As Austria’s second-largest city and the core of the Human.technology Styria (HTS) Life Science Cluster, Graz operates at the crossroads of academic pharmacognosy, high-end biomedical research, and Europe’s greenest wellness culture.
Backed by the legacy of Karl-Franzens-Universität Graz’s Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences, regional laboratories design advanced botanical formulas. Our standardized extracts, such as Urtica Dioica (Stinging Nettle Root) and active mushroom polysaccharides (Lion’s Mane, Reishi), provide standardized marker compounds (beta-sitosterols, beta-glucans) guaranteed by HPLC analysis, adhering strictly to Ph. Eur. monographs.
Graz’s vibrant student population and progressive coffeehouse culture drive soaring demand for functional, zero-crash botanicals. Our Ceremonial Grade Matcha, high-solubility Instant Black Tea, and water-soluble Phycocyanin (Blue Spirulina) serve regional RTD beverage bottling plants and boutique health bars demanding crystal-clear solubility, vibrant sensory appeal, and low microbial counts.
Styria is celebrated as the "Culinary Capital of Austria," known worldwide for pumpkin seed delicacies and strict non-GMO food standards. Formulators are systematically phasing out synthetic food colorants. Our Eurofins-tested Purple Yam (Ube) and Sodium Copper Chlorophyllin provide heat-stable purple and green shades that easily meet Austrian consumer demands for transparent, plant-derived food additives.
Austrian skincare brands require premium natural ingredients that comply with EC Regulation 1223/2009. Our bulk Sodium Copper Chlorophyllin 99%, natural polyphenol extracts, and marine collagen peptide series offer excellent biocompatibility, zero dermal irritation, and validated antioxidant capabilities for protective alpine anti-pollution serums and soothing ointments.
Understanding shifting legislative, sustainability, and consumer priorities ensures seamless supply chain integration and rapid AGES approvals for Styrian enterprises.
The European Organic Regulation (EU) 2018/848 enforces unprecedented rigor regarding multi-residue pesticide limits, ethylene oxide (EtO) prohibition, and complete supply chain auditability via the electronic TRACES NT certification platform. Austrian importers now insist on pesticide screening protocols according to BS EN 15662 across all organic powdered botanicals.
Under Commission Regulation (EU) 2023/915, Austrian authorities (AGES) strictly enforce maximum threshold levels for Pyrrolizidine Alkaloids (PA), Tropane Alkaloids, Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAH4), and heavy metals (Pb, Cd, Hg, As). Graz procurement officers no longer buy spot market lots lacking HPLC-MS/MS validation for these specific contaminants.
Following strict European guidelines on azo colorants (the "Southampton Six"), Austrian food processors are removing all artificial colors (Allura Red, Brilliant Blue) in favor of functional plant compounds. Natural blue spirulina (phycocyanin) and purple ube powders are expanding rapidly across Graz's dairy, ice cream, functional confectionery, and craft spirits sectors.
With Austria leading EU Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence, procurement directors at Graz health enterprises require clear environmental footprints, non-radiation certifications, and transparent supplier assessments to comply with European ESG benchmarks and prevent port delays at Austrian border checkpoints.
In the botanical ingredient sphere, generic label declarations can be profoundly misleading. For example, two herbal extracts declaring an apparent "98% assay" or "10:1 TLC ratio" can exhibit wildly different pharmacokinetics, molecular fingerprints, residual solvent profiles, and physiological bioavailability. Xi'an Vexli Bio-Tech operates at the intersection of traditional botanical harvesting and advanced analytical chemistry, providing Austrian formulation scientists with uncompromising transparency.
A primary pitfall in botanical sourcing is assay methodology discrepancy. UV-Vis spectrophotometry frequently yields artificially inflated active percentage measurements because generic chromophores and non-target polyphenols absorb at identical wavelengths. For our active botanical monographs—including Urtica Dioica root extracts, isolated longevity coenzymes, and polyphenol extracts—we implement High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) coupled with Diode Array Detection (DAD) and Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) for absolute peak identification.

