Shaanxi New Things Biotech specializes in producing high-purity zeaxanthin beadlets powder extracted from marigold flowers (Tagetes erecta L.). Our product delivers specifications ranging from 5% to 70% purity, verified by HPLC testing. With an optimized particle size of 80 mesh and distinctive orange-yellow appearance, this microencapsulated formulation ensures superior stability and dispersibility for dietary supplements and functional food applications. Our integrated supply chain—from autonomous marigold cultivation to advanced extraction using supercritical fluid technology—guarantees consistent quality and traceability. ISO 9001, HALAL, and KOSHER certifications validate our commitment to international compliance standards.

This natural carotenoid pigment serves as a crucial macular component in human eyes. Unlike standard powders, our beadlet technology protects the active ingredient from photo-oxidation and environmental degradation.
The chemical structure (C₄₀H₅₆O₂, CAS 144-68-3) of R,R-zeaxanthin delivers potent antioxidant properties. Your body cannot synthesize this essential nutrient—it must come from dietary sources or supplementation.
Our advanced manufacturing process combines molecular distillation with automated production lines. This ensures uniform particle distribution and enhanced bioavailability in finished formulations.

Eye Protection and Visual Function
Our zeaxanthin beadlets powder filters harmful blue light wavelengths that damage retinal tissues. It accumulates in the macular region, working synergistically with lutein to maintain sharp vision and reduce age-related degeneration risk.
Antioxidant Defense System
The carotenoid structure neutralizes singlet oxygen and free radicals throughout your body. This mechanism protects cellular membranes from oxidative stress caused by UV exposure and metabolic processes.
Skin Health Enhancement
When formulated into cosmetic products, this ingredient shields skin cells from UV-induced damage. It supports collagen integrity and reduces visible signs of photoaging.
Cognitive Function Support
Emerging research links macular carotenoid density to improved cognitive performance. Zeaxanthin crosses the blood-brain barrier to provide neuroprotective benefits.
Versatile Industry Uses
You can incorporate this ingredient into functional beverages, dairy products, baked goods, and infant formulas. The feed industry uses it to enhance egg yolk pigmentation. Personal care formulators value its natural color and skin protection properties.

Our Quality Control Center employs HPLC and GC-MS analytical methods to verify active ingredient concentration. Every production batch undergoes rigorous testing for microbial limits, heavy metals, and pesticide residues.
The GMP-based manufacturing protocol ensures contamination-free processing environments. Digital monitoring systems track temperature, humidity, and light exposure throughout production cycles.
Third-party laboratories independently test finished products before shipment. This dual-verification approach guarantees that your zeaxanthin beadlets powder meets international safety standards.
Raw material identity confirmation begins at cultivation sites. Our traceability system documents each processing stage—from harvest through final packaging—providing complete supply chain transparency.
Store sealed containers in cool, dry conditions away from direct sunlight. Optimal temperature range is 15-25°C with relative humidity below 60%.
The microencapsulation technology extends shelf life to 24 months when properly stored. Avoid exposure to high heat or moisture, which may compromise stability.
Once opened, transfer contents to airtight containers with nitrogen flushing if possible. Minimize air contact to prevent oxidation of sensitive carotenoid molecules.
Handle with clean, dry utensils to prevent cross-contamination. Keep away from strong odors as the powder may absorb external smells.
Standard packaging uses 25kg fiber drums with double food-grade polyethylene inner bags. We offer customized options including vacuum-sealed foil pouches and light-resistant bottles.
Small-batch orders receive aluminum foil nitrogen-filled packaging to maximize freshness. Labeling accommodates multiple languages and includes batch numbers for traceability.
Our logistics partners ensure temperature-controlled transportation to preserve product integrity. Express shipping delivers orders within 2-4 business days after payment confirmation.
Documentation includes certificates of analysis, MSDS sheets, and compliance statements. We coordinate directly with customs brokers to facilitate smooth international shipments.

Located in Xi'an, our 10,000-square-meter facility integrates research laboratories with production workshops. The R&D center develops customized formulations tailored to your specific application requirements.
Supercritical CO₂ extraction equipment processes raw marigold petals without chemical solvents. Molecular distillation units further purify extracts to achieve targeted concentration levels.
Automated filling lines handle various packaging formats—from bulk drums to retail-ready containers. Clean room environments meet pharmaceutical-grade standards for sensitive ingredient processing.
Our team provides technical support for product development, stability testing, and regulatory compliance guidance. Whether you need kilogram-scale trials or ton-level commercial production, our flexible capacity adapts to your timeline.

What is the bioavailability difference between beadlets and standard powder?
Beadlet technology improves absorption rates by protecting zeaxanthin from degradation in the digestive tract. The microencapsulation allows controlled release, enhancing uptake into bloodstream and ocular tissues.
Can this ingredient be used in vegan formulations?
Yes, our marigold-derived zeaxanthin is 100% plant-based and suitable for vegan dietary supplements and foods.
How does this compare to synthetic zeaxanthin?
Our natural extraction preserves the complete isomer profile found in food sources. Synthetic versions may lack complementary phytonutrients that enhance biological activity.
What is the recommended daily dosage?
Clinical studies typically use 2-10mg daily for eye health benefits. Exact dosing depends on your product formulation and target health claims.
Do you provide formulation support?
Our R&D team assists with stability testing, compatibility assessments, and application-specific formula optimization for your finished products.
