Application Scenarios:
Food Grade
1. Infant Formula: Widely added to infant formula, iron-fortified weaning rice cereal, and complementary food packets. Because infants' digestive systems are extremely delicate, inorganic iron can easily cause gastrointestinal discomfort. Ferrous gluconate, being mild, is the preferred iron fortifier in maternal and infant foods.
2. Functional Dietary Supplements and Multivitamins: Added to multivitamin and mineral tablets, women's health supplements, and iron-fortified solid beverages.
3. Black Olive Fruit Color Protectant: Legally used in the international food industry as a chemical color protectant for canned black olives. The ferrous iron in ferrous gluconate combines with phenolic compounds in olives to form a stable deep black color, resulting in a uniform, rich, and fade-resistant color after processing.
Daily Chemical Grade
1. Anti-dullness and Scalp Care Products: Iron ions are used as a trace element additive in certain scalp care conditions or anti-hair loss products to synergistically improve microcirculation around hair follicles.
2. High-end functional cosmetics: Used as a conditioning agent in a very small number of pioneering skincare products that utilize iron complexes for antioxidant or energy metabolism regulation.
Feed grade
High-end functional pet nutrition products: Widely added to premium cat and dog food, as well as pet-specific blood-building pastes and post-operative recovery solutions. Effectively improves symptoms such as anemia, dull coat, and pale gums in pets caused by illness, parasite infections, or surgical blood loss, promoting the restoration of shine to the pet's coat and restoring physical strength.
Packing
25 kg, lined with a PE bag, and the outer bag is a high-density laminated woven bag or paper bag.
