Damin Food

**(1):Natural Caffeine**

At this year’s show, Damin debuted Natural Caffeine extracted from tea leaves. Drawing
on years of accumulated expertise in tea extraction, Damin International uses a 
purely physical process to consistently raise the caffeine content to above 20%,
without adding organic solvents at any stage. Sourced from tea leaves, this product
combines a natural origin with a stable supply, offering a caffeine option with 
more natural attributes for applications such as energy drinks, sports nutrition,
and dietary supplements. It also aligns with current market interest in clean-label
products and ingredients of natural origin.

**(2):EGCG**

EGCG is one of the core catechin compounds in tea polyphenols that has been widely
studied and is notable for its activity. Building on years of accumulated expertise
in tea extraction, separation, purification, and standardization, Damin International
continues to optimize the specifications, stability, and application suitability
of EGCG. It can provide tea-derived EGCG ingredients for use in dietary supplements,
functional beverages, foods, and other applications, supporting product development
in areas such as antioxidant and metabolic health.

**(3):CitriFlow™ Glucosyl Hesperidin**

CitriFlow™ Glucosyl Hesperidin is a signature achievement of Damin International’s
enzymatic modification technology platform. Leveraging this platform, Damin International
has achieved stable industrial-scale production of Glucosyl Hesperidin. Compared
with conventional hesperidin, Glucosyl Hesperidin has approximately 100,000 times
greater water solubility, with significantly enhanced bioavailability and thermal
stability. Its performance in applications is more versatile, enabling its broad
use in functional beverages, dietary supplements, cosmetics, and other fields to
meet diverse use scenarios and customer needs.

**(4):Theabrownin**

Theabrownin is an important active constituent unique to dark tea. Damin International
also uses a purely physical process to consistently increase the theabrownin content
to over 85%, without adding organic solvents at any stage. Research shows that theabrownin
may help regulate blood glucose levels, lower uric acid and cholesterol, support
the gut–brain axis, and increase satiety by modulating gut microbiota composition,
promoting short-chain fatty acid production, regulating bile acid metabolism, and
improving gut barrier function.^([1])

At the exhibition, natural caffeine, EGCG, and theabrownin formed the centerpiece
of Damin’s tea-derived functional ingredients showcase, attracting interest from
attending customers.

In addition to the four core ingredients mentioned above, Damin International also
showcased more than ten standardized botanical extracts rooted in Traditional Chinese
Medicine at SSG, including Astragalus Root Extract and Panax Ginseng Extract, along
with several innovative end-product application solutions that offer ideas for bringing
functional ingredients into practical use.

Building on full-industry-chain technical capabilities spanning raw material extraction,
purification, characterization, and formulation applications, as well as the ongoing
innovation support of a professional team of nearly 100 at its Shanghai R&D headquarters,
Damin International showcased its comprehensive portfolio of health and wellness
ingredients and innovative application achievements to global partners at this year’s
exhibition. Through in-depth one-on-one conversations during the exhibition, Damin
actively listened to customer feedback and needs, explored the potential of its 
products, and further expanded channels for market collaboration. Looking ahead,
Damin International will continue to drive innovation in botanical nutrition through
science and work hand in hand with global partners, bringing functional ingredients
into the daily lives of more people and jointly realizing the inspiring vision of"
Better Living, Better Health."
