Herbs
India is the birthplace of Ayurveda and home to over 17,000 species of medicinal and aromatic plants — the largest repository of documented botanical knowledge in the world. The global herbal extract, nutraceutical, and botanical supplement market exceeded USD 40 billion in 2024 and continues growing at 7–9% annually, driven by demand from USA, EU, Japan, and the Gulf for standardised herbal ingredients. IndianXporter exports raw dried herbs, powders, and standardised extracts sourced from AYUSH-certified, GMP-compliant processors.

HERB EXPORT COMPLIANCE & TESTING
Herbs exported for nutraceutical and pharmaceutical use face the strictest regulatory scrutiny of any natural product category:
EU Novel Foods Regulation (2015/2283): Several Ayurvedic herbs — including Ashwagandha root extract, Moringa powder, and Brahmi — are under EU Novel Food evaluation. We advise buyers on the regulatory pathway for each ingredient before purchase.
Ethylene Oxide (ETO) Ban: The EU banned ETO as a fumigant for food and botanical products in 2020 following Salmonella incidents. Indian herb exporters must use alternative sterilisation: steam sterilisation, UV irradiation, or cold plasma. IndianXporter uses steam sterilisation exclusively for EU-bound herb shipments and provides sterilisation certificates.
Heavy Metals: USP and EU Pharmacopoeial limits for heavy metals (lead, arsenic, cadmium, mercury) in botanical ingredients are stringent. We provide ICP-MS heavy metal panel COA from NABL labs as standard.
Microbial Standards: Total plate count (TPC), E. coli, Salmonella, Yeast & Mould tested per USP <61>/<62> or EP 2.6.12 standards for pharmaceutical-grade herbs.

Frequently Asked Questions — Herbs Export
Is Ashwagandha approved for sale as a food supplement in the EU?
Ashwagandha root extract is under EU Novel Foods assessment (application submitted, awaiting EFSA evaluation). It can currently be sold in EU member states where it has a history of use before May 1997 (UK, Germany have limited precedent). For EU-bound Ashwagandha, buyers should consult their national competent authority. IndianXporter can supply with full dossier documentation for regulatory submission.
How does IndianXporter sterilise herbs for EU export without ethylene oxide?
We use steam sterilisation (continuous or batch process, achieving 6-log reduction in microbial load) and provide steam sterilisation certificates with every EU-bound herb shipment. We do not use ethylene oxide (banned in the EU since 2020). UV irradiation is available as an alternative for heat-sensitive extracts. Sterilisation method and parameters are documented in the COA.
What heavy metal testing does IndianXporter provide for herbs?
We provide ICP-MS heavy metal panel testing (Lead, Arsenic, Cadmium, Mercury) from NABL-accredited laboratories. Results are reported in mg/kg against USP <232>, EU Pharmacopoeia, and/or customer-specified limits. For Ayurvedic herbs bound for USA supplement market, we can test against USP Botanical Dietary Supplement standards.
Can IndianXporter supply organic certified herbs?
Yes. We supply NPOP (India Organic) and NOP (USDA Organic) dual-certified herbs including Ashwagandha, Moringa, Tulsi, and Neem. EU organic herbs require NPOP certification (which has EU mutual recognition). Organic processing follows dedicated organic-only lines with no cross-contamination from conventional production.

MOQ varies by product: Moringa powder and Ashwagandha powder: 500kg (LCL). Standardised extracts (KSM-66, Bacopa extract): 25kg. Dried culinary herbs (mint, basil, sage): 100kg.
