Quality Control

Our Maltitol Laurate is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. We provide Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing key parameters such as assay, acid value, and moisture content. Our production adheres to cGMP guidelines, and we can support compliance with relevant regulations for target markets, including REACH.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect product quality and flow properties.
