CIF terms.

Ethylene oxide is strictly prohibited across European supply chains. Le-Nutra relies exclusively on clean non-thermal physical decontamination methods, including superheated dry steam sterilization and high-vacuum microbial filtration. We test every production campaign via GC-MS headspace analysis with a limit of quantification (LOQ) of 0.01 mg/kg, ensuring zero risk of EU border rejection.

Yes. High-speed encapsulation equipment used in modern Irish CMO factories requires precise bulk density, low hygroscopicity, and uniform granulation. We offer customized micro-milling from 80 mesh up to 200 mesh superfine powder, as well as dust-free dry roller compaction and DC-grade (Direct Compression) granules designed to maximize machine operating speeds.

Standard catalog botanical items maintain an accessible MOQ of 1 kg to 25 kg (one standard fiber drum) to support pilot formulation runs and scale-up clinical evaluations in Ireland. For custom contract synthesis, bespoke solvent extractions, or tailored marker-compound concentrations, our R&D batch MOQ starts at 50 kg to 100 kg.

Our extraction methodologies strictly avoid animal-derived processing aids, gelatin fining agents, or synthetic additives. We provide 100% plant-origin documentation, Vegan Society compliance declarations, and carrier-free botanical extracts (maltodextrin-free options available upon request), enabling Irish brands to claim 100% clean-label consumer transparency.

Yes. We provide 50 g to 200 g pre-shipment qualification samples alongside corresponding batch-specific COAs. This enables your internal analytical chemistry laboratory or third-party contract facilities in Ireland (such as Eurofins Ireland or ALS Life Sciences) to conduct HPLC correlation checks and microbiological screening prior to commercial dispatch.

We utilize clean water and hydro-ethanolic extraction processes followed by specialized resin macro-porous adsorption and ion-exchange filtration. This removes inorganic ions and environmental contaminants from raw botanical feedstocks, guaranteeing Lead (< 1.0 ppm), Cadmium (< 0.5 ppm), Mercury (< 0.1 ppm), and Arsenic (< 1.0 ppm)—well below EU maximum residue limits.

Recognizing that agricultural fluctuations can disrupt finished product margins, Le-Nutra offers 6-month to 12-month fixed-price annual procurement contracts. By leveraging our massive 3,000 MT capacity and dedicated inventory reserves in Xi'an, we insulate Irish manufacturing partners from market spot-price volatility.
