Cutting-edge technology and strict quality control are key to preserving the maximum amount of bioactive compounds in deer velvet. The process begins with gentle lyophilization (freeze-drying) at extremely low temperatures in a vacuum, which removes water without damaging sensitive biological structures. Each batch then undergoes thorough quality control to ensure the purity, safety, and full bioactive potential of this exceptional natural substance.
Velvet Processing: From New Zealand Pastures to the Pure Essence of Natural Vitality
In an era when the quality of ingredients and their processing methods are key criteria for selecting dietary supplements, New Zealand deer velvet stands out with its unique origin and precise processing. Let's explore the fascinating process that preserves its natural power – from New Zealand pastures to the premium products of Roanga Planet.
Natural Wonder Captured at Its Best
Deer velvet antler is among the fastest growing tissues in the animal kingdom – growing at a rate of up to 2 cm per day and containing a complex spectrum of bioactive compounds. This extraordinary natural substance forms the foundation of several Roanga Planet products, where it is preserved in its purest form – exactly as nature created it.
"Our philosophy is maximum respect for natural processes. We don't want to change nature, but preserve its perfection in the purest form possible."
Ethical Harvesting: Respect for Nature and Animals
The quality of velvet begins with its origin. On selected farms in New Zealand, in pristine natural environments, deer are raised in free-range conditions without the use of growth hormones or antibiotics.
Key principles of ethical harvesting include:
- Raising deer in open environments with natural grazing
- Collecting antlers only at the optimal growth phase with the highest concentration of bioactive compounds
- Gentle process under veterinary supervision using local anesthesia
- Strict adherence to New Zealand's animal welfare standards – among the most stringent in the world
This approach ensures that the harvesting of premium deer velvet is not only humane and sustainable but also fully respectful of the natural needs of the animals.
Modern Technology Preserving Natural Power
The collection itself is just the beginning. The real key to preserving value is the deer velvet processing method. Roanga Planet uses techniques that maintain the complete bioactive profile of the velvet.
1. Immediate Cooling
Immediately after collection, the antler is rapidly cooled to prevent degradation of sensitive compounds.
2. Lyophilization – Freeze Drying
The gentlest preservation method, ensuring the highest quality of biological materials:
- Takes place in a vacuum at extremely low temperatures
- Removes water without damaging the structure of compounds
- Preserves the entire spectrum of bioactive components including:
- Growth factors
- Collagen and amino acids
- Minerals, enzymes, and other micronutrients
3. Precision Grinding and Quality Control
The lyophilized velvet is processed into a fine powder while minimizing heating and oxidation. Each batch undergoes rigorous laboratory testing:
- Verification of purity and microbiological safety
- Control of active compound content
- Testing for the presence of unwanted contaminants
Only then is it released for use in Roanga Planet products.
Authentic Essence of Natural Vitality
The result is a raw material that retains its natural complexity and purity. In several Roanga Planet products, deer velvet represents an iconic ingredient, a symbol of the connection between nature, tradition, and modern science.
Our goal is to preserve the entire spectrum of bioactive compounds in their original, complementary form – exactly as created by nature.
Roanga Planet: Premium Quality of New Zealand Deer Velvet
Roanga Planet products are not just ordinary dietary supplements with deer velvet. They are an expression of respect for natural processes, the tradition of New Zealand deer farming, and modern scientific methods that together bring the best of pure nature directly to you.
