Spirulina Powder

In recent years, few plant-based raw materials have made such a consistent inroads into the formulation of functional foods, dietary supplements, and greens products as spirulina. The reason behind this: The microalgae’s nutrient profile is largely unique in the world of plant-based raw materials, and the powder’s technological properties make it easy to incorporate into a wide variety of formulations.

We offer spirulina as a pure powder in two grades: a conventional type for general industrial use and a organic grade for manufacturers who need to label their products as organic.

Spirulina Powder

Spirulina Powder HMW (Item No.: 96025) is a dark green, free-flowing powder with the typical mild, algae-like aroma of the spirulina microalgae. It consists of 100% pure spirulina, with no carriers or additives. Gently dried and finely ground, the natural ingredients of the raw material are preserved: an exceptionally high content of plant protein, natural pigments such as chlorophyll and phycocyanin, as well as vitamins and minerals. The powder disperses easily and can be incorporated into dry mixtures and liquid formulations without pretreatment. The standard grade is delivered in a 25 kg cardboard drum with a PE inner bag on a disposable pallet with a maximum capacity of 900 kg.

We will be happy to provide you with the complete specifications, including analytical values, upon request.

In terms of texture, processing properties, and nutrient profile, it corresponds to the conventional version: dark green, free-flowing powder, gently dried, finely ground, easily dispersible, 100% pure spirulina without any carriers. Anyone developing dietary supplements, greens products, or functional foods with an organic label today will find in this grade a reliable raw material that can be integrated directly into existing organic formulations without compromising on purity or processing properties.

Applications in the food industry

Spirulina is not a raw material with just one application. Its combination of high protein content, intense natural color, and good workability makes the powder an attractive option for a wide variety of product categories.

  • Dietary supplements: Spirulina is one of the few plant-based raw materials that can be used as a single ingredient in capsules, tablets, and powder sachets without the need for a carrier. The pure powder, free of additives, simplifies the formulation process and allows for a short, clean ingredient list, offering direct formulation benefits to dietary supplement manufacturers.
  • Smoothie powders and instant beverages: The finely ground powder can be incorporated into instant beverage mixes without settling or clumping. Its intense dark green color serves as a sensory cue of naturalness that remains clearly visible in the finished premix and enhances the product’s appearance.
  • Superfood blends and green blends: When combined with other plant extracts, grass powders, or algae products, spirulina enhances both the nutritional profile and the color intensity of the final product. Its excellent workability ensures uniform distribution within the blend, which guarantees consistency from batch to batch, particularly in products with complex formulations.
  • Functional foods and high-protein products: Manufacturers who use plant-based protein in bars, protein powders, or fortified foods benefit from spirulina’s natural amino acid profile without having to declare it as an additive. Its vegan-friendly nature makes the powder suitable for plant-based recipes without any further restrictions.
