Products Description
Spirulina Powder (USP/FDA/EU Certified) – High-Protein 60%+ | Bulk Supplier for Dietary Supplements, Smoothies, Functional Foods & Pet Nutrition
Our Organic Spirulina Powder is a premium, nutrient-dense superfood derived from Arthrospira platensis-one of the most studied microalgae for its exceptional nutritional profile. Sourced from our closed-loop, freshwater cultivation facilities in Thailand (optimal climate for spirulina growth), our powder is produced under GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices) and certified to meet USP (United States Pharmacopeia), FDA (Food and Drug Administration), and EU food safety standards, ensuring uncompromised purity and consistency.
At the core of our product is its 60%+ protein content (Kjeldahl-verified)-a complete plant-based protein with all 9 essential amino acids-paired with high levels of chlorophyll (≥2.5%), phycocyanin (≥15%), and antioxidants (vitamin E, beta-carotene). We use a gentle spray-drying process (≤50°C) to preserve heat-sensitive nutrients, avoiding harsh processing that degrades spirulina's bioactive compounds.
Ideal for bulk buyers (supplement brands, functional food manufacturers, pet nutrition companies, and cosmetic formulators), we offer flexible quantities (1kg to 1000kg+), custom specifications (protein 55%–70%, particle size 80–200 mesh), and full batch traceability via QR codes. Every order includes a Certificate of Analysis (COA) with third-party lab results for protein content, heavy metals, pesticides, and microbial contaminants-guaranteeing compliance with global regulatory standards.

Product Applications
Our Spirulina Powder is a versatile superfood ingredient for industries focused on nutrition, wellness, and natural products. Below are its key applications, each optimized for performance and regulatory compliance:
1 Dietary Supplements
- Capsules & Tablets: The fine 80–120 mesh powder blends seamlessly into vegetarian/vegan capsules or compressed tablets. A 500mg dose delivers 300mg of protein-perfect for "plant protein" or "superfood" supplement lines.
- Powder Blends: Mixed with other superfoods (e.g., chlorella, wheatgrass) to create multi-nutrient "green powder" formulas. Our low-moisture (<8%) composition prevents clumping and extends shelf life.
- Liquid Tinctures: Reconstituted in water or glycerin to make liquid supplements-popular for consumers who prefer non-pill formats (e.g., children, seniors).
2 Functional Food & Beverages
- Smoothies & Shakes: Added to powdered smoothie mixes or ready-to-drink shakes for a "protein boost" label claim. The mild, earthy flavor pairs well with fruits (banana, mango) and nut milks.
- Energy Bars & Snacks: Incorporated into gluten-free or organic energy bars to enhance protein content. Our 200-mesh fine powder ensures uniform distribution without gritty texture.
- Baked Goods: Mixed into bread, muffins, or cookies (up to 5% inclusion) to add nutrients-marketed as "functional baked goods" for health-conscious consumers.
- Dairy Alternatives: Added to plant-based milks (almond, oat) or yogurts to boost protein and color-no artificial dyes needed (natural green hue from chlorophyll).
3 Pet Nutrition
- Dog/Cat Supplements: Formulated into chewable treats or powder additives for "joint health" or "immune support" pet products. Meets AAFCO (Association of American Feed Control Officials) standards for pet food ingredients.
- Aquaculture Feed: Used as a protein source in fish and shrimp feed-enhances growth rate and disease resistance in aquaculture farms.
4 Cosmetics & Personal Care
- Skin Care: Added to serums, masks, and lotions for its antioxidant properties (fights free radicals, reduces inflammation). Complies with FDA 21 CFR Part 177 for cosmetic ingredients.
- Hair Care: Incorporated into shampoos and conditioners to support scalp health-natural chlorophyll adds a subtle green tint (popular in "clean beauty" lines).

Product Case Studies
Product Success Cases
Spirulina Powder (USP/FDA/EU Certified) – High-Protein 60%+ | Bulk Supplier for Dietary Supplements, Smoothies, Functional Foods & Pet Nutrition
Case 1: US Dietary Supplement Brand – Plant-Protein Capsule Line
Challenge: A US-based supplement startup needed a high-protein spirulina powder (65% protein) to launch a "Vegan Protein Capsule" line targeting fitness enthusiasts. They required USDA Organic certification, fast sample delivery (for product testing), and compliance with FDA 21 CFR Part 184.
Solution: We provided a 50g sample (65% protein, 120 mesh) within 3 days, verified USDA Organic status, and shared a pre-production COA. For the full order (200kg), we shipped via air freight (delivered in 6 days) and included a regulatory guide for FDA label claims.
Result: The capsules launched on Amazon and Walmart.com, achieving 4.9/5 customer ratings (cited "no aftertaste" and "easy to swallow"). The brand expanded to 500+ retail stores within 12 months and now places quarterly orders of 500kg+.
Case 2: European Functional Beverage Company – Green Smoothie Mix
Challenge: A German beverage brand wanted to launch a "Superfood Green Smoothie" powder with natural color and high protein. Key requirements included EU Ecocert organic certification, low microbial counts (<10² cfu/g), and a mild flavor to avoid overpowering fruit ingredients.
Solution: We customized our spirulina to 60% protein, used a 200-mesh particle size for smooth texture, and conducted additional microbial testing (achieving TAMC <10² cfu/g). We also provided EU Novel Food compliance documents to support retail distribution.
Result: The smoothie mix launched in 1,200+ European supermarkets (Lidl, Carrefour), generating €2M in first-year sales. Consumer surveys showed 85% rated the flavor "pleasant," and the brand now uses our spirulina in 3 additional beverage products.
Case 3: Asian Pet Food Manufacturer – Senior Dog Immune Treats
Challenge: A Japanese pet food company needed a pet-safe spirulina powder (low heavy metals, AAFCO compliant) for "Senior Dog Immune Support" chews. They required a fine powder (150 mesh) for uniform blending and a 10kg initial order to test market demand.
Solution: We produced a 55% protein spirulina with Pb <0.02ppm (well below AAFCO limits), used a 150-mesh sieve for texture, and provided an AAFCO compliance certificate. We also offered a 10% discount on the first reorder to support their launch.
Result: The treats became a top-seller in Japanese pet stores, with 92% of dog owners reporting "improved energy" in their senior pets. The company increased orders to 100kg/quarter and expanded to South Korean markets.
