Product Overview: Green Coffee Bean Extract Chlorogenic Acid 50%
Green Coffee Bean Extract Chlorogenic Acid is a high-purity botanical ingredient derived from unroasted Coffea arabica or Coffea robusta beans through a controlled solvent extraction process. Unlike roasted coffee, green coffee beans retain elevated concentrations of chlorogenic acid — a naturally occurring polyphenol that is largely degraded during the roasting process. This makes green coffee beans one of the richest and most commercially viable plant-based sources of chlorogenic acid available in the global ingredient market.
At Extract Makers, we supply this extract as a standardized fine yellow powder with a minimum chlorogenic acid content of 50%, verified by HPLC analysis. The product is non-GMO, vegan-friendly, and manufactured in a fully GMP-certified facility, making it suitable for integration into a wide range of finished product formulations across the nutraceutical, functional food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries.
What Is Chlorogenic Acid?
Chlorogenic acid (CGA) is the primary bioactive compound found in green coffee bean extract. Chemically, it is an ester of caffeic acid and quinic acid, classified within the hydroxycinnamic acid family of polyphenols. It is one of the most abundant dietary antioxidants found in the plant kingdom and has been the subject of extensive scientific research over the past two decades.
Chlorogenic acid is recognized for a broad spectrum of biological activities, including:
- Antioxidant activity — Neutralizes free radicals and reduces oxidative stress at the cellular level
- Antibacterial properties — Demonstrated inhibitory effects against a range of pathogenic microorganisms
- Antitumor potential — Subject to ongoing research regarding its role in modulating cell proliferation pathways
- Metabolic support — Associated with the modulation of glucose metabolism and fat oxidation
- Cardiovascular benefits — Supports healthy blood pressure and lipid levels through multiple physiological mechanisms
These properties make chlorogenic acid a highly sought-after active ingredient for formulators seeking science-backed, plant-derived functional components.
Raw Material Sourcing and Extraction Process
Source Material
The extract is derived from carefully selected green coffee beans sourced from established agricultural regions known for consistent crop quality. Raw material procurement follows strict identity verification and traceability protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and supply chain transparency.
Extraction Technology
Green Coffee Bean Extract is produced using solvent-assisted extraction methods optimized to maximize chlorogenic acid yield while minimizing the presence of undesirable residues. The extraction process involves:
- Raw material pre-processing — Cleaning, size reduction, and moisture standardization of green coffee beans
- Solvent extraction — Controlled extraction using food-grade solvents under defined temperature and pressure parameters
- Filtration and concentration — Removal of insoluble plant material followed by liquid concentration
- Spray drying or vacuum drying — Conversion to a fine, free-flowing powder with low residual moisture
- Standardization and blending — Final adjustment to achieve a consistent chlorogenic acid specification of ≥50%
This multi-stage process ensures that the final extract delivers reliable potency, predictable performance in downstream formulations, and compliance with international quality standards.
