Capabilities

Hongbaek's processing technologies and equipment

From high-content ginsenoside concentration through bioconversion, nanoliposome, and freeze drying, we talk only about technology that can be shown in documents.

Core Abilities

From design to manufacturing, and on to new materials

Our capabilities come together when these three abilities connect within one plant. We manufacture what we design, and the data from production feeds back into new material development.

01Formulation designWe plan the early stages of health functional food development, from material formulation to verification of effects on the human body and efficacy confirmation.
02Ingredient manufacturingWe have the capacity to mass-produce special materials and a range of formulation equipment, and we produce health functional food materials steadily under GMP standards.
03New ingredient developmentLed by the dedicated research department, we develop next-generation ginseng materials such as Rg3 and compound K raw materials and freeze-dried products.

Results

Two results of the three abilities

ResultWhy it matters
Ingredients with high concentrations of target componentsA core part of combined health functional foods: when several materials have to share one tablet, a material that reaches the standard content in a small amount widens the range of the design.
High-purity ingredientsA core part of meeting the market on time: high-purity purification raises the target component, so we can respond quickly to the specification a product plan calls for.

Technology

Six core technologies

01High-content ginsenoside concentration technologyThis is the concentration technology behind the freeze-dried powder with a combined Rg1 + Rb1 + Rg3 content of 100 mg/g (product manufacturing report No. 202500286918).
02Rg3 and compound K bioconversion technologyThis technology converts ginsenosides commonly found in red ginseng into the rare components Rg3 and compound K, so that we can supply these rare ginsenoside raw materials at mass-production scale.
03Nanoliposome manufacturing technologyThis formulation technology encloses a material in a fine phospholipid membrane, allowing materials with challenging physical properties to be used in various product formats.
04Natural material extraction and concentration technologyWe have extraction and concentration lines for a range of natural materials, including ginseng, and design processes around each raw material, including for toll processing.
05High-purity purification technologyOur column purification lines increase the purity of the target component. We produce both high-content and high-purity raw materials within the same plant.
06Concentration and freeze-drying equipmentWe operate high-content ginsenoside concentration equipment and freeze-drying equipment directly at the Geumsan plant.

Production Lines

From raw ginseng to processed materials: three production lines

Production space lined with stainless steel extraction and concentration equipmentExtraction and ConcentrationExtraction and concentration lineThe initial process extracts and concentrates active components from raw materials. It is the starting point for high-content materials.
Stainless steel purification tanks arranged with a hoistColumn PurificationColumn purification lineThe purification process that raises the purity of the target component in the concentrate. High-purity raw material is made here.
Corridor lined with multiple freeze-drying equipment doorsFreeze DryingFreeze-drying lineThe last process, removing only the moisture while limiting changes to the components. We operate freeze-drying equipment directly at the Geumsan plant.
