Make the most of every egg—turn waste into treasure.

Between the eggshell and the egg white lies a tough membrane—the egg’s second layer of protection. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, after the egg has hatched into a chick, this membrane acquires a beautiful name: “Fenghuang Yi” or “Fenghuang Tui.” It is known for its ability to nourish yin, clear the lungs, promote wound healing, and aid in bone regeneration.

 

Membrane Extraction: "Phoenix Skin" Protects Joints and Soothes Hangovers

 

Hubei’s well-known egg enterprise—Shendi Agricultural Science and Trade Co., Ltd., located in Jingshan City—had a remarkable insight when confronted with the mountainous piles of discarded eggshells generated every day: The membrane from hatched chicks is known as “phoenix skin,” so surely membranes from unhatched eggs must have similar remarkable uses.

Relying on the research achievements of Professor Ma Meihu from Huazhong Agricultural University, Shen Di Company has gradually obtained a series of research findings and patents—starting with collaborative efforts to overcome shell membrane separation technology—culminating in the preparation of soluble eggshell membrane proteins and peptides.

By extracting active polypeptides from egg membranes, we have successfully developed products based on egg membrane collagen and chicken egg white polypeptides. The former, as a dietary supplement, can be used for joint health; while the beverage made from the latter is reportedly effective in improving metabolism and relieving hangovers while providing an energizing boost.

 

Shell Expertise: Turning Waste Shells into Fruit and Vegetable Cleaning Powder

 

Eggshells, previously used only for animal feed, have been transformed by Shendi Company into a natural fruit and vegetable cleaning powder using patented technology. Like similar cleaning products made from oyster shells abroad, this product is entirely natural and environmentally friendly. In 2023, through e-commerce sales channels, the company achieved net profitability for the first time.

 

Liquid Lysozyme: Egg White-Based Toothpaste and Mouthwash

 

Protein is also an excellent ingredient that shouldn't be overlooked. Shendi Company has extracted lysozyme from egg whites and used it to produce toothpaste and mouthwash. In addition to traditional Chinese medicine toothpastes, this innovation offers a new “Made in China” approach to toothpaste development.

As a supplier of egg liquid and fried-egg products for the 2023 Hangzhou Asian Games and a key supplier in Macao’s egg-liquid market, Shendi Company has achieved high-value utilization across the entire industrial chain through a closed-loop approach. By meticulously refining eggshells, extracting membranes, and enzymatically dissolving egg whites, the company has managed to utilize eggs “down to the last trace,” thereby boosting its economic benefits by more than tenfold and paving the way for high-quality development of the egg-source technology industry into the health-care sector.