| Pesticide Multi-Screening | Domestic generic screen (<50 compounds) | BS EN 15662 multi-residue GC-MS/MS & LC-MS/MS (>500 targeted compounds) | Guaranteed entry via Austrian customs; zero risk of ethylene oxide or persistent pesticide seizure |
| Heavy Metal Limits | Generic limits (Total Heavy Metals <20 ppm) | Pb <1.0 mg/kg, Cd <0.5 mg/kg, Hg <0.1 mg/kg, As <1.0 mg/kg (ICP-MS) | Full compliance with Commission Regulation (EU) 2023/915 for human consumption |
| Microbial Safety Profile | TPC <50,000 CFU/g; Yeast/Mold variable | TPC <1,000 CFU/g; Absence of E. coli, Salmonella, S. aureus in 25g | Eliminates bioburden risk in low-heat functional beverages and ready-to-mix protein blends |
| Physical Flowability | 80 mesh; wide particle distribution | Controlled 80–450 mesh grading with vibrating sieve & magnetic separation | Prevents clumping in high-speed capsule filling and ensures immediate beverage dispersion |
Thermal degradation during evaporation and spray drying remains the largest threat to fragile botanical bioactives such as chlorophyllin complexes, phycocyanin biliproteins, and green tea polyphenols. Our manufacturing protocols utilize dynamic low-temperature counter-current extraction combined with ultra-high vacuum concentration below 55°C. This maintains natural molecular integrity, native stereoisomer balances, and natural solubility kinetics, allowing Graz finished-product manufacturers to achieve unmatched batch-to-batch sensory and therapeutic reproducibility.
Combining primary origin-direct harvesting across Shaanxi’s premier herbal valleys with rigorous internal laboratory testing and streamlined DDP delivery directly to Styrian warehouses.
Xi'an Vexli Bio-Tech Co., Ltd. has passed comprehensive on-site facility and supply chain evaluations conducted by SGS. Our operations adhere strictly to ISO 22000 Food Safety Management, HACCP preventive controls, Halal, Kosher, and USDA & EU Organic standards, providing the regulatory certainty required by Austrian QA directors.
Rather than relying on volatile third-party commodity exchanges, we operate direct agricultural sourcing agreements at botanical origins, supported by a network of 25 strictly audited contract manufacturing plants. This vertical structure allows us to insulate our Graz partners from sharp raw-material market fluctuations and guarantee year-round supply stability.
We are a recognized National High-Tech Enterprise holding proprietary intellectual property, including Invention Patent ZL 2014 1 0464649.9 (advanced extraction and purification methodology) and Utility Model Patent No. 14520048 (high-efficiency plant extraction apparatus), delivering industry-leading target constituent yields with minimal ecological footprint.

Real, auditable manufacturing capacity backing your Austrian manufacturing pipeline.
Comprehensive technical and commercial answers addressing Austrian import compliance, analytical testing standards, transport logistics, and custom OEM capabilities.
Every shipment destined for Austria undergoes comprehensive analytical verification before departure. Organic items (such as Ceremonial Matcha and Spirulina Phycocyanin) are accompanied by valid EU Organic transaction certificates processed via the official TRACES NT system. Furthermore, we test lots at accredited third-party laboratories (including Eurofins and SGS) using multi-residue GC-MS/MS and LC-MS/MS according to standard BS EN 15662 to verify full compliance with EU maximum residue limits (MRLs).
For express R&D sample batches and low-volume pilot orders (1 kg to 50 kg), air transit via DHL, FedEx, or specialized air cargo takes approximately 4 to 7 business days from Xi'an to Graz Airport (GRZ) or Vienna International Airport (VIE), followed by rapid direct truck delivery to your Styrian facility. For bulk commercial manufacturing lots (100 kg to multi-ton consignments), multimodal maritime routes via Hamburg or Koper to the Cargo Center Graz (CCG) terminal take roughly 28 to 35 days, with full customs clearance and DDP options provided.
Yes. Unlike many industrial bulk processors that enforce 100 kg or 500 kg minimum thresholds, our standard MOQ for most botanical extracts, active superfoods, and natural colorants starts at just 1 kg. This enables research teams at Graz universities and startup botanical formulators to execute pilot trials, formulation stability tests, and sensory focus groups without overcommitting capital or generating inventory waste.
Each shipment is delivered with a complete compliance dossier, including: a batch-specific Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing physical, chemical, and microbiological assay metrics; an allergen statement (in compliance with EU Regulation 1169/2011); a non-GMO declaration; an animal-welfare and BSE/TSE-free certificate; a 16-section Safety Data Sheet (MSDS); and relevant transport safety declarations (IATA DGR and IMDG codes) ensuring frictionless customs handling.
Absolutely. Particle size dramatically impacts dissolution speed, mouthfeel, and encapsulation density. We can mill and screen our botanical extracts from standard 80 mesh (suitable for automated hard-gelatin capsule filling) up to an ultra-fine 450 mesh (ideal for instant cold-soluble beverage blends and cloud-stable suspensions). Additionally, our engineering team can perform homogeneous ribbon blending of synergistic botanicals, natural sweeteners, and prebiotic carriers to your exact formulation specification.
We support an extensive array of international trade structures, including EXW, FOB, CFR, CIF, FCA, and complete DDP (Delivered Duty Paid to your facility in Graz or wider Styria).
