Raw Material Natural Characteristics

Phytosterols naturally exist in many oil-bearing plants. Our phytosterols are refined from vegetable oil distillates, separated and purified to obtain mixed plant sterol crystals. The product shows stable physical properties and works well in oil-containing formula systems, matching the global development trend of plant-based and clean-label food ingredients.

• Plant Origin: Extracted from vegetable oil by-products, plant-sourced raw material without animal-derived components.

• Multi-Stage Crystallization Purification: Adopt repeated crystallization steps to separate target sterol components, keeping stable composition ratio between batches.

• Stable Sensory Consistency: Unified production standards ensure consistent colour and purity across different batches, improving the application performance of finished compound products.

• Wide Formula Adaptability: Fine crystalline texture supports uniform mixing in oil phase, compatible with various fat-containing food formula systems for diversified applications.

Application Fields

With plant-derived sterol attributes, stable batch quality and good oil-phase dispersibility, phytosterols are widely applied in global functional food, edible oil and nutritional product manufacturing industries:

• Nutritional Meal Replacement Foods: Plant composite meal powder, food nutritional fortification ingredients, plant-based compound formula materials

• Edible Oil & Fat Formulas: Fortified edible oil, margarine, shortening and oil blend raw materials

• Bakery & Snack Products: Nutritional ingredients for baked goods, cereal bars and fat-based filling blending

• Dietary Blend Formulas: Composite nutritional powder, plant sterol formula components

• Clean-Label Food R&D: Standard plant-derived raw material for plant-based and clean-label new product development

Our Supplier Advantages

• Controlled Crystallization Process: Use graded crystallization technology to separate plant sterol components, maintaining stable composition ratio.

• Multi-Stage Purification: Multiple recrystallization procedures remove residual oil and tiny impurities, helping achieve stable purity.

• Full Batch Quality Control: Each batch undergoes appearance, total sterol content, heavy metal and microbial testing before shipment, meeting international food-grade export standards.

• Flexible Custom Service: Support composition and packaging customization, providing complete export documents including COA and MSDS.

Packaging & Storage Guidelines

• Standard Export Packaging: 1kg aluminum foil vacuum bag; 25kg food-grade fiber drum with inner plastic lining bag

• Storage Conditions: Store in cool, dry, dark and ventilated warehouse, avoid high temperature, humid environment and direct sunlight exposure.

• Storage Reminder: Phytosterols are sensitive to high temperature and oxidation. Please keep tightly sealed after opening to prevent oxidation and changes to product properties.

FAQ

Q1: What is the source of your phytosterols?

A1: Our phytosterols are extracted from vegetable oil distillates such as soybean, rapeseed or sunflower oil, refined by extraction and crystallization, no animal ingredients included.

Q2: Does this product contain added sugar or artificial additives?

A2: Bulk phytosterols are produced with extraction and crystallization purification. No added sugar, artificial pigments, flavours, preservatives or inert fillers are added, suitable for clean-label product production.

Q3: What are MOQ and delivery time?

A3: Small sample orders are supported for quality testing and formula trial. Conventional specifications are in stock for fast delivery, and customized requirements can be confirmed separately.
