Calcium Lactate Hydrate

Calcium lactate hydrate is the calcium salt of lactic acid in its hydrated crystalline form. Nustras supplies it as a white powder or granule, used as a calcium source and as a firming, buffering and leavening agent in foods, beverages and dietary supplements.

It is formulated into calcium supplements in tablet, capsule, powder and effervescent form; into fortified juices, plant-based milks and dairy products; into bakery and confectionery as a leavening component; into fruit and vegetable preparations as a firming agent; and into feed premixes.

Calcium lactate hydrate is supplied as a white, almost odourless crystalline powder (CAS 814-80-2, molecular formula C6H10CaO6, molecular weight 218.22). Calcium content, water content and solubility are standardised to specification; identity is confirmed by calcium and lactate tests and assay by complexometric titration. Heavy-metal and microbial limits are supplied to specification and confirmed on each lot's certificate of analysis.

Nustras supplies calcium lactate hydrate in bulk commercial quantities, in food-grade bags and fibre drums, to manufacturers and formulators internationally, with a certificate of analysis, specification sheet and country-of-origin documentation on every lot. Calcium lactate is an accepted food additive and supplement mineral source in major markets; buyers confirm the elemental-calcium contribution, hydrate form and permitted level for their application.
