Spray-Dried Krill Oil Powder
Antarctic Krill Oil for Dietary Supplements, Nutraceuticals & Functional Foods
Hestia Biotech supplies Spray-Dried Krill Oil Powder derived from sustainable Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba). Produced under strict GMP, ISO 22000, and HACCP standards, this ingredient combines marine lipid profiles with a dry powder format for manufacturers of dietary supplements, functional foods, and nutritional formulations.
Available with Non-GMO, Halal, and Kosher options, our powder can be customized for phospholipids, EPA, DHA, and natural astaxanthin. We also offer comprehensive OEM and custom manufacturing solutions tailored to brand-specific requirements.
Key Product Advantages
High Stability & Protection: Microencapsulation shields sensitive EPA and DHA from direct oxygen exposure, minimizing oxidation and managing the characteristic marine odor.
Superior Formulation Versatility: Eliminates messy liquid oil handling, enabling direct dry-blending for powder mixes, capsules, and sachets.
Aqueous Integration: Specialized water-dispersible grades integrate smoothly into clear or flavored powdered beverages and stick packs.
Customizable Profiles: Tailored concentrations of phospholipids, omega-3s, and astaxanthin to match exact brand and regulatory requirements.
Guaranteed Compliance: Backed by full lot traceability, pharmacopeial safety testing, and international quality certifications.

OEM & Custom Manufacturing Services
Hestia Biotech provides end-to-end OEM, ODM, and custom formulation services for global brand owners, distributors, and contract manufacturers. Rather than forcing your product into a standard grade, we engineer the powder to match your exact commercial blueprint:
Custom Active Profiling: Tailor exact ratios of krill oil concentration, phospholipids, EPA, DHA, and astaxanthin.
Carrier & Encapsulation Selection: Customized wall matrices designed for specific processing conditions, moisture barriers, or taste-masking.
Physical Property Adjustments: Engineered particle size, flowability, bulk density, and water-dispersibility to fit your blending equipment.
Private Label & Bulk Packaging: Flexible packaging solutions ranging from pilot-scale foil bags to industrial fiber drums, customized with your branding or neutral labeling.
Quality Control & Traceability
Hestia Biotech ensures batch consistency through rigorous verification protocols:
Assay Testing
Quantified levels of phospholipids, EPA, DHA, and astaxanthin via approved analytical methods.
Oxidation Control
Monitored Peroxide Value (PV) and Acid Value (AV).
Traceability
Full documentation tracking raw material from the Antarctic fishery through processing, microencapsulation, and final packaging.
B2B Packaging & Documentation
Documentation
Certificate of Analysis (COA), Technical Data Sheet (TDS), Safety Data Sheet (SDS), and compliance certificates provided per batch.
Packaging
Multi-layer aluminum foil bags or fiber drums with food-grade PE liners.
Storage
Store in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight; keep containers tightly sealed.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the source of the krill oil?
A: Our krill oil is sourced exclusively from sustainable Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba), ensuring high purity and traceability.
Q: Does the powder contain natural EPA, DHA, and phospholipids?
A: Yes. The ingredient retains the core biochemical profile of krill oil, featuring omega-3 fatty acids predominantly bound to phospholipids, alongside naturally occurring astaxanthin.
Q: Is the powder completely water-soluble?
A: The powder is offered in water-dispersible grades specifically engineered to suspend smoothly in aqueous formulations like drink mixes and stick packs, rather than undergoing molecular water-solubility.
Q: How does spray-drying affect shelf life and oxidation?
A: Microencapsulation places a protective wall matrix around the krill oil droplets, significantly minimizing oxygen exposure and improving oxidative stability compared to raw liquid oil.
Q: Can specifications be customized for our formulations?
A: Yes. Through our OEM capabilities, we tailor active concentrations (phospholipids, EPA, DHA, astaxanthin), particle size, bulk density, and carrier systems to meet your exact product requirements.
Q: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) and lead time?
A: MOQ and lead times vary depending on the customized specification, packaging format, and order volume. Contact our B2B team for details.
