Custom OEM Natural Herbal Extract Factories & Factory for the Lyon Market

Every cosmetic raw material supplied—including our cosmetic-grade Ectoine 99% and Niacinamide—is accompanied by a comprehensive technical documentation package. This includes full Certificates of Analysis (COA), detailed Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS compliant with REACH Annex II), microbiological profiles, heavy metal assays (Pb <2 ppm, As <1 ppm, Cd <0.5 ppm, Hg <0.1 ppm), residual solvent profiles (USP <467>), and statements confirming the absence of animal testing (EU animal testing ban compliance). This documentation allows your Responsible Person (RP) to integrate our raw materials directly into the Cosmetic Product Safety Report (CPSR).

Gavra Bio-Tech holds an SVIP priority dispatch account with international couriers FedEx, DHL, and air cargo consolidators. For stock materials (1 kg to 100 kg), goods are dispatched from our warehouse within 3 to 5 business days following payment processing. Transit time to Lyon-Saint Exupéry (LYS) or Paris Charles de Gaulle (CDG) typically takes 4 to 6 business days. We provide commercial invoices, packing lists with accurate HS tariff codes, and certificates of origin. We can ship under DDP (Delivered Duty Paid), DAP, CIF, or FOB depending on your internal customs clearance preferences.

Yes. We recognize that biotechnology startups, cosmetic formulation laboratories in Lyon Biopôle, and compounding pharmacies often operate on small-scale clinical validation runs. We maintain low Minimum Order Quantities (MOQs)—starting at just 1 kg for most standardized plant extracts and cosmetic actives, and down to 1 g to 10 g for specialized peptides and mitochondrial cofactors. Free samples (20 g to 50 g) are readily provided for analytical bench evaluations, provided the freight or carrier account is arranged.

Ethylene Oxide contamination is an absolute disqualifier under European Commission food safety regulations. Gavra Bio-Tech enforces zero-ETO usage throughout all harvesting, drying, and extraction phases. We utilize validated heat sterilization and clean spray drying processes. Furthermore, our extracts are screened for Benzo(a)pyrene and the sum of PAH4 (Benzo[a]pyrene, chrysene, benzo[b]fluoranthene, and benz[a]anthracene) using GC-MS systems to guarantee full alignment with EU Regulation 2015/1933 before any lot is released for European export.

Beyond supplying raw extract powders in drums, our OEM/ODM contract production lines deliver complete turnkey finished dosage forms. Capabilities include vegan pectin gummies (ideal for nutricosmetics), two-piece vegetarian HPMC/pullulan capsules, hard gelatin capsules, compressed tablets (chewable, effervescent, enteric-coated), and customized single-serve powder sachets. We support our French partners through batch formulation, organoleptic optimization, pilot stability testing, and bulk-to-blister packaging.

We accept standard corporate international telegraphic transfers (T/T), confirmed letters of credit (L/C) for container loads, credit card payments for rapid dispatch samples, and Western Union. Invoices can be denominated in EUR (€), USD ($), or CNY (¥), facilitating seamless international treasury management without redundant conversion steps for your procurement department.
