Before I proceed to my results, I should mention what I have not
included. Based on the phrasing of your question, I assume that you
are not interested in the names of companies that manufacture the
chemical itself. Moreover, you have indicated that you are interested
in manufacturers who use this ingredient, which is made from the roots
and stumps of larch trees. Thus, I also assume that you are not
interested in products made from undifferentiated larch tree extract,
or the extract of other plants that contain, among other things,
taxifolin. Taxifolin is contained in milk thistle, citrus, and other
plant substances, and so a list of all products that incidentally
contained taxifolin would be very difficult, if not impossible, to
compile. (There are certain products derived from such plant
substances, like Pycnogenol, that advertise or are well-known to
contain a non-trivial amount of taxifolin. If you need a list of such
products and manufacturers, please let me know and I will do follow-up
research in order to post a supplement to this answer.)
I have found five manufacturers that use taxifolin as an ingredient in
one or more products. I will list the manufacturer, product(s), and a
link to further information for each of the five.

I was surprised to find only five companies that use taxifolin as an
ingredient in their products. This small number might result from the
fact that taxifolin is present in undifferentiated extracts, as
explained above. However, it is possible that more companies will use
taxifolin as an ingredient in the near future, as is hinted by the
following article:
"Sweeter Than Honey?..." (Nov. 5, 1998)

As I noted earlier, I would be happy to do some follow-up research, if
you believe it is necessary. In any event, I hope that the
information I have provided is useful to you.
