Chinese Herb Storage & Warehousing
How a herb is stored decides what’s left of it by the time it ships. We store in two tiers — seven sourcing warehouses at origin, and graded ambient, cool and controlled-atmosphere warehouses at our factory — all under GSP standards, and traceable back to the field.
Chinese Herb Storage & Warehousing
How a herb is stored decides what’s left of it by the time it ships. We store in two tiers — seven sourcing warehouses at origin, and graded ambient, cool and controlled-atmosphere warehouses at our factory — all under GSP standards, and traceable back to the field.
Two Tiers of Storage, One GSP Standard
Held right from the growing region to the finished pallet.
Our storage works in two tiers. At origin, seven sourcing warehouses hold raw material close to where it grows. At our Pingliang facility, finished and in-process stock is kept in graded warehouses matched to what each herb needs:
Ambient storage
for stable dried materials that hold their quality at room conditions.
Cool storage
low-temperature and out of light, for heat- and light-sensitive herbs and volatile-oil materials.
MA Storage
a regulated atmosphere that holds quality and suppresses insects without fumigation.
We assign each material to the right room instead of stacking everything in one space — and because controlled-atmosphere storage manages pests by regulating the air rather than gassing the stock, we hold a sulfur-free standard with no fumigation residues.
Seven Sourcing Warehouses, Built for Export
Storage starts at origin, not at the factory gate. We run seven raw-material procurement and storage warehouses across China’s growing regions — Gansu, Sichuan, Anhui, Zhejiang, Hebei, Liaoning and Guangdong — set up first and foremost for the international herb-export trade, and also supplying our own production. Holding herbs in proper conditions from the moment they leave the field is what keeps quality intact before processing even begins. Since 2020 our ERP links every lot across the network, so a batch in finished storage traces back to the warehouse and region it came from.

Storage & Warehousing — FAQ
How should Chinese herbs be stored?
Dried Chinese herbs should be kept cool, dry and out of direct light, with sensitive or volatile materials held in cool or controlled-atmosphere storage and moisture kept within spec. We store under the national GSP standard across ambient, cool and controlled-atmosphere warehouses.
Do you fumigate or use sulfur to preserve herbs?
No. We run a sulfur-free standard and use controlled-atmosphere storage to manage pests by regulating the air, so stored material doesn’t carry sulfur or fumigation residues.
Where are your warehouses located?
We operate seven sourcing warehouses across China’s growing regions — Gansu, Sichuan, Anhui, Zhejiang, Hebei, Liaoning and Guangdong — plus graded finished-goods warehouses at our Pingliang, Gansu facility.
Can herbs be traced back to their storage and source?
Yes. Our ERP links each lot to its source region and warehouse, so any batch is traceable from finished storage back to origin.
