Optimized for New Zealand's pasture-based livestock farming models, these premium natural extracts provide direct antimicrobial benefits, improve gut microbiome balance, and enhance production output.
With the New Zealand government targeting a significant reduction in biogenic methane emissions under the Climate Change Response Act, dairy and red meat exporters must implement effective dietary strategies. Rumen modifiers derived from specific phytogenic secondary metabolites (such as terpenes, phenols, and aldehydes) have emerged as highly viable tools to selectively inhibit methanogens without compromising dry matter intake (DMI).
Pasture feed contains high levels of rapidly degradable protein. When nitrogen intake exceeds animal requirements, it is excreted, raising environmental issues. Adding natural essential oil compounds like thymol, carvacrol, and menthol helps optimize rumen peptide degradation, reducing waste and increasing metabolizable amino acid absorption.
The New Zealand dairy industry (under companies like Fonterra) relies heavily on a clean, green image. This makes chemical residues or synthetic growth promoters unacceptable in global premium markets. Natural plant essential oils and extracts serve as reliable, non-residual alternatives that satisfy international consumer preferences and organic standards.
These raw botanical ingredients are widely used as core components in customized feed rations, water-soluble solutions, and animal health products across Oceania.
By leveraging precise extraction techniques, we provide distinct ingredient classes that serve specialized functions within high-performance feed formulation and animal healthcare.
Extracted by steam distillation or cold compression, essential oils represent highly concentrated active compounds. Products like camellia, eucalyptus, oregano, and peppermint oil serve as potent natural antimicrobials that support gut health and optimize rumen microbial populations.

Phytogenic Feed Additives (PFAs) act as bio-active compounds that support animal health and performance through several distinct pathways:
Active secondary metabolites (such as those in oregano and peppermint essential oils) can selectively reduce gram-positive organisms and methanogenic archaea. This process shifts volatile fatty acid (VFA) pathways toward propionate rather than acetate, reducing energy lost as methane gas.
Polyphenols and carotenoids (like those in sea buckthorn oil) help neutralize free radicals within the animal's digestive tract, lowering systemic oxidative stress. This support is particularly valuable during transit, weaning, or summer heat stress.
Essential oils support tighter cellular junctions in the intestinal epithelium. By preventing pathogens (such as E. coli or Salmonella) from colonizing the gut wall, they improve overall nutrient absorption and feed conversion efficiency.
By slowing the deamination of dietary proteins in the rumen, phytogenic compounds help lower blood urea nitrogen (BUN) levels. This results in cleaner pastures with reduced nitrate runoff and nitrogen oxide emissions.
Founded in 2006 and located in the Jinggang Mountain High-Tech Development Zone, Ji’an, Jiangxi Province, Jiangxi Hairui Natural Plant Co., Ltd. is a leading manufacturer specializing in high-purity natural essential oils and botanical feed additives.
Our regional location provides direct access to diverse, high-quality botanical raw materials. Backed by a 50 million RMB investment and a modern 13,000-square-meter facility, our annual production capacity exceeds 2,000 tons of natural plant extracts.
Our production lines are equipped with advanced gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analyzers, high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) systems, and professional distillation equipment. This infrastructure ensures that every batch meets strict international standards for purity and quality.
We control quality from seed selection to final packaging, delivering reliable, consistent botanical extracts for global animal feed producers.
Strictly natural, safe, and scientifically backed active plant compounds. We use zero synthetic residues, artificial solvents, or unauthorized fillers.
We continually invest in QA/QC research, partnering with university laboratories to study the stability, compatibility, and bioavailability of essential oil compounds in animal diets.
Our 9-step quality protocol includes gas chromatography testing, heavy metal screening, microbiological evaluations, and trace pesticide analyses to ensure safety and quality.
Natural botanical oils are highly versatile active ingredients, offering distinct advantages across veterinary, agricultural, health, and aromatherapy applications.
Sweet orange oil acts as an effective, residue-free natural pesticide adjuvant. It helps dissolve insect cuticles, enhances leaf coverage, and promotes photosynthesis, supporting growth without chemical residues.
Castor seed oil is rich in ricinoleic acid, which helps soothe skin, protect animal hooves, and support wound recovery. It also acts as a natural barrier to prevent common environmental infections.
Evening primrose oil is rich in gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) and essential fatty acids. It is widely used in livestock and companion animal supplements to support cardiovascular wellness and vitality.
Active aromatic molecules cross the blood-brain barrier to interact with the limbic system. This natural therapy helps calm animals during transport, weaning, and regrouping, supporting better overall animal welfare.
Feed additives must comply with ACVM standards. Many natural plant essential oils are classified as GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) or fall under exempt status schedules when formulated correctly. We supply full composition profiles, active compound percentages, and safety data sheets (SDS) to support ACVM declarations.
New Zealand’s isolation requires strict biosecurity import controls. Our plant essential oils undergo steam distillation, heat treatment, and filtration, ensuring they are free from pests, viable seeds, and biological pathogens. We provide MPI-compliant phytosanitary declarations and treatment certificates.
Our facilities operate under strict quality management frameworks, ensuring consistent purity and international traceability for all export markets.
