Black Pepper Extract Powder (Water-Soluble | Liposomal Type | ≥4% Piperine HPLC)
Black Pepper Extract Powder (Latin name: Piperis Nigri Fructus Extractum; CAS#: 94-62-2) is a premium water-soluble functional ingredient engineered for global B2B partners in the dietary supplement, functional food, beverage, and nutraceutical industries. It is extracted from the dried fruits of Piper nigrum L. (black pepper) via advanced supercritical CO₂ extraction and water-solubilization technology , concentrating piperine – its core bioactive compound.
Our Black Pepper Extract Powder features ≥4.0% piperine purity (HPLC-verified), with no artificial additives, fillers, or preservatives. The specialized water-soluble formulation ensures rapid dissolution in water to form a stable suspension, retaining bioactivity across diverse processing conditions (pH 3.5-9.5, heat up to 130℃ for short periods). As a globally recognized herbal extract, it aligns with consumer demand for natural, plant-based wellness ingredients that support bioavailability enhancement.
What Makes This Black Pepper Extract Different?
Most black pepper extracts on the market are oil-soluble or poorly dispersible, which limits their application in beverages and liquid formulations.
Our version solves that problem.
This is a water-dispersible (liposomal-enhanced) black pepper extract, specifically engineered for modern formulations where:
Clear beverages
Functional drinks
Liquid supplements
Gummies & soft systems
require uniform dispersion, stability, and bioavailability
Proven Wellness Benefits
Supports healthy nutrient absorption and bioavailability of other ingredients.
Aids in maintaining healthy digestive comfort and gut function.
Promotes healthy antioxidant defense and cellular protection.
Enhances nutritional support for metabolic balance.
Contributes to a healthy inflammatory response within normal ranges.

- Improves absorption efficiency
- Protects active compounds during processing
👉 Result: Up to 3–5x better formulation compatibility vs conventional black pepper extract
Black Pepper Extract vs Piperine vs Raw Pepper Powder
| Type | Piperine Level | Solubility | Application | Limitation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Raw Black Pepper Powder | 2–5% | ❌ Insoluble | Food seasoning | No standardization |
| Standard Extract (10:1 / 20:1) | Low | ❌ Poor | Basic supplements | Weak functionality |
| High-Purity Piperine (95–98%) | Very High | ❌ Oil-soluble | Capsules only | Not beverage-friendly |
