Alcohol Based Tinctures
The traditional extraction method using ethanol (25–90%) as a solvent, highly effective for capturing a broad range of plant compounds such as alkaloids, resins, and vitamins. Commonly used for potent herbal extracts including Echinacea, Milk Thistle, Valerian, and Kava.
Dual Extraction Tinctures
A specialized method for medicinal mushrooms such as Reishi, Chaga, Lion’s Mane, and Cordyceps. The process uses hot water extraction to release beta-glucans, followed by an alcohol extraction to capture triterpenes, with both fractions carefully blended for a complete extract.
Glycerine Based Tinctures
Alcohol-free tinctures made with vegetable glycerine as the solvent. Naturally sweet in taste, they are well-suited for children’s formulations and alcohol-free herbal products such as Elderberry and Chamomile.
Packaging, Labeling & Special Content
Primary Packing
Amber Glass Bottles- The industry standard, available in multiple sizes (1oz, 2oz, 4oz). Amber glass protects light-sensitive botanicals from degradation.
Dropper Assemblies- Glass or plastic droppers with graduated markings (0.5ml, 1.0ml) for accurate dosing. Orifice size is matched to the liquid’s viscosity.
Child-Resistant Caps- Essential for alcohol-based tinctures, ensuring product safety and compliance.
Pipettes- Graduated pipettes supplied with larger bottles (100ml+), supporting precise dispensing.
Box Packaging
Folding Cartons- Designed to protect glass bottles, provide space for branding, and include essential regulatory details and documentation.
Mandatory Information- Labels must display product name, net quantity (e.g., 2 fl oz / 60ml), batch number, manufacturing and expiry dates, alcohol content, complete ingredient list, directions for use (e.g., twice daily), warnings, and manufacturer details.
Technical Specifications- Important data often includes extraction ratio (e.g., 1:5), solvent type (e.g., 60% organic ethanol), and herb strength equivalency (e.g., 500mg herb per 1ml) for clarity and compliance.
Additional Content- Labels may highlight features such as “Full-Spectrum Extract,” “Standardized Extract” (e.g., standardized to 0.8% Aucubin), “Alcohol-Free,” “Organic,” or “Shake Well.” QR codes can also be added to give consumers digital access to product information.
