French Maritime Pine Tree Bark Extract Powder

French Maritime Pine Bark Extract Powder, the main active ingredient is proanthocyanidins (OPCs), extracted from the bark of pine trees grown on the southwest coast of France. Its powerful bioactive ingredients include oligomeric proanthocyanidins (OPCs), phenolic acids and flavonoids, which fight free radicals and improve skin elasticity. Our product is standardized to 65-75% proanthocyanidins.The extract is widely recognized in dietary supplements, skin care products and functional foods for its anti-aging, vascular support and immune-boosting effects. Brands such as Life Extension, LAC and California Gold Nutrition offer capsule products, but high-quality powdered products are still underutilized, especially in custom formulations.

We only use wild bark from trees over 30 years old to ensure the highest OPC concentration (unlike synthetic or diluted alternatives). Our products are third-party tested for heavy metals, pesticides and microorganisms and meet cGMP and ISO standards. Compared to typical suppliers, we offer custom blends (e.g., combined with vitamin C for enhanced absorption, or with probiotics for synergistic gut health). We also offer water-soluble and microencapsulated options for a variety of applications (powders, serums, capsules). Bulk pricing with no minimum order quantity (MOQ) is ideal for startups and established brands alike.

Why choose our French Maritime Pine Bark Extract Powder?

1. Higher Bioactive Content

Thanks to our low-temperature ethanol extraction process, our extracts are standardized to 70-95% OPCs, effectively preserving heat-sensitive antioxidants that are easily degraded during high-temperature processing. Third-party lab testing confirms that our ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) values are 20% higher than mass-produced alternatives.

2. Exclusively Wild Harvested

Unlike suppliers who use young trees or plantation pine trees, our bark comes only from pine trees over 30 years old in the forests of the Landes department of France, where soil and climate conditions maximize OPC content. No fillers, no synthetic OPCs, only 100% pure, solvent-free extracts.

3. OEM service provides customized solutions for your brand

20 years of experience in nutraceutical R&D enables us to customize formulations to your specific needs:

Water-soluble OPCs for beverages and effervescent tablets

Microencapsulated OPCs for improved stability in gummies and functional foods

Synergistic blends (e.g. blending with vitamin C to increase bioavailability by 40%*)

No minimum order quantity limit - perfect for startups testing the market or large-scale production.
