Consistent quality, reliable supply, and a partner who understands your formulation needs. We are Fufeng Snotra Bio-Tech Co., Ltd. – 18 years in botanical extraction, from our own cultivation bases to our GMP-compliant manufacturing facilities. Our Natural Plant Extract portfolio includes Pygeum Africanum Extract (Pygeum africanum L. / Prunus africana), also known as African Prunus Bark Extract, 非洲臀果木提取物, 非洲刺李提取物, or臀果木提取物. Derived from the dried bark of this evergreen tree native to the highlands of Central and East Africa (at altitudes of 1,000–2,500 meters) — primarily sourced from Cameroon, Ghana, Kenya, and Tanzania — this extract delivers a rich profile of natural bioactive compounds including β-sitosterol (β-谷甾醇), pentacyclic triterpenoids (熊果酸, 齐墩果酸), ferulic acid esters, and fatty acids. It is widely used in dietary supplements, functional beverages, and wellness formulations for its prostate health support, urinary tract health, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties. We offer ratios from 10:1 to 30:1, phytosterol content from 2.5% to 13%, custom granulation, and private-label packaging – exactly what your formulation requires.

Background: A North American nutraceutical brand was developing a natural prostate health and urinary support supplement line. They wanted a clinically-recognized botanical ingredient with standardized phytosterol content to differentiate their products in the competitive men's health market.
Challenge: Their previous supplier could not provide consistent batch quality – β-sitosterol and total phytosterol content varied significantly between lots, and documentation did not meet US FDA requirements for Dietary supplement ingredients.
Solution: We supplied Pygeum Africanum Extract standardized to 10:1 with Phytosterols 2.5% by GC/HPLC, with full COA documentation including heavy metals (≤10 mg/kg), microbiology (total plate count ≤1000 CFU/g), and purity testing. We provided custom 80-mesh granulation for better flow in their encapsulation equipment and private-label packaging in 5 kg and 25 kg sizes.
Result: The brand successfully launched their prostate health supplement across 15+ North American retail channels. Batch consistency has been maintained at ±2% variance across 20+ production lots. Their procurement lead time reduced by 25%, and they have since added a functional beverage SKU featuring our Pygeum Africanum Extract.
Pygeum Africanum Extract (derived from the bark of Prunus africana) and Saw Palmetto Extract (derived from the berries of Serenoa repens) are both popular for prostate health support but have different origins and mechanisms. Pygeum is rich in phytosterols (β-sitosterol) and pentacyclic triterpenoids, traditionally used in Africa for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and urinary health. Saw Palmetto is rich in fatty acids and sterols and works through different pathways. They are often used together in prostate health formulations.
Our facility holds ISO9001, ISO22000, HACCP, HALAL, and Kosher certifications – these are factory-level quality management systems. For each batch of Pygeum Africanum Extract, we provide a Certificate of Analysis (COA) covering botanical identification (TLC), phytosterol assay (GC/HPLC), moisture (≤5.0-6.0%), ash (≤5.0%), particle size (80 mesh), heavy metals (≤10 mg/kg), and microbiology (total plate count ≤1000 CFU/g, yeast & mold ≤100 CFU/g, E. coli and Salmonella negative). Our products are produced using advanced spray drying technology with no artificial additives, colors, or preservatives. If you need product-specific third-party certifications (organic) or additional tests, please contact us – we can arrange these based on your order volume and target market requirements.
Typical starting points based on industry practice and clinical research:
• Dietary supplements (capsules/tablets): formulate to deliver target phytosterol content
• Solid beverages / drink mixes: 5%
• Liquid beverages: 5%
• Functional foods / snack foods: 3-5%
• Men's health / prostate wellness products: 5-10%
We recommend working with your R&D team to determine optimal levels for your specific formulation and target market. We provide formulation guidance and technical support upon request.
