  Compared with organic calcium sources such as calcium lactate and calcium gluconate, food-grade calcium carbonate has become the mainstream calcium source for industrial nutrient fortification, featuring high calcium content, stable performance, wide compatibility and outstanding cost performance. With full-range food-grade calcium carbonate products, Penglai Marine meets the diversified production needs of various food categories, serving as a preferred and essential raw material for food enterprises to upgrade product quality and reduce production costs.

I. Product Application: Multi-scenario Adaptation | Mainstream Application Fields of Food-Grade Calcium Carbonate

  Food-grade calcium carbonate delivers multiple functions including nutrient fortification, acidity regulation, leavening improvement and quality stabilization. It is widely applied in four core scenarios of food and health product manufacturing:

1. Nutrient Fortification for Dairy Products

  It is applicable to a full range of dairy products, including infant formula milk powder, complementary foods, pure milk, yogurt, soybean milk and formulated milk. It effectively compensates for the insufficient natural calcium content in raw milk and scientifically boosts the calcium level of finished products. Featuring pure and mild properties, the product complies with compliance standards for infant formula foods and meets calcium supplementation needs for all age groups.

2. Substrate for Dietary & Health Supplements

  It serves as the core raw material for pressed-tablet health products such as calcium tablets, chewable tablets and compound mineral tablets, as well as meal replacement powder, nutritional solid beverages and middle-aged and elderly nutritional powder. It covers full-population nutritional fortification scenarios including children’s growth, adult health maintenance and elderly bone care.

3. Improvement for Baking & Pasta Products

  Ideal for bread, cakes, biscuits, frozen pasta, dried noodles and other flour products, it neutralizes fermentation acidity, stabilizes dough pH value, optimizes dough ductility and improves finished product texture. It effectively prevents pasta from souring, hardening and cracking, while supplementing mineral nutrients to realize nutritional upgrading of staple foods.

4. Quality Enhancement for Puffed Snacks

  As a leavening aid and nutritional improver for potato chips, rice crackers, puffed crisps and other snack foods, it optimizes crisp texture and product appearance, reduces production defective rates, and adds calcium nutritional value to leisure food.

II. Product Characteristics: Outperforming Traditional Organic Calcium | Core Advantages of Premium Raw Materials

  Compared with traditional organic calcium sources, food-grade calcium carbonate boasts prominent advantages in mass production adaptability and comprehensive cost performance:

1. High Calcium Content & Low Dosage, Excellent Cost Performance

  The calcium content of pure products reaches up to 40%, far exceeding that of ordinary organic calcium. It delivers better calcium supplementation effect with the same dosage, reduces raw material consumption, and cuts down enterprise production costs from the source.

2. Safe & Stable, Suitable for All Age Groups

  Processed through purification, impurity removal and sterilization, the product contains no heavy metal residues and features stable physicochemical properties and balanced human absorption. It strictly conforms to food safety standards and is safe for infants, the elderly and all consumer groups.

3. Strong Compatibility & Mass Production Adaptability

  Compatible with various production processes including powder mixing, direct dry pressing, liquid blending and fermentation improvement, it perfectly adapts to automated large-scale production of various foods and health products with high processing compatibility.

III. Enterprise & Product Advantages: Full-category Coverage & Customized Calcium Source Solutions

  Penglai Marine supplies full-category calcium carbonate products, including ground calcium carbonate, precipitated calcium carbonate and oyster shell calcium carbonate. Equipped with both dry and wet dual production processes and a strict internal quality control system, we mainly offer two core specifications — direct-press granules and ultra-fine powder, providing one-stop solutions to meet diverse customer production demands.

✨ Hot-selling Product | Direct-Press Granules

1. Excellent Fluidity for Direct Tableting

  No pre-granulation or complex pretreatment required. The powder can be directly pressed and formed with uniform and smooth feeding, solving production pain points such as tableting jamming and uneven tablet thickness, and significantly improving production line efficiency.

2. Adjustable Particle Size for Wide Scenario Coverage

  Particle size can be precisely customized to adapt to calcium tablets, chewable tablets, solid beverages, functional powder, baked goods and various other products.

3. Uniform Color & Higher Economic Benefits

  Featuring high and uniform whiteness, the product delivers clean and high-quality finished product appearance. With low production loss, excellent mass production adaptability and superior cost performance, it effectively enhances the market competitiveness of terminal products and corporate economic benefits.

✨ Hot-selling Product | Ultra-Fine Powder

1. Ultra-Fine Particle Size for Easy & Efficient Absorption

  Adopting advanced ultra-fine crushing technology, the particle size is strictly controlled within ≤5μm. It can be quickly absorbed without gastric acid decomposition, directly acting on cells and solving the problem of ineffective calcium absorption.

2. Fine Texture & Rapid Dissolution

  It features excellent dispersion and solubility, evenly dissolving and dispersing in water, grease and other carriers without precipitation, delamination or caking during long-term storage. With a smooth and delicate taste, it is easily acceptable by the elderly and children.

3. Wide Compatibility & Full-scenario Application

  With uniform color and mild stable properties, it is compatible with various nutrients without losing nutritional activity. The dosage is precisely controllable and adaptable to various flavors, widely applicable to liquid calcium, gummy candies, granules and other nutritional products.

✨ Rigorous Production Technology & Quality Control Guarantee

1. Flexible Dual Production Processes

  Equipped with flexible dry and wet dual production technologies, we can customize powdered and granular products with different forms according to customers’ product demands and process standards, adapting to diversified production requirements.

2. Strict Internal Control Standards

  We implement internal quality control standards stricter than national benchmarks, strictly managing core safety indicators such as microorganisms, foreign matters and heavy metals. Stable batch indicators and consistent quality fully meet the compliance production requirements of foods and health products.
