Tangerine Peel Wholesale buying guide
This buying guide is written for importers, herbal tea brands, botanical ingredient buyers and trading companies comparing tangerine peel specifications from China.
Available specifications
Tangerine Peel can be discussed in forms such as whole 3-petal peel, cut strips (1.5–3 mm), tea bag cut (tbc 1–3 mm), coarse pieces, fine botanical powder. Buyers should confirm cut size, grade, color, moisture expectations, packaging style and destination country before asking for a final quotation.
Quality checklist
Check appearance, odor, dryness, foreign matter, broken rate, uniformity and packing condition. For larger orders, third-party testing or pre-shipment inspection can be arranged upon request.
Sample and MOQ
Sample availability depends on season and specification. MOQ from 1 kg is available for many starter products; larger MOQ is discussed based on grade, packaging and whether the buyer needs a single product order or mixed order with other Chinese herbs.
How to buy Tangerine Peel from Bozhou
Start by sending the target product name, Chinese name if available, expected quantity, destination country and required form. Bozhou sourcing is useful because multiple grades may be available in the market. A clear inquiry helps compare the correct material instead of only comparing the cheapest price.
For B2B buyers, the best process is sample confirmation, written specification, bulk quotation, packaging confirmation, inspection arrangement and shipment discussion. If the product will be used as herbal tea ingredient, botanical raw material or further processing ingredient, the buyer should also confirm local import and labeling requirements.
Common buyer questions
Buyers often ask whether the product can be supplied in cartons, woven bags or custom packing. They also ask whether documents such as COA, certificate of origin or phytosanitary documents can be arranged. These requirements should be discussed before order confirmation because they may affect cost and lead time.
Applications are subject to local regulations. We describe products as raw botanical materials, herbal tea ingredients or traditional herbal product materials, and avoid unsupported medical claims.
Packaging and shipment planning
Before confirming a bulk order, buyers should decide whether they need standard export cartons, woven bags, inner plastic lining, vacuum packing or custom labels. Packaging affects loading volume, moisture protection and final landed cost. If the product will be repacked by the importer, bulk packaging may be enough. If the product will be sold as a tea ingredient or ingredient for further blending, cleaner selected material and stronger packaging may be worth the extra cost.
Why work with a Bozhou-based sourcing partner
A Bozhou-based sourcing partner can help compare available grades, check whether the current season is suitable for buying, and source related products for mixed orders. This is important for buyers building a long-term Chinese herb supply chain rather than making a one-time purchase. Clear communication, written specifications, sample records and pre-shipment checks make repeat orders easier and reduce misunderstanding between buyer and supplier.
Long-term supply planning
For repeat purchasing, buyers should record approved sample photos, packing details, grade notes, acceptable moisture range, preferred cut size and document requirements. These records help the supplier quote the same standard next time and help the buyer compare price changes fairly. Seasonal herbs may change in appearance and price, so long-term buyers should ask for updated photos and sample confirmation when switching harvest lots. A stable sourcing workflow improves consistency, reduces dispute risk and supports stronger cooperation between overseas buyers and a Bozhou-based Chinese herb supplier.
Next step for buyers
When you are ready to compare quotations, prepare a short inquiry with the product name, required specification, estimated quantity, destination country, packing preference and any document requirements. This makes it easier to check the correct grade and respond with a useful quotation instead of a general market price.
Tangerine peel sourcing notes for importers
Tangerine peel (Citrus reticulata, Chen Pi, 陈皮) buyers should confirm citrus variety, aging tier, commercial cut style, moisture level, volatile oil aroma and foreign matter limits before comparing quotations. The product gallery presents a verified dried peel overview followed by close detail texture of essential oil glands, bulk commercial display and herbal tea water infusion reference views so importers can inspect botanical quality without confusion.
Processing forms and inspection
Discuss whole three-petal dried peel (大三瓣整皮), machine-cut uniform strips (陈皮丝, 1.5–3 mm), tea bag cut (TBC 1–3 mm sifted flakes for automated packaging machinery), coarse pieces or fine botanical powder on request. Key quality inspection points include rich citrus essential oil aroma (limonene), controlled moisture (≤ 12.0–13.0%), natural unbleached orange-brown to deep aged hue, high density of translucent oil glands, sulfur-free hot-air dehydration verification, absence of mold, insect damage or foreign matter.
Packing and documentation
Packing should protect dried citrus peel from moisture absorption, volatile aroma loss and breakage during storage and ocean transit. Standard bulk options include 10–15 kg heavy-duty 5-ply corrugated export cartons with food-grade double polyethylene (PE) moisture-barrier liners or 25–50 kg woven outer bags; vacuum poly packaging can also be arranged for cut strips. Buyers can discuss shipping marks, COA, certificate of origin, phytosanitary certificate and destination-country import documentation before order confirmation.
