Our raw materials are pure wild seabuckthorn, which is 100% hand-picked. The seabuckthorn must be transported to the company’s quick-freezing warehouse within two hours, and the temperature must be kept at minus 18 degrees. Our ingredients are certified organic food in Japan, EU and USA, and have undergone rigorous testing. The most rigorous Japanese Hokkaido pesticide residue center testing, all 408 heavy metals and pesticide residues are zero. Only such seabuckthorn fresh fruit can be used as raw materials for our products.

A Virtuous Cycle of Sustainable Development

As the company rapidly grows, it has also built a sound and sustainable ecosystem. Our seabuckthorn cultivation not only contributes to desertification control, but also creates wealth for farmers and promotes health benefits for the public.

As a result, seabuckthorn has been called:

  • The nation’s ecological tree
  • The farmer’s wealth tree
  • The consumer’s health tree
  • The enterprise’s business tree

Seabuckthorn not only has excellent nutritional value, but also has significant ecological value-it can effectively improve desertified land. Through large-scale seabuckthorn harvesting, we have opened up a stable income channel for local farmers; At the same time, we actively call for expanding planting. Our company’s annual “seabuckthorn International Arbor Day” has attracted tens of thousands of people to participate, continuously supporting desertification control in Inner Mongolia.

The promotion of seabuckthorn products not only allows more consumers to gain health through consumption, but also provides stable raw material guarantee for the company.
