Five Core Functional Benefits

Our extract has a concentrated bioactives profile that allows its use in several industries. The concentration of capsaicin offers significant physiological benefits that meet certain commercial needs.

Natural Food Flavouring Enhancement: The powder offers a constant, moderate spicy taste for food manufacturing, without the fluctuation of raw peppers. Consistent heat levels in sauces, spices and snack formulations can be achieved while minimising inventory management.

Metabolic Thermogenesis Support: Capsaicin helps generate heat in the body, speeding up the breakdown of fats and burning calories. This mechanism makes our extract a valuable component for weight management supplement formulations that target thermogenic pathways.

Peripheral Circulation Boost: It helps improve blood flow to the extremities, supporting those with cold limbs and poor circulation. This characteristic is ideal for cardiovascular health goods and warming beverage applications.

Joint Comfort Support: Helps relieve mild joint aches and discomfort when used regularly. It's anti-inflammatory effects make it an ideal ingredient in long-term joint care supplements for active people

Topical Warming Effect: The extract gives warming feeling to skin tissue when included in cosmetic formulations. This property is important for thermal body care products, muscular relaxation creams and anti-cellulite therapies.

Packaging and Storage Guidelines

Standard packaging is 25kg light-proof drums of fibre and double layer food grade polyethylene bags. This structure shields the powder from light and moisture during transportation and storage.

Store the extract in a dry and cold place, away from direct sunlight and heat sources. The activity of capsaicin is destroyed by time, light and high temperature. The product remains 100% effective for 24 months from the date of manufacture when stored properly.

Our staff can build solutions to meet your specialised packaging requirements or alternate container sizes to complement your inventory management systems and downstream processing equipment.

FAQ

Q: What is the difference between your extract and generic chilli powder?

A: Generic chili powder contains whole ground peppers with variable capsaicin levels and short shelf life. Our solution is concentrated by selective extraction to the exact specification of 1% active substance, stripping fibre and moisture to offer 10-15 times the potency per gram. The standardisation guarantees uniformity between batches, which is a vital factor in the creation of supplements and industrial food production.

Q: How do you stabilise the capsaicin content?

A: We apply low temperature ethanol extraction and membrane purification technologies. Each batch is tested by HPLC before release and fluctuation of capsaicin is controlled within ±0.08%. This analytical rigour removes the variability of agricultural raw materials and provides you with dosage precision you can count on.

Q: What happens if the storage conditions are not optimal?

A: Capsaicin is sensitive to light, heat and moisture. Bad storage might affect the potency and shelf life of the spice. Bioactivity is retained in cool, dry, dark warehouses in well sealed containers. Under regular storage conditions, the product retains the entire 24 months' shelf life with insignificant compound deterioration.

Q: Is the powder suitable for use in both food and cosmetic applications?

A: Yes. The extract meets the specifications of food additives for use in cooking and the standards of cosmetic raw materials for use in a topical application. But the formulation pH, concentration limits and labelling standards vary between groups. Our technical team provides application-specific information to help you meet regulations in your target market.
