The principal raw materials of Guozhen Pine Pollen and Bamboo Leaf Essence serial products all come from China.

Guozhen Pine Pollen is processed from pollens of Chinese Pinus Massoniana Lamb. and Pinus Tabulaeformis Carr. Chinese Pinus Massoniana Lamb. is a unique indigenous species of pine tree in China, which enjoys an exceptional advantage in terms of resource availability . The areas in which it mostly grows range from Huai River and Tsinling Mountains in the north, to southern parts of Guangdong and Guangxi in the south, southeast coastline and Taiwan in the east, and central parts of Guizhou and Sichuan in the west, covering 17 provinces (autonomous regions) . It can be found in more than a half part of China, with the total resource in the area south to Huai River and Tsinling Mountains alone exceeding 20,000,000 hectares .

Chinese Pinus Massoniana Lamb. blooms in the spring every year. Each male cone produces about 157 , 600 pollen particles. Each sprout produces 0.61g pollen on average,each square meter of tree crown 90.68g , and each hectare of plantation 755.7kg. Therefore, it is estimated that the annual yield of pollen from it alone could exceed 1 , 500,000 tons in China. Furthermore, in about 10 provinces in North China, another species, Pinus Tabulaeformis Carr. also produces edible pollens, whose plantation covers 20 million hectares .Thus, the high yield of pine pollen is definitely unquestionable.

The raw materials of Guozhen Pine Pollen are mainly collected from Qiandao Lake, or Thousand-island Lake, in Zhejiang province of China and hill areas at altitude below 1500m, where few people reside and are far from various sources of pollution, such as cities, highways and pesticides. Qiandao Lake, with an area of 580 square kilometers and 94.7% forest coverage , top level air quality and naturally pure water , ranks as the first class national water resource reserve. The pine pollen produced in this naturally clean environment is thus free of pollution.

Bamboo is one of the most valuable plants on the earth. There are over 70 genera, 1200 species of bamboo all over the world. The total plantation area of bamboo is about 20 million hectares. China has always been known as "the Kingdom of Bamboo" for its rich bamboo resource and a long history of bamboo culture. There are over 40 genera, over 400 species and about 4 million hectares of bamboo plantation in China. As an important part of forest resource, bamboos are valuable not only for their high economic value, but also for their extensive ecological and social benefits.

The raw material of Guozhen Bamboo Leaf Essence is the Bamboo (Phyllostachys glauca McClure) Leaf growing in Anji, Zhejiang province. Anji, known as the "Hometown of Bamboo in China", lies in the northwest of Zhejiang, with over 65,000 hectares of bamboo forest. With picturesque scenery, forest coverage of this area is almost 70%, and its air quality tops the national standards . The well-protected ecological environment and unique scenery of bamboo forest make this place famous all over the world . Besides the fame as "Hometown of Bamboo", it is also figuratively called "the back garden of the metropolitans".
