Inside Rawess
Eight thousand square meters,
zero shortcuts.
From a 90-square-meter lab above a tea warehouse to a consolidated extraction, synthesis and QC campus — here is what happens inside.
01 — The campus
Three disciplines,
one roof.
Rawess consolidated extraction, synthesis and quality control into a single 8,000-square-meter facility in 2023. Botanical actives come in as raw plant material and leave as quantified powder; peptides are built from amino-acid building blocks on solid-phase lines we run ourselves.
The analytical suite sits at the center of the floor plan on purpose — no batch can walk past the lab without stopping at it. Fourteen instruments, from HPLC and GC to ICP-MS, are calibration-logged and audited annually.
Clean-room grade handling, climate-controlled storage and a dedicated allergen-segregated area keep cross-contamination risk where it belongs: near zero.
02 — Batch flow
Every batch earns
its way out.
Raw material is quarantined on arrival; identity and purity are confirmed before a batch is even booked.
Assay with full impurity profile, heavy metals by ICP-MS, and a complete microbiological panel.
Analyst and reviewer reconcile independently. No single person can release a batch — ever.
A batch-specific COA, MSDS and retained sample travel with every lot — for traceability, not theater.
03 — Rotterdam
Bonded stock,
dock-side EU.
A bonded warehouse in Rotterdam keeps fast-moving grades physically inside the EU. Customs clearance takes days, not weeks, and temperature-logged shipping is standard for heat-sensitive actives.
Ship FOB Ningbo, CIF, or DDP from Rotterdam — whichever your logistics chain finds easiest. The invoice and the COA leave the building at the same moment the drum does.

Send the sample to your own lab — we encourage it.
