Description
Beta-Carotene Powder 1% is a cold-water-dispersible dry form of provitamin A beta-carotene. The carotenoid is microencapsulated within a protective matrix, producing an orange-yellow, free-flowing powder that disperses evenly in water and blends uniformly into dry mixes. Beta-carotene serves a double duty: it provides vitamin A activity, supporting vision, skin and immune health, and it colors foods and beverages with natural yellow-orange shades. The 1% standardization is designed for gentle, precise fortification and color adjustment in products where subtle dosing control matters. Produced under strict purity and microbiological controls, it is a dependable, versatile beta-carotene source for food, beverage and supplement manufacturers worldwide. It handles cleanly in automated dry-blending equipment. The powder passes 40 mesh for even dispersion in dry mixes. Its gentle concentration makes it the preferred grade for infant foods and subtle color adjustment. In practice the gentle concentration lets food developers adjust yellow-orange shades in fine steps, and its dispersion in water makes dry-blend fortification straightforward. It suits infant foods where subtle color is preferred. Consistent batch-to-batch quality is maintained through defined raw-material sourcing and in-process control, protecting formula stability for industrial buyers. How the 1% powder works: the low concentration gives formulators fine-grained control over yellow-orange color and vitamin A content, ideal for products where overshooting color would look artificial. The microencapsulated powder disperses in cold water and blends uniformly in dry mixes, protected from oxidation. Practical guidance: adjust color in infant foods and subtle formulations; fortify bakery, dairy and powdered beverages; blend into supplement premixes; and use it in sauces and instant foods. Quality assurance: produced under strict heavy-metal and microbiological controls with assay and particle size tested per batch, documented for buyers. For precise, gentle fortification, the 1% grade is the fine-control standard. Specification highlights: it is packed in 20kg/drum with a minimum order quantity of 100kg. Certificates of analysis accompany every shipment, and sample supply, specification customization and flexible payment terms are available for qualified buyers, supported by the standardized seven-step service process from inquiry to after-sales support. Quality system overview: production follows the food-grade or pharmacopeia standards listed in the specification, with defined raw-material sourcing, in-process checks and final release testing on every batch. Purity, heavy-metal and microbiological results are documented, and the complete dossier - specification, certificate of analysis and batch records - is available to support buyer audits and regulatory dossiers. Original packaging is maintained through storage and shipping to protect the product, and shelf life is stated on the specification. Buyers qualify once and rely on the same documented quality for every subsequent order.
Applications
It fortifies and colors infant foods, dairy products, bakery and powdered beverages with vitamin A and natural yellow-orange tones. Supplement makers use it in multivitamin tablets, capsules and drink powders, and sauces, instant noodles and snack foods use it for appetizing color. Clinical nutrition uses it in enteral powders for provitamin A supply.
Advantages
The 1% grade gives formulators fine control over both color and vitamin A content, ideal for products where overshooting color would look artificial. Its cold-water dispersibility makes dry blending and reconstitution trouble-free. Strict contaminant controls and dependable supply make it a safe, flexible standard for fortification and natural coloring.
