Is this green-plum-concrete food-grade, and is there a FEMA GRAS number?
Green-plum concrete is intended for food/beverage souring and flavour use in China as an ordinary food raw material (medicine-food dual-use, i.e. smoked Chinese dark plum), and for export under general food-flavour frameworks. No FEMA GRAS number for the concrete; individual plum volatiles carry their own FEMA numbers.Top supplies documented lots and the food-use citation; the buyer confirms the exact food category and market eligibility. The buyer confirms the exact food category and market eligibility with their own compliance team.

Can buyers audit or visit your facility?
Yes. Top welcomes factory audits and visits (virtual or on-site) for qualified B2B buyers — covering the processing line, QC lab, packaging and traceability.We can show the raw-material sourcing and the Q/XXXX conformance documentation. Audit requests should be made in advance so we prepare the line, documents and (where needed) an NDA.A successful audit builds the basis for an LTA and better pricing.
How is green-plum-concrete produced?
Top uses aqueous or aqueous-ethanol extraction of the fruit, followed by concentration to a concrete/paste. Top documents the process and the yield.Top controls the organic-acid and aroma profile through the source fruit and the concentration step.
What export documents and customs support do you provide?
Top issues the full export set: commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin, bill of lading / airway bill, COA (Q/XXXX conformance stated), assay report, MSDS/SDS, and health / phytosanitary certificate (on request). We prepare documents to meet your customs format and HS code, and reference Q/XXXX and the product standards as the basis.If your market needs extra certificates, tell Top in advance. We cooperate with your broker for smooth clearance.
Is green-plum-concrete regulated as dangerous goods for transport?
green-plum-concrete is a low-hazard material and is not classified as dangerous goods in standard carriage regimes — low DG friction. That said, Top still issues an SDS (CLP for EU) and packs it sealed and correctly labelled; if a carrier treats it as a DG under a stricter interpretation, we declare and pack to the SDS-driven class and use qualified forwarders.We never misdeclare; the lot-specific SDS drives the transport class. Buyers should inform their broker of the material and SDS so clearance and last-mile handling are correct.
Can you customize specifications or provide OEM / private-label?
Yes. Top supports customization and OEM / private-label:Grade — standard vs a defined target gradeSupply at a defined concentration for easier handlingPrivate-label with your artwork and documentsDevelop a dedicated lot to Q/XXXX or your spec.MOQ and lead time depend on customization; tell us the target grade, pack size and volume and we will quote. All customized lots still ship with COA plus assay plus MSDS.
