Today, with the rapid development of the global health industry, natural plant extracts, especially Eucommia extracts, have been favored by more and more consumers due to their excellent health functions. With the increasing opening of the global market, especially the US market, the demand for natural health products continues to grow. In order to smoothly enter the US market and ensure the safety and legality of the product, FDA GRAS certification has become an indispensable passport for Eucommia extract.
What is FDA GRAS certification?
FDA (US Food and Drug Administration) GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) certification refers to a food additive or ingredient that has been confirmed to be safe under specific conditions of use after scientific research and expert evaluation. GRAS certification is an official certification of the safety of food, health products and their raw materials in the US market and has legal effect.
For Eucommia extract, obtaining GRAS certification means that the product meets the safety requirements of the US market for food or health products and can be legally sold and enter the US market. Products without GRAS certification cannot legally enter the US market, especially in areas involving food, health products and medicines.
The value of FDA GRAS certification
Obtaining GRAS certification means that Eucommia extract is deemed safe in the U.S. market and meets the strict standards of U.S. food and drug. This not only ensures the legality of the product, but also increases consumer trust in the product. The FDA's comprehensive evaluation of Eucommia extract ensures that its use in food and health products will not pose any risk to consumers' health.
Promote Eucommia extract to enter the U.S. market
The United States is one of the largest health product markets in the world, and consumers have a large demand for natural plant extracts. After obtaining GRAS certification, Eucommia extract will be allowed to enter the U.S. market and be used in a variety of products, such as functional foods, health products, cosmetics, etc. This opens the door to the U.S. market for Zhejiang Eucommia products and helps expand international business.
Improve product competitiveness
GRAS certification is a globally recognized food safety standard and a quality mark recognized by the international market. Once Eucommia extract obtains this certification, it will win the trust of more customers and partners worldwide. Whether it is exported to other countries or entering the U.S. market, GRAS certification can greatly enhance the market competitiveness of Zhejiang Eucommia extract.
Helping brand building
The acquisition of GRAS certification symbolizes Zhejiang's strict commitment to product quality and safety. Consumers and industry partners will have higher trust in the Zhejiang Eucommia brand, which will play a positive role in the long-term development of the brand, the increase in market share and the establishment of brand reputation.
How to obtain FDA GRAS certification?
