Technical Specifications for Industrial Applications

Why Vision Care Brands Choose Our Marigold Extract?

Our approach of production is fully integrated, meaning we manage every step of the process, from growing the marigold flowers to producing the final powder. This monitoring ensures raw material uniformity not accessible from trading companies using different vendors. And you get consistent colours and strength from batch to batch.

Advanced spray drying method helps safeguard the heat sensitive lutein molecules during dehydration. The Lutein Powder produced is biologically active while removing moisture that can cause clumping during storage. Formulators like the free-flowing nature that allows easier blending with other ingredients.

We offer customisable concentrations between 5%-80% to fit your goal dose and cost needs. Lower concentrations are suitable for fortified foods and drinks; 80% grades provide high-potency capsule formulations with a limited amount of excipients.

FAQ

Q: What concentration should I select for a daily 10mg lutein dosage?

A: A 10% concentration requires 100mg powder per serving, while 20% needs only 50mg. Higher concentrations reduce capsule size and improve consumer compliance.

Q: How does particle size affect bioavailability in supplements?

A: Our 80-mesh specification (≤180 microns) ensures rapid dispersion in digestive fluids, promoting consistent absorption rates compared to coarser grades that may pass through undigested.

Q: Can the product withstand high-temperature processing?

A: Lutein degrades above 80°C. For hot-fill beverages, add powder post-pasteurization or use encapsulated versions. We provide stability data for various manufacturing conditions.

Q: What documentation supports US and EU market entry?

A: We supply comprehensive dossiers including allergen statements, GMO-free declarations, BSE/TSE certificates, and pesticide residue reports meeting FDA and EFSA requirements.

Q: How should manufacturers store bulk quantities?

A: Maintain sealed containers below 25°C in dark, dry warehouses. Avoid repeated opening that introduces moisture. Properly stored material retains 95% potency for 24 months.
