Question 1

What products does SV Botanica export?

Accepted Answer

We export standardised herbal extracts, natural and essential oils, spices and oleoresins, and nutraceutical ingredients sourced from India. The catalogue covers 150+ botanical ingredients supplied in bulk to supplement, food and cosmetic manufacturers worldwide.

Question 2

Do you ship to the US and EU?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We regularly supply buyers in the United States, the European Union and other global markets, with export documentation, phytosanitary certificates and customs paperwork prepared for each destination.

Question 3

Can you meet EU import requirements for Indian botanicals?

Accepted Answer

Yes. For EU-bound consignments we arrange pesticide residue (MRL) panels, heavy-metal and microbiological testing and ethylene oxide (ETO) screening through accredited third-party laboratories, and prepare the documentation EU importers need for consignments subject to increased official controls.

Question 4

What is your minimum order quantity (MOQ)?

Accepted Answer

MOQs vary by product, typically starting at 25 kg for extracts and oleoresins and scaling to full-container loads. Share your target specification and annual volume to receive exact terms.

Question 5

Which certifications do you hold?

Accepted Answer

Our supply chain is backed by GMP and ISO-certified manufacturing facilities, USDA Organic, Halal and Kosher documentation on request, an FSSAI Central Licence and APEDA registration. Product-specific Certificates of Analysis are provided with every shipment.

Question 6

Can I request samples before placing a bulk order?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We provide pre-shipment samples with a full CoA so your QC and R&D teams can validate identity, assay and purity before committing to a production-scale order.

Question 7

What are typical lead times for bulk orders?

Accepted Answer

Stocked extracts typically dispatch within 2–3 weeks of order confirmation. Custom standardisations or large volumes may take longer; the exact lead time is confirmed in writing for every order.

Question 8

Do you offer private labelling and custom packaging?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We support private labelling, custom pack sizes and packaging formats for bulk buyers, together with matching freight and export documentation.

Question 9

Why does the assay method on a CoA matter?

Accepted Answer

The same percentage can mean different things depending on the method. For example, curcuminoids measured by UV usually read higher than by HPLC, and gravimetric saponin values are not comparable with HPLC marker values. We always state the method on the CoA so your specification and incoming QC test match.

Question 10

What information should I include in a sourcing enquiry?

Accepted Answer

Include the botanical name and plant part, required marker and assay method, solvent or carrier preferences, particle size, target market regulations, annual volume and packaging. This lets us confirm feasibility and documentation in a single response.
