What is Rice Bran Ceramide
Rice Bran Ceramide is a natural plant-derived ceramide extracted from non-GMO rice bran, widely applied in cosmetics, health foods and pharmaceuticals.
Main components of Rice Bran Ceramide
Rice bran ceramide is a complex of sphingolipid compounds, mainly composed of the following core components:
1. Ceramides: The core active ingredient, with a structure highly similar to human skin ceramides. It is the primary component responsible for skin barrier repair and moisturizing effects.
2. Glycosphingolipids: Ceramide derivatives with sugar groups, featuring excellent water solubility and emulsifying properties. They help improve product stability in water-based systems.
3. Sphingophospholipids: Sphingolipids containing phosphate groups, with good interfacial activity. They can serve as emulsifiers and stabilizers in cosmetics and food formulations.
What are the benefits of Rice Bran Ceramide
Rice bran ceramide is a versatile active ingredient with diverse physiological functions, featuring the following core advantages:
Core Cosmetic & Skin Care Benefits
1. Skin Barrier Repair
As an essential part of stratum corneum intercellular lipids, it repairs damaged skin barriers, reduces transepidermal water loss and enhances skin tolerance against external irritants.
2. Long-lasting Hydration
It effectively locks skin moisture, boosts skin hydration, leaving skin smooth, tender and elastic, delivering prominent moisturizing effects on mature skin.
3. Antioxidation & Anti-aging
It eliminates free radicals, alleviates oxidative skin damage, delays aging and fades fine lines and wrinkles.
4. Brightening & Even Tone
It inhibits tyrosinase activity and melanin formation, relieves skin dullness and balances uneven complexion.
5. Sensitive Skin Soothing
With anti-inflammatory properties, it calms redness, itchiness and skin sensitivity, ideal for sensitive skin care.
Health Food Physiological Functions
1. Nerve Protection
Supports normal nerve cell activity, improves cognition and eases mental fatigue.
2. Cardiovascular Care
Regulates blood lipid metabolism, lowers cholesterol absorption and protects cardiovascular health.
3. Immune Modulation
Optimizes bodily immune response and strengthens physical resistance.
4. Gastrointestinal Protection
Shields gastric mucosa, repairs intestinal barriers and improves gastrointestinal health.
1. Strict Raw Material Selection
For rice bran ceramide and other related products, we directly source fresh rice bran from original producing areas as raw materials for extraction, strictly controlling raw material quality from the very first step.
2. Full-process Production Supervision
Every production procedure including extraction, concentration and refining is fully documented with standardized process control points. We conduct rigorous testing on semi-finished products during processing to guarantee stable intermediate quality.
3. Dual Standard Finished Product Testing
We independently complete core index tests such as content and moisture content for finished products. Meanwhile, we send samples to authoritative third-party institutions for testing of heavy metals, microorganisms and other safety indicators.
4. Delivery Standards
All products can only be arranged for delivery after passing all quality inspection items and reaching full compliance with relevant standards.
Applications of Rice Bran Ceramide
With excellent safety, good biocompatibility and multiple functional properties, rice bran ceramide is widely applied across multiple industries.
2. Cosmetics & Personal Care
Ideal ingredient for barrier repair, moisturizing, anti-aging and sensitive skincare items, also applicable to body care, hair care and lip care products.
3. Health Food & Dietary Supplements
Widely used in functional foods and nutritional supplements for brain health, cardiovascular maintenance, immunity improvement and gastrointestinal conditioning.
4. Pharmaceutical Industry
Suitable for external skin preparations and oral healthcare medicines, also serves as auxiliary raw material to boost drug bioavailability.

Rice Bran Ceramide Origin & Resource Advantage
China is the world’s largest producer of rice bran, laying a solid raw material foundation for the production of high-quality rice bran ceramide. Rice has been cultivated in Ankang City, Shaanxi Province for over a thousand years, and the local rice bran, as the core raw material for rice bran ceramide extraction, can adapt well to the local climatic and soil conditions, ensuring stable raw material quality.
In recent years, the standardized planting area of rice in Ankang City has maintained a stable growth, with an annual output of fresh rice exceeding 1.5 million tons, and the annual output of rice bran available for ceramide extraction reaching more than 150,000 tons, providing sufficient raw material supply for the large-scale production of rice bran ceramide.
Ankang City, located in the Qinba Mountains, is the dominant rice planting area in Shaanxi Province and one of the first cities in China to develop the rice bran deep processing industry, including rice bran ceramide extraction. At the same time, Ankang is one of the rare selenium-rich regions in China, known as the “Selenium Valley of China”.
According to the data, Ankang has the largest selenium-rich area in China, with 81.87% of the city’s soil area being selenium-rich. The selenium-rich stratum is the thickest, with a thickness of 40 ~ 50m and a length of 400 ~ 500km. The selenium concentration is moderate and suitable for development and utilization, with an average soil selenium content of 0.5677mg/kg. The selenium content in the rice bran used for ceramide extraction is 0.42 ~ 0.91mg/kg, belonging to the world’s rare soil selenium-rich region that is easy to be absorbed by plants, which endows the rice bran ceramide with unique nutritional advantages.
