Botanical Supply Chain Traceability System

Quality & Compliance System

End-to-End Botanical Traceability: From Field Cultivation to Batch-Certified Active Ingredient

At RAAG Biotech Co., Ltd., transparent supply chain documentation is integral to active ingredient integrity. Our four-pillar batch verification system guarantees rigorous botanical authentication, precise parameter tracking, and complete audit readiness for global B2B procurement.

For international buyers in the pharmaceutical, dietary supplement, cosmetic, and functional food industries, ingredient safety depends on verifiable supply chain origin. RAAG Biotech Co., Ltd. implements a fully digitized, end-to-end quality tracking protocol. Every lot of standardized herbal extract, pure plant monomer, CO2 supercritical oleoresin, or plant powder carries a dedicated master batch code that bridges farm-level harvesting data with final chromatographic release assays.

PILLAR 01

Upstream Traceability: Botanical Origin & Cultivation

Raw material integrity establishes the baseline for standardized potency and safety compliance. We strictly audit and track every harvest at the agriculture stage:

Botanical Authentication: Verified by Latin binomial (genus, species, chemotype) and specific plant organ (root, rhizome, leaf, flower, or seed).
GAP Cultivation Logs: Sourced from audited Good Agricultural Practice (GAP) planting bases with registered geographic coordinates, soil quality assessments, and irrigation monitoring.
Pre-Harvest Chemical Screening: Harvest timing is optimized for peak active marker content. Herb shipments undergo mandatory intake testing for pesticides, heavy metals (Pb, Cd, Hg, As), and mycotoxins according to USP and EP limits.
Qualified Grower Audit Files: Complete transaction logs and vendor qualification certificates are archived for a minimum 5-year retention period.

PILLAR 02

Internal Traceability: In-Process Digital Quality Control

Manufacturing execution at our production facility is governed by strict cGMP parameters and batch-level digital tracking:

Master Batch Identifier: Every incoming herb lot receives a unique barcode tracking code linked to intermediate concentrates, purified fractions, and finished milled powders.
Critical Process Parameter Logs: Temperatures, operating pressures, solvent ratios, extraction durations, column chromatography fractions, and vacuum drying profiles are digitally captured in real time.
Sanitation & Line Clearance: Clean-in-Place (CIP) logs, equipment identification numbers, and cleanroom environmental monitoring data (Class 100,000 / ISO 8) are verified before line release.
QA Sign-off Checkpoints: In-process HPLC and UV assay tests require formal authorization by qualified quality control chemists before moving to subsequent processing steps.

Downstream Traceability: Batch Release & Documentation

Final product validation ensures every shipment meets exact customer technical specifications and destination market regulatory codes:

Batch-Specific COA Package: Every export drum is delivered with a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis documenting marker percentage (HPLC/UV/GC), particle size mesh, moisture, heavy metals, pesticides, and microbiological counts.
Full Regulatory Dossiers: Technical Data Sheets (TDS), Safety Data Sheets (MSDS), Non-GMO declarations, Allergen statements, and process flowcharts are provided per batch.
Packaging & Serialization: Sealed double-layer food-grade PE bags in fiber drums, marked with tamper-evident serialization barcodes for warehouse tracking.
Retained Sample Protocol: Dual analytical control samples are preserved under climate-controlled conditions for 36 months to support ongoing stability verification.

PILLAR 04

Quality Assurance & Compliance System

Our traceability architecture empowers seamless global compliance, rapid risk mitigation, and international buyer audits:

Audit-Ready System: Standardized documentation workflows engineered for rapid evaluation by ISO, HACCP, HALAL, KOSHER, and third-party inspectors (e.g., SGS, Eurofins).
Root-Cause Investigation (CAPA): Automated reverse-traceability allows instant investigation from finished batch numbers back to specific raw material fields, equipment logs, or operator shifts within 2 hours.
Mock Recall Drills: Annual simulated recall procedures maintain full supply chain responsiveness, ensuring complete inventory accountability across global distribution channels.
Regulatory Alignment: Designed to satisfy stringent FDA FSVP, EU EFSA botanical guidance, and international import customs clearance requirements.
