In recent years, along with the gradual popularization of the concepts of "returning to nature" and "green consumption", plant extract products have been warmly respected around the world, showing strong growth momentum. According to customs data, the export value of China's plant extract industry was only 200 million U.S. dollars in 2002, but in 2011 it exceeded 1 billion U.S. dollars, reaching 1.130 billion U.S. dollars, and in 2014 China's export value of plant extracts jumped to 1.778 billion U.S. dollars, a year-on-year increase of 25.88%, with a rapid pace of development.

Since its formation, the plant extract industry has formed an inseparable relationship with the upstream and downstream industries of food, food and beverage, organic food, green food, functional food, health food, health food, food additives and other food processing may involve the use of plant extracts.
Food additives is a major development direction of plant extracts. With the rise of the modern food industry and the improvement of living standards, consumer health awareness gradually increased, safe, natural products are increasingly favored by food companies and consumers. And food additives are an indispensable part of the modern food industry, therefore, the development of the food industry will greatly stimulate the demand for food additives based on natural plant extracts as raw materials. In the field of beverages, the international market has entered an era of blossoming, and more and more beverage producers are utilizing the special efficacy possessed by natural plant extracts as a selling point for new beverages to cut into the market in order to drive profit growth.
Secondly, the development of the plant extract industry is also closely related to the upstream food extraction equipment industry. Since plant extracts are mainly used in food and beverages, health care products and other industries directly related to life and health, quality control of plant extract products is the core link of the whole industrial chain, and raw materials, semi-finished products and finished products are all subject to strict monitoring. The quality control of plant extracts mainly includes quantitative inspection and limited inspection. Quantitative inspection refers to the detection of the content of active substances for the purpose, while limited inspection items include the detection of impurities, moisture, ash, heavy metals, pesticide residues, microorganisms, etc. of plant sources or plant extracts. Therefore, various types of testing equipment will become an important guarantee for the quality and safety of plant extracts.
All in all, plant extract industry is a technology-dependent industry. Advanced extraction processes and equipment can not only significantly improve the quality of extract products, but also improve the utilization of raw materials, reduce the waste of raw materials and lower production costs. With the increasing number of competitors in the industry, the degree of competition is increasingly fierce, enterprises will certainly choose to continuously improve technology and develop new technology development strategy. With the improvement of process equipment and innovation in ways and means, human research on plants and human body will continue to deepen, new plant components that meet the needs of the human body will continue to be discovered, and the product range of plant extracts will continue to be enriched. The development prospect of plant extracts is worth looking forward to.
