Astaxanthin Powder

Premium Astaxanthin Powder – Natural Microalgae Extract for Nutraceutical & Cosmetic Applications

Xi'an Le-Nutra Ingredients Inc. is a manufacturer of high purity Astaxanthin Powder obtained from Haematococcus Pluvialis microalgae. With 14+ years of industry experience and a 60,000㎡ GMP-certified production plant, we ensure standardised criteria of 5% and 10% astaxanthin content with HPLC testing. We have an annual production capacity of more than 3,000 tonnes with innovative supercritical CO2 extraction and microencapsulation technologies that protect bioactivity and offer excellent stability. Heavy metals are below 0.5 ppm for lead and microbiological contamination is tested on every batch with stringent quality control to fulfil FDA, ISO and Kosher compliance criteria for global nutraceutical and cosmetic formulations.

What Makes Our Natural Astaxanthin Extract Superior?

Our product is derived only from Haematococcus Pluvialis grown in pollution-free aquatic habitats. Our product has the naturally occurring (3S, 3'S) isomer, far more biologically active than synthetic products. The deep red fine powder has a remarkable antioxidant potential, being 6,000 times more potent than Vitamin C, thus it's perfect for anti-aging compositions.

Low temperature supercritical CO2 extraction technique ensures no heat destruction of delicate carotenoid structures. The resulting oleoresin is next processed through state-of-the-art microencapsulation utilising food-grade matrices, transforming the lipophilic oil into a stable powder that addresses the industry's crucial issues of oxidative instability, poor water dispersibility and handling issues on manufacturing lines.

Technical Specifications & Quality Parameters

Core Health Benefits & Functional Properties

A strong carotenoid, this carries a range of proven health benefits for your formulation needs. The unusual molecular framework allows it to cross cell membranes entirely, protecting cell structures within and outside.

Ocular Health Support: It efficiently preserves retinal and macular tissues and relieves digital eye strain after extended hours of screen exposure. This is especially useful for eye care additives aimed at the modern customer.

Advanced Skin Protection: Effectively prevents photoaging processes and helps to restore the glow of the skin by preventing UV-induced oxidative damage. It has a great potential to neutralise the free radicals created by environmental stress, thereby providing a benefit to your cosmetic formulas.

Better Joint Comfort: Anti-inflammatory effects assist minimise joint pain and support comfortable movement. This makes it a great addition to sports nutrition and joint health supplement lines.

Anti-Aging Action All-Inclusive: The component of the product collects free radicals in the whole organism, helping cell health and postponing systematic ageing processes in a molecular manner.

Diverse Application Scenarios for B2B Partners

Our Astaxanthin Powder is used in three independent high-performance applications with demanding technical specifications.

Nutraceutical Formulations: The beadlet form may resist mechanical compression and friction heat in tablet manufacturing without bursting microcapsules. This helps ensure label claim potency of your hard capsules and tablets throughout their shelf life, fulfilling pharmaceutical grade stability criteria.

Functional Beverage Development: Cold Water Dispersible (CWD) grades address the technological difficulty of achieving stable dispersion in aqueous media. You RTD drinks resist oil ring development and provide bright colour stability across a range of pH values.

Premium Cosmetic Integration: When solubilized into emulsions for anti-aging creams and serums, the powder prevents photo-degradation after skin application. This exploits its strong UV-radiation protection capabilities for high performance topical treatments.

FAQ

Q. What is the difference between natural and synthetic?

A: The natural powder from algae contains nearly solely the (3S, 3'S) isomer, which has a much higher biological activity than the racemate in synthetic products.

Q: How do I keep it stable while shipping?

A: We use vacuum sealed aluminium foil packaging with oxygen scavengers to avoid auto-oxidation of the carotenoid chain throughout the logistics process.

Q: Is the powder water-soluble?

A: Lipophilic standard formulations. But for beverage applications we have Cold Water Dispersible (CWD) grades made using special beadlet technology.

Q: Is it very fishy?

A: While raw algae carries a marine scent, our microencapsulated powder utilizes odor-masking technology to ensure compatibility with sensitive flavor profiles in food applications.

Q: What kind of documentation do you provide?

A: All batches come with a Certificate of Analysis (COA). Our facility is GMP, ISO 22000 and Organic Certified (USDA/EU) to satisfy global regulatory standards.
