Pure Folic Acid Powder

Pure Folic Acid Powder - High-Purity Vitamin B9 Supplement for Nutraceutical Manufacturing

Xi'an Le-Nutra Ingredients Inc specializes in supplying Pure Folic Acid Powder with a purity level ≥98.0% verified by HPLC, manufactured in our 60,000㎡ GMP-compliant production facility. We have over 14 years of experience in processing nutritional ingredients and an annual capacity of 3,000 tonnes. We produce pharmaceutical-grade crystalline folic acid with uniform crystal structure and batch-to-batch consistency that meet all ISO, FDA and Kosher criteria. Using our state-of-the-art recrystallisation purification technique, we guarantee low heavy metal contamination (Pb<10ppm, As<2ppm) and stringent microbiological control (TPC≤1000 CFU/g) to enable reliable supply for prenatal supplements, fortified foods and multivitamin formulations worldwide.

What is Folic Acid and Why Purity Matters

Folic acid (Vitamin B9 or Pteroylglutamic Acid, CAS No. 59-30-3) is an essential water soluble nutrient that is required for a number of biological processes. It is a yellow-orange, crystalline powder. It is mildly soluble in water, but more soluble in alkaline solutions.

The purity level will have a direct effect on the stability and bio-availability of the product. Low-grade folic acid sometimes contains residual solvents, breakdown by-products or inconsistent particle sizes that interfere with tableting machinery and complex compositions. The product at ≥98.0% assay causes less interaction with other active ingredients and a lower failure rate of quality inspection, which helps supplement manufacturers for large-scale continuous production.

Technical Specifications and Quality Parameters

Core Advantages for Supplement Manufacturers

​​​​​​​Our Pure Folic Acid Powder gives you three important benefits to help you overcome common manufacturing obstacles. First, the solid crystalline structure slows photodegradation to a significant degree, increasing formulation shelf life even in transparent packaging. Secondly, the high purity means it interferes less with other substances when you combine it in compound formulae. This is especially essential when combining it with iron, calcium or other minerals, such as in prenatal supplements.​​​​​​​

Third, uniform batch content decreases completed product inspection failure rates. A lot of manufacturers have problems with content homogeneity when they source from several vendors. We have a high technology quality control system, competent testing labs and complete batch traceability to ensure that each shipment matches your exact standards.

The regulated particle size distribution leads to smooth tableting and capsule filling and reduced machine wear and production downtime.

Application Scenarios and Formulation Guidance

Our folic acid can be included by your manufacturing team into a large range of product types. It works really well in prenatal nutrition capsules where it works synergistically with iron and DHA for maternal health support. This is good for multivitamin pills as it is compatible with B-complex vitamins and antioxidants.

Iron-folic acid compound solid beverage is an emerging market category, particularly in developing countries with nutritional inadequacies. The solubility characteristic of the powder makes it appropriate for fortification of beverage products when buffered to an alkaline pH. Its stability and uniform flowability make it ideal for automated blending systems in daily nutritional premix applications.

We can tune the fineness of the particulate to your specific tableting and filling production equipment. Whatever your operation, whether it's high speed compression machines or encapsulation lines, we will tailor the powder properties to your needs.

FAQ

Q: What is the primary application for your product?

A: Our powder is used in prenatal nutrition capsules, multivitamin tablets, iron-folic acid compound solid beverages and daily nutritious premix formulations. We may also tailor the fineness of the particles according to your needs for the production of tablets and fillers. This allows us to integrate the product perfectly into your production equipment.

Q: What makes your folic acid different from standard suppliers?

A: The stable crystal structure significantly retards the light-induced deterioration, which extends the shelf life of the product. High purity means less interaction with other ingredients in compound formulae, especially important in complicated multivitamin blends. Uniformity of the batch content reduces the percentage of final products failing inspection, facilitating a large-scale continuous manufacturing with minimum quality control problems.

Q: How long is your lead time on orders?

A: For inventory goods, we ship within 3-5 days after the order is confirmed. For bulk orders or high purity custom specifications, the manufacture and quality check usually takes 10-12 days. We keep you up to date throughout the process, giving you with updates on the status of manufacturing and projected delivery dates.

Q: Do you have regulatory paperwork for overseas markets?

A: Yes, we supply all documents including FDA registration, ISO certificates, GMP compliance, Kosher certification, COA (Certificate of Analysis), TDS (Technical Data Sheet), MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet) and full heavy metal and microbiological test results. If your regulatory requirements need additional verification we can also coordinate third party testing.

Q: How do we store the powder after opening?

A: When you are finished using the container, close it up tight and keep it in a cool, dry warehouse away from direct sunlight. It is light-proof to avoid fading of colour and loss of active ingredients in storage. The hermetic conditions in which the material is kept prevent moisture absorption that can compromise flowability and stability. When stored correctly, the powder has a shelf life of 24 months.
