FAQ

Q: Does this powder have anti-caking agents?

A: No. Without carriers, maltodextrin, or flow agents, our product is 100% fruit.

Q: How does spray-dried product compare to drum-dried?

A: While preserving good reconstitution qualities, our low-temperature dehydration approach maintains more heat-sensitive nutrients than high-temperature spray drying.

Q: What's the best way to prevent clumping after opening?

A: Keep humidity below 50% in closed containers. Refrigerate desiccant-packed bags for long-term storage after opening.

Q: Can tablet compression utilize this?

A: Yes. Direct compression works with 60-80 mesh dust and 3-5% moisture. To optimize binder ratios for your formulation, test small amounts.

Q: Should I worry about allergens?

A: Based on the FDA's major allergen list, the product is allergen-free. But facility controls prevent cross-contamination. The COA lists allergens.

Q: Are custom moisture specifications available?

A: 3–5% moisture standard. Request bespoke processing from our R&D team for formulations with varying moisture levels (MOQ may apply).
