Why Cranberry Extract? Essential B2B Procurement Guide
Cranberry extract has grown beyond its reputation as a urinary health supplement. In the B2B landscape, it's become a sought-after ingredient in dietary supplements, functional foods, pet products, and even cosmetics. For bulk buyers and brand formulators, understanding what sets high-quality cranberry extract apart is key to making informed procurement decisions.
What Is Cranberry Extract?
Cranberry extract is derived from the Vaccinium macrocarpon fruit, concentrated to preserve its most potent compounds—especially proanthocyanidins (PACs), flavonoids, and organic acids. These bioactives are responsible for cranberries’ powerful antioxidant and anti-adhesion properties, supporting urinary tract health and more.
Wellgreen offers cranberry extract powder standardized for PACs, available in water-soluble and fat-soluble forms to meet the diverse needs of formulation.
Why B2B Buyers Choose Cranberry Extract
- Proven Functional Benefits
Urinary Tract Health: PACs prevent E. coli from adhering to urinary tract walls.
Antioxidant Support: Flavonoids fight free radicals, supporting cellular health.
Oral & Gut Health: Anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial actions show potential beyond UTIs.
- Versatile Applications
Cranberry extract is used in:
Capsules, tablets, and gummies
Functional beverages and powders
Pet supplements (especially for urinary health in cats and dogs)
Skincare products (thanks to anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects)
- Market Demand and Consumer Trust
Consumers strongly associate cranberries with natural urinary support. According to a 2024 Nutrition Business Journal report, cranberry-based supplements remain among the top five bestsellers in the women’s health category globally.
