Product Description
Reliable Chamomile Flower Extract Manufacturer & Bulk Supplier
Greenherb operates a certified processing facility specializing in Chamomile Flower Extract, a flavonoid-standardized botanical ingredient made from the dried flower heads of Matricaria chamomilla through controlled extraction and spray drying. Our production system centers on apigenin-7-glucoside verification, species identity, and allergen documentation. Supplement, beverage, and cosmetic brands receive a defined specification for evening calm and comfort formulations.
Why Choose Greenherb Chamomile Flower Extract
- Apigenin-7-Glucoside Verification — Each batch is measured by HPLC for apigenin-7-glucoside, the main flavonoid marker of chamomile flowers. The result appears on the COA. Defined loading supports consistent product performance.
- Species Authentication — German chamomile and Roman chamomile are different plants with different profiles. HPLC fingerprinting confirms Matricaria chamomilla on every incoming lot.
- Flower-Head Specification — Only dried flower heads are used. Stems and leaves are removed at intake. Flower quality is graded by color and fragment size.
- Glycoside-Friendly Extraction — Apigenin glycosides are sensitive to harsh conditions. We use mild water-ethanol extraction and low-temperature concentration to protect them.
- Allergen Documentation — Chamomile belongs to the Asteraceae family. Our documentation states the botanical family so buyers can complete allergen reviews.
- Heavy Metal and Pesticide Compliance — Every lot undergoes ICP-MS screening and GC/LC-MS pesticide analysis against EU and US thresholds.

What Is Chamomile Flower Extract
Two Fractions in One Flower
Chamomile flower heads carry two main groups of compounds. Flavonoids, led by apigenin and its glucosides, are water-soluble. The essential oil, which includes bisabolol and chamazulene, is volatile and oily. An aqueous-alcohol extract captures mainly the flavonoid fraction. This makes apigenin-7-glucoside the most practical marker for standardization.
Extract vs. Chamomile Flower Powder
Chamomile flower powder is the dried flower, milled. Its flavonoid content varies with harvest and storage, and it leaves visible particles in drinks. Chamomile Flower Extract concentrates the flavonoids to a stated level and dissolves more easily. It suits capsules, tablets, and clear beverages where plant fragments are unwanted.
Production Process
Incoming flower heads are authenticated by botanical identity checks and HPLC fingerprinting. Apigenin-7-glucoside content, moisture, heavy metals, and microbiological status are screened before processing.
- Flower Selection and Cleaning — Flower heads are sorted, and stems and leaf fragments are removed.
- Size Reduction — Flowers are milled to a defined particle size for even solvent contact.
- Mild Water-Ethanol Extraction — Flavonoids are extracted under controlled temperature and time to protect glycosides.
- Filtration and Concentration — Extract is filtered and concentrated under vacuum at low temperature.
- Standardization and Spray Drying — HPLC confirms apigenin-7-glucoside level. The concentrate is spray dried with food-grade carrier.
- Quality Release and Packaging — Each lot is tested for marker content, moisture, heavy metals, pesticides, and microbiology. Powder is sealed in PE inner bags with desiccants inside light-proof drums.
