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 Loofah Extract (Luffa cylindrica (L.) Roem. / Retinervus Luffae Fructus), also known as Loofah Powder,丝瓜络提取物, or丝瓜络粉[reference:41][reference:42]. Derived from the vascular bundle of the mature fruit of the loofah plant — a climbing annual vine widely cultivated across China — this extract delivers a rich profile of natural bioactive compounds including cellulose, xylan (木聚糖), mannan (甘露聚糖), galactan (半乳聚糖), lignin (木质素), and triterpenoid saponins (lycyoside A, F, J, K, L, M)[reference:43][reference:44][reference:45]. It is widely used in food additives, functional beverages, dietary supplements, cosmetic formulations, and industrial applications for its natural fiber content, water solubility, and plant-based functional properties[reference:46]. We offer ratios from 10:1 to 50:1, custom granulation, and private-label packaging – exactly what your formulation requires[reference:47][reference:48].

Background: A North American functional beverage brand was developing a clean-label dietary fiber drink line. They wanted a plant-based ingredient with natural fiber content and excellent water solubility to differentiate their products in the competitive wellness market.
Challenge: Their previous supplier could not provide consistent batch quality – polysaccharide and fiber content varied significantly between lots, and the powder had poor solubility in their beverage applications.
Solution: We supplied Loofah Extract standardized to 10:1 with full COA documentation including TLC/UV assay, moisture (≤6.0%), particle size (80-100 mesh), heavy metals (<10 ppm), and microbiology (total plate count <1000 CFU/g). We provided custom 100-mesh granulation for better dispersion in their mixing equipment and private-label packaging in 5 kg and 25 kg sizes.
Result: The brand successfully launched their dietary fiber beverage across 15+ North American retail channels. Batch consistency has been maintained at ±3% variance across 20+ production lots. Their procurement lead time reduced by 25%, and they have since added a cosmetic SKU featuring our Loofah Extract.
Loofah Extract is a concentrated powder produced through extraction and spray drying processes at specific ratios (10:1, 20:1, etc.), providing higher concentration of active compounds per gram. Loofah Powder typically refers to simply dried and ground loofah fiber with no concentration ratio[reference:127]. Our Loofah Extract offers higher bioactive density per gram, making it more cost-effective for supplement, beverage, and food formulations.
Our facility holds ISO9001, ISO22000, HACCP, HALAL, and Kosher certifications – these are factory-level quality management systems[reference:128]. For each batch of Loofah Extract, we provide a Certificate of Analysis (COA) covering botanical identification, polysaccharide/fiber assay (TLC/UV), moisture (≤6.0%), particle size (80-100 mesh), heavy metals (total <10 ppm, As≤2 ppm, Pb≤1 ppm, Cd≤0.5 ppm, Hg≤0.5 ppm), and microbiology (total plate count <1000 CFU/g, yeast & mold <100 CFU/g, E. coli and Salmonella negative)[reference:129]. Our products are produced using advanced spray drying technology with no artificial additives, colors, or preservatives[reference:130]. We also provide factory inspection reports and third-party test reports upon request[reference:131]. 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:
• Food additives / functional foods: 3-5%
• Solid beverages / drink mixes: 5%
• Liquid beverages: 5%
• Dietary supplements (capsules/tablets): as per formulation requirements
• Skincare / cosmetic formulations: 1%-5%[reference:132]
• Industrial applications: as per specific requirements
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.
