Product Specifications

Core Parameters

Quality Certifications

• ISO 9001:2015 (Cert. No.: QMS-20180526)
• HACCP (Re-certified annually since 2016)
• HALAL (JAKIM approved)
• SC Food Production License (China)

Manufacturing Process

Step 1: Raw Material Sourcing

Working as a contractor with farmers in Shaanxi Province who are GAP-certified. Before it is accepted, each crop batch goes through a 312-pesticide screening.

Step 2: Pre-Processing

Industrial washers clean up the field. Automated peeling and deseeded lines handle 5 tonnes of fruit and vegetables per hour while reducing exposure to oxygen.

Step 3: Spray Drying

160 to 180°C at the intake

80 to 90°C at the outlet

This quick drying (less than 30 seconds) keeps the carotenoids better than standard drum drying (shown by HPLC tests that show 22% higher retention).

Step 4: Milling & Classification

Jet mills make sure that the particles are spread out evenly. For stable suspension of beverages, vibrating sieves make sure that the uniformity is between 80 and 120 mesh.

Step 5: Quality Release

Each batch of goods gets:

• Panel study of nutrients (3rd party lab)
• Getting rid of microbes
• Verification of allergens (checking for gluten, soy, and dairy)
• A heavy metal screen

Application Guidelines

Beverage Formulations

2–5% (w/w) is the recommended dose.

Note about solubility: Mix in a little warm water (40 to 50°C) first before adding to the main batch. Levels of stability: 3.5 to 7.0.

Ready-to-drink smoothies, protein shakes, and plant-based milk replacements are all examples of uses.

Solid Dosage Forms

When making tablets or capsules, mix with 10 to 15 percent silicon dioxide to make the mixture move better.

Uses for gummies: Works with both pectin and gelatin systems. Include while the mixture is cooling (60°C).

Bakery Products

• Inclusion rate: 3 to 8 percent (based on flour weight)
• Functional benefit: natural yellow-orange colour, fibre richness, and 12% better moisture retention than the control.
• Pet Nutrition: Meets the AAFCO guidelines for food for pets.

FAQ

Q: How do spray-dried and freeze-dried pumpkin powder differ?

A: Freeze-drying retains volatile aromatics but costs 3-4× more and produces lighter, fluffier particles that may cause excessive dust in industrial mixing. For nutritional density above fresh taste, our spray-dried version is cheaper.

Q: Can this substitute fresh pumpkin puree in recipes?

A: Calculate 9kg puree from 1kg powder + 8L water. Reconstituted product is great for cooked desserts; fresh puree is better for no-bake sweets with creamy texture.

Q: Are beta-carotene levels standardised?

A: We manage raw material selection and harvest timing (peak ripeness = highest carotenoids). We give lot-specific COAs for formulation modifications due to natural variation (15-25 mg/100g).

Q: What allergen controls exist?

A: Pumpkin powder production lines (no allergen-containing equipment). A separate facility processes tree nuts. Quarterly allergy testing by third parties.

Q: Can I tour your factory?

A: Audits are welcome. Schedule by email two weeks in advance.
