Meng Dongping, secretary of the Party Committee of China Chamber of Commerce for Import and Export of Medicines and Health Products, said in his opening speech that China, as a big producer of plant extracts, is also the largest exporter of raw materials for natural health products in the world at present. After years of accumulation, the industry is growing, and the position and role of local enterprises in international trade and division of labor are increasingly prominent, and foreign trade exports have maintained a relatively high growth for ten years.
At present, our achievements are enormous.
According to the data of China Chamber of Commerce for Import and Export of Medicines and Health Products, in 2023, China's export of plant extracts was 23.88 billion yuan, ranking first in the world with a global market share of over 20%. At present, there are about 30,000 kinds of plants in China, which is one of the countries with the richest plant resources and the most complete system in the world, and the industrial development prospect is broad. Among them, ginger extract, garlic extract, milk thistle extract, Ginkgo biloba extract and Lycium barbarum extract are favored by overseas markets.
In 2023, the largest export markets of plant extracts in China were Hong Kong, the United States and Japan. The first quarter of 2024 is the United States, India and Japan. Leading enterprises of plant extracts in China include Chenguang Bio, Rhine Bio, Chongqing Jiaowang, etc. Lutein from Chenguang Bio, stevia extract from Rhine Bio, bromelain from Chongqing Jiaowang and other products are all world-renowned products.
This growth is mainly due to the excellent quality of our products and the innovation of enterprises. The reporter learned that a country producing plant extracts must meet two conditions: first, it has a complete system, and second, it is a resource-rich country. China's leading enterprises have competitive advantages. The products of domestic plant extracts leading enterprises, such as Chenguang Bio, Rheinland Bio and Chongqing Jiaowang, have occupied a place in the domestic and international markets after decades of innovative research and development.
At present, the challenges are also enormous
The big health industry, including plant extracts, is a sunrise industry that continues to develop globally, but it is also facing new challenges. Raw material quality and safety, international trade rules, international standard procedures, market product positioning, cutting-edge technology application, market development trend, etc. are all hot topics that practitioners in the big health industry, especially in the plant extract industry, need to pay close attention to.
Traditional Chinese medicine is a treasure of ancient science in China. Many products with the same origin of medicine and food can be excavated as global natural health products through research and development, and there is also a good market.
"In the past 30 years, China's plant extract products have followed the US and European and American markets, but they cannot lead the development of the industry. In the future, through research and development of traditional Chinese medicine products, there may be a breakthrough. " Yu Zhibin believes.
"Quality is a topic that cannot be discussed and discussed." Gao Wei, deputy general manager of Chenguang Biotechnology Group, said that on the one hand, the company strictly controls the quality of products; On the other hand, huge investment is made in innovative research and development every year. It is reported that the sales of lutein, paprika red pigment and other products produced by Chenguang Biological ranked first in the world. Lutein is an extract of Tagetes erecta, which has the function of relieving visual fatigue.
Recently, natural health food quality and safety incidents have occurred frequently at home and abroad, and the importance of raw material quality control has become increasingly prominent. As the largest producer, supplier and exporter of raw materials for health products in the world, the quality control of plant extracts is particularly critical. "It is an inevitable trend to further improve the quality of our products and manage the whole process of plant extracts." Yu Zhibin, director of the Chinese Medicine Department of China Chamber of Commerce for Import and Export of Medicines and Health Products, revealed that the Chamber of Commerce and China National Institute of Standardization jointly led the compilation of Good Manufacturing Practices for Plant Extracts (GEP) to guide the high-quality development of enterprises in the plant extraction industry. At present, the code is soliciting opinions from industry professionals and enterprises.
Shaanxi Province is the largest province in China's plant extract industry
Shaanxi province is the largest province in China's plant extract industry, with thousands of planting and extracting enterprises, accounting for about one-third of the industry, and the output value exceeds 10 billion yuan.
"The next step of Shaanxi's plant extraction industry needs to strictly control product quality, increase the development of the application end of plant extraction products, pay attention to the accumulation of clinical use data, and continuously increase the development of the" Belt and Road "to build markets such as the country, Southeast Asia, Central Asia and Africa." Sun Jinghu, deputy director of the Shaanxi Provincial Department of Commerce, pointed out that Shaanxi's planting industry strives to extend to the high end of the industrial chain and value chain, relying on higher additional products to continuously gain competitive advantages in the international market, and there is still much room for improvement in the future.
