Product Description
Pure beta carotene powder is generated from the roots of farmed carrots (Daucus carota), which have been selectively developed for their high concentration of carotenoids, particularly beta-carotene. Our extract is derived from premium carrot types produced in ideal soil conditions and without the use of illegal chemicals. We use a supply chain that tracks carrots from seed selection to harvest at peak maturity, assuring maximum pigment production. The technique aims to concentrate the lipophilic carotenoid fraction while retaining its native isomeric composition and antioxidant activity.
We use a mild, food-grade oil or supercritical CO₂extraction procedure to effectively dissolve carotenoids without utilizing harsh chemical solvents. This approach protects sensitive chemicals from thermal breakdown and oxidation.

The main benefits of Pure beta carotene powder
The function as provitamin A
Pure beta carotene powder have Beta-carotene that is converted into vitamin A in the body, contributing to maintaining vision, supporting the immune system, and promoting skin health.The powerful antioxidant capacity of carotenoids neutralizes reactive oxygen species and protects cells from oxidative stress.
01
Skin health and protection
It is expected to play a supplementary role in maintaining the skin's barrier function and protecting it from damage caused by ultraviolet rays (※It is not a substitute for sunscreen).
02
Eye health support
Helps maintain normal vision and, when containing lutein, also supports the health of the macula.
03
The enhancement of immune function
Vitamin A is essential for the normal operation of the immune system and also contributes to infection defense.
04
Main application fields and advantages
Main application fields and advantages
Supplements
It is utilized in vitamin A and beta-carotene capsules, multivitamins, and antioxidant combination supplements, among others.
Functional foods and beverages
It is used in beverages, dairy products, bakery products, snacks, etc. as a natural source of vitamin A and as a natural colorant.
The advantages of product quality
Natural Origin Clean Label
Made from carrots as the main ingredient, it is produced through simple processes such as oil extraction or CO₂supercritical extraction.
Natural isomer retention
It contains a variety of carotenoid isomers similar to those found in nature, especially a rich amount of trans-β-carotene, which has a high bioavailability.
We offer a variety of dosage forms to meet your needs, including oil-based oleoresins and water-dispersible powders.
We take into account the acid stability and, if necessary, add antioxidant components such as tocopherol and ascorbyl palmitate to maintain quality.
Stability of component content
We ensure the β-carotene content and achieve stable supply with reduced quality variations between batches.
Production Process
Professional ODM/OEM Services
Custom carotenoid profiles, varying concentrations (1%-20% beta-carotene), development of water-dispersible or cold-water-soluble forms, and creation of custom color blends for specific applications.
Cooperation Advantages
Collaboration with Farmers
Work with growers on varietal selection and harvest timing for optimal carotenoid content.
Advanced Extraction Options
Offer both traditional oil extraction and state-of-the-art supercritical CO₂ extraction.
Focus on Natural Isomers
Process designed to minimize isomerization to less active cis-forms.
Application Expertise
Knowledge of incorporating carotenoids into various food, supplement, and cosmetic matrices.
