Pomegranate Extract 40% Ellagic Acid, also known as Pomegranate Peel Extract or Pomegranate Peel Powder, is a powerful natural ingredient rich in ellagic acid. Extracted from the dried peel of the pomegranate, this fine brown powder is highly regarded in the health and cosmetics industry for its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and skin-brightening properties.
Ellagic acid is a polyphenolic antioxidant that has been shown to have the potential to support cellular health, fight oxidative stress and promote an even skin tone. Standardized to a high concentration of 40% ellagic acid, this extract features consistent particle size, improved solubility in ethanol systems, and compatibility with a variety of formulation needs. It ensures consistent efficacy in a variety of applications such as dietary supplements, skin care products, and functional foods.
In addition to bulk powders, OEM and ODM customization services are available to meet specific product goals. Whether producing anti-aging capsules or antioxidant health blends, customized packaging, private labeling, and technical support are offered to help shorten time to market.
Verified by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), ensuring accurate and repeatable results for formulations. This supports predictable product claims and regulatory compliance.
Particle size is controlled between 80-120 mesh to ensure excellent dispersibility in solid dosage forms like capsules, tablets, and drink mixes. It shows higher solubility in ethanol-based systems for cosmetic formulations.
With decades of dedicated plant extraction experience, all processes are managed in-house under strict control of temperature and solvent ratios, keeping residual solvents well below industry thresholds.
Manufacturing processes comply with global standards including ISO22000, FSSC22000, cGMP, Kosher, Halal, Organic (EU and USDA), and SGS, ensuring reliable consistency and safety.
