Spirulina Extract Phycocyanin E18

Spirulina Extract Phycocyanin E18 is a high-concentration natural blue pigment extracted from premium Spirulina platensis. With a substantially higher phycocyanin content than standard grades, it delivers deep, saturated blue shades at smaller use levels, giving formulators stronger color impact and better cost efficiency per unit of color. The product is a vivid blue, water-soluble powder that disperses instantly into clear solutions, and its plant origin makes it the premier clean-label alternative to synthetic blue colorants. Phycocyanin also carries antioxidant activity, adding functional value beyond color. Produced under strict quality and microbiological controls from spirulina cultivated in China, it is the professional choice for brands that need powerful, natural blue color with a wellness story. The E18 grade concentrates the phycocyanin fraction for maximum color strength per gram. It is derived entirely from spirulina cultivated in China under strict quality controls. In practice a smaller dose of E18 reaches the same blue intensity as standard grades, cutting color cost per liter in high-volume beverage runs. It also deepens shades in gummies and frostings with minimal powder load. Batch records and test reports are available for every delivery, supporting buyer qualification, regulatory filing and long-term supply relationships. How Phycocyanin E18 works: the higher phycocyanin concentration of E18 delivers deeper, more saturated blue at smaller use levels, which lowers color cost per liter in high-volume production. The mechanism is the same - the water-soluble blue pigment-protein of spirulina - with the added benefit that less powder means less impact on flavor and formulation. Practical guidance: color energy drinks, flavored waters and functional shots with intense blue; build vibrant gummies and candy coatings; blend into green and purple shade systems; and use it in premium products where color intensity matters. Quality assurance: produced from spirulina cultivated in China, with phycocyanin content, moisture, heavy metals and microbiology tested per batch and documented. For high-volume beverage and confectionery brands, E18 is the professional-strength natural blue. Specification highlights: it is packed in 10kg/carton with a minimum order quantity of 50kg. 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. Documented quality from batch to batch: every production lot is verified against the full specification - identity, purity, heavy metals and microbiology - before release, and the resulting certificates and batch records travel with each shipment to support qualification and audit. Raw materials are sourced to defined standards, storage follows the conditions stated in the specification, and the product ships in its original, intact packaging. Shelf life and storage requirements are clearly documented, so purchasing, warehouse and quality teams all work from the same reference. This repeatable quality system is what makes the grade dependable for multi-year supply agreements.

Applications

It colors beverages, including energy drinks, flavored waters and functional shots, with intense natural blue. Confectionery, gummies and candy coatings use it for brilliant blue shades, and dairy desserts and frozen treats use it for striking pastel-to-vivid tones. Bakery icings, decorations and supplement products use it to differentiate with natural, plant-based color.

Advantages

The E18 concentration means less powder, stronger color and better economics than standard phycocyanin grades - a real advantage in cost-sensitive beverage and confectionery production. Its natural blue opens the door to clean-label products that synthetic blue simply cannot enter. Consistent standardization and strict controls keep shade matching reliable across production runs.
