Hawthorn Flower in Bulk — EU Suppliers of Crataegus monogyna

Dried hawthorn flowering tops — the leafy flowering shoots of Crataegus monogyna and Crataegus laevigata — are the part of the plant described in the European Pharmacopoeia monograph and used in herbal teas and food-supplement formulations. The active fraction sits in the flavonoids: hyperoside, vitexin and its derivatives, and rutin, with oligomeric procyanidins important for standardized extracts. Buyers running pharmacopoeial-grade extraction need both unambiguous botanical authentication and a quantified flavonoid profile per lot.

TANDOR looks for bulk hawthorn flower harvested under GACP from wild collection and cultivated plots in Romania, and asks suppliers to state the flavonoid content per lot. Material is air-dried at controlled temperature to preserve the flavonoid content, sieved and de-stemmed to meet the cut-size customers specify for tea bags, capsule fills, or extraction feedstock. Documentation covers botanical identification including macroscopic and TLC verification, flavonoid content expressed as hyperoside or rutin equivalent depending on the customer's reference, moisture, ash, foreign matter, heavy metals, pesticide residues, microbiological panel, and — where the supplier holds one — the organic certificate with control body identifier.

Standard packaging is 20-25 kg multi-wall paper bags with food-grade liner, palletized and stretch-wrapped for EU and international freight, with vacuum-packed options available for buyers with long onward storage windows. For extract manufacturers running standardized procyanidin or flavonoid output, suppliers can agree annual contract volumes against the new harvest, which is collected late spring through early summer in a tight three-week window. Send your specification — cut size, flavonoid target, pharmacopoeia reference, annual volume — and we come back by email with supplier offers — available lots, sample options, price and the supplier's delivery terms.
