China New Cosmetic Ingredient Success Story: Vaccinium Corymbosum Fruit Extract

Updated on

On July 17, 2026, Zhejiang Lanmei Technology Co., Ltd. successfully completed the notification of Vaccinium Corymbosum Fruit Extract as a new cosmetic ingredient in China. REACH24H Consulting Group provided regulatory and technical support throughout the notification process.

The ingredient is derived from Lanmei No. 1, a blueberry cultivar independently developed in China and recognized as a national superior tree variety. Through proprietary extraction and purification technologies, Zhejiang Lanmei enriches and prepares the fruit extract from Vaccinium corymbosum.

With a clearly characterized composition and controllable quality, the ingredient is intended to provide skin-protecting and anti-wrinkle functions. It offers cosmetic formulators an innovative botanical ingredient with both potential functional value and traceable sourcing.

REACH24H's Support in the Notification Process

In this project, REACH24H's cosmetic ingredient technical team developed a tailored regulatory pathway based on the characteristics of the ingredient and the applicant's specific needs.

Throughout the notification process, REACH24H worked closely with Zhejiang Lanmei to address challenging technical and compliance issues. The team provided coordinated support in regulatory strategy development, dossier preparation, technical review, issue resolution and submission communication, helping the company successfully complete the new cosmetic ingredient notification.

About Zhejiang Lanmei Technology Co., Ltd.

Founded in 2010, Zhejiang Lanmei Technology Co., Ltd. is a national high-tech enterprise specializing in science-based seed breeding and the development of functional food ingredients. The company has established capabilities across the blueberry value chain, covering cultivar development, cultivation, extraction, ingredient research and commercial applications.

Its independently developed Lanmei No. 1 blueberry cultivar has been recognized as a national superior tree variety. The company has also developed blueberry anthocyanin ingredients with a stated purity of more than 40%, containing 15 anthocyanin components. Its blueberry anthocyanins have received approval as a new food ingredient in China.

The successful notification of Vaccinium Corymbosum Fruit Extract represents another important step in Zhejiang Lanmei's development of high-value ingredients from distinctive Chinese botanical resources.

China New Cosmetic Ingredient Notification

Under China's cosmetics regulatory framework, new cosmetic ingredients must complete registration or notification before they can be used in cosmetic products placed on the Chinese market. For overseas ingredient manufacturers, successful notification requires not only a sound understanding of regulations, but also a technically sound dossier covering ingredient identity, composition, quality control, safety assessment, and supporting data. Furthermore, current regulations mandate that overseas NCI notifiers appoint a China-based legal entity to act as their domestic "Responsible Person" (RP), which assumes full responsibility for the ingredient's registration, notification, and post-market safety monitoring and compliance management.

To help global enterprises navigate China's evolving regulatory landscape, REACH24H offers full-process support for China new cosmetic ingredient registration and notification, including:

  • Regulatory status confirmation and compliance pathway assessment

  • Ingredient naming, identity, composition, and structural characterization support

  • Technical dossier preparation and gap analysis

  • Toxicological data review and safety assessment support

  • Submission support and post-notification compliance management

In addition to these core technical and consulting services, REACH24H now provides full domestic "Responsible Person" (RP) services for NCIs, offering overseas ingredient companies a seamless, one-stop guarantee for compliant operations and robust post-market stewardship in China.
