Medicinal Herb Safety Control
medicinal herbs of the highest quality
With an understanding of the importance of the quality of medicinal herbs, we at Pyunkang personally select the medicinal ingredients. We check the producer and collection period of every herb to ensure that all the ingredients we use are of the highest quality.
Understanding the importance of water
We use top-quality water for the boiling of the top-quality medicinal herb. Instead of using general spring water, we use distilled water that’s been filtered for the removal of heavy metals and contaminants.
On-site decoction using the state-of-the-art equipment
We implement a strict decoction process in order to enhance the effectiveness of the medicinal herbs. Using advanced decoction equipment, we decoct the medicinal herbs at a constant level to assure their efficacy. We also implement a strict sanitation control system throughout all the processes from manufacturing to packaging.
Proven as non-toxic food products
Pyunkang-Hwan and Pyunkang-Hwan have been approved as non-toxic food products by the Microbac Laboratories Inc. registered with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Belief that every ingredient contributes to the efficacy
Pyunkang Korean Medicine Hospital uses the tip and the upper part of antlers, known to have the best efficacy, from New Zealand and Russia.
Guaranteed safety with the Medicinal Herb Tracking and Management System
The Medicinal Herb Tracking and Management System involves recording and managing the information related to the production/import, manufacture and distribution to trace-back the origin of the medicinal herb in case of problems with safety, etc. This helps identify the cause of the problem and take the necessary action to mitigate the issue.
Use of top-quality antlers
The Association of Korean Medicine has been implementing the Medicinal Herb Tracking and Management System in February 2009 starting with the tracking of deer antlers. The antlers sold in the domestic market are from New Zealand, China and Russia, and Pyunkang Korean Medicine Hospital uses the ones from Russia and New Zealand, which are known for their top quality.
Meeting patients’ expectations with top-quality products
The growth of aflatoxin, a fungus species that affect medicinal herbs, can be prevented through vacuum packaging. Pyunkang performs vacuum pacakaging of all of its products to ensure product safety. Also, we purchase from producers who have passed our strict screening test as part of our effort to deliver medicinal herbs that consumers can trust.
