Description

Collagen Hydrolyzates are a premium form of hydrolyzed collagen peptides, derived from the controlled enzymatic breakdown of native collagen. This process yields a highly bioavailable and soluble protein source with a low molecular weight profile, making it an essential functional ingredient for demanding applications. Key industries that rely on this material include nutraceuticals, cosmeceuticals, functional foods, and biomedical research.

Application

• Nutraceutical & Dietary Supplements: Used in powders, capsules, and gummies for joint health, skin beauty, and sports nutrition due to its high bioavailability and amino acid profile.
• Functional Food & Beverage Fortification: Incorporated into protein drinks, health bars, and yogurts as a clear, tasteless protein source that does not affect product texture.
• Cosmetic & Personal Care Formulations: Acts as a moisturizing and film-forming agent in anti-aging creams, serums, lotions, and hair care products to improve skin elasticity and hydration.
• Biomedical & Pharmaceutical Research: Serves as a biomaterial scaffold in tissue engineering, wound healing dressings, and drug delivery systems.
• Pet Nutrition & Veterinary Products: Added to pet food and supplements to support joint and coat health in companion animals.
• Sports Nutrition: A key protein component in recovery shakes and muscle-building supplements for its rapid absorption and rich glycine and proline content.

Quality Control

Our Collagen Hydrolyzates are manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch is tested to ensure it meets stringent specifications for purity, molecular weight distribution, and microbiological safety. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) and can support compliance with relevant standards such as FCC (Food Chemicals Codex) and cGMP for food and pharmaceutical-grade materials.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); ensure the container is kept tightly sealed after each use to prevent caking or degradation due to moisture absorption.
