High phosphorus ferric pyrophosphate is an iron nutritional fortifier with high phosphorus content and low manganese ion content, especially suitable for the milk powder industry. By reducing the manganese ion content, it can avoid adverse reactions with other ingredients, thereby improving the stability of the product. In addition, the high phosphorus content helps maintain the bioavailability of iron in dairy products, making it an ideal iron fortifier choice in milk powder.
Our company is a professional ferric pyrophosphate manufacturer and supplier. We can produce and supply different specifications of Ferric pyrophosphate for different applications.

Food-grade ferric pyrophosphate with high phosphorus and low manganese ion content is a special iron fortifier. Its chemical composition contains a high proportion of phosphorus, while the content of manganese ions is strictly controlled and maintained at a very low level. Ferric pyrophosphate itself is a water-insoluble yellow or white powder with high chemical stability and is widely used as an iron nutritional fortifier in food.
Through technological improvements, this product not only increases the phosphorus content, but also effectively reduces the manganese ion content, making it more suitable for use in the food industry that has strict requirements on microorganisms and heavy metal content, especially milk powder, infant food, Healthy food and beverages and other fields.
1. High phosphorus content:
• The higher phosphorus content in this product helps improve the stability and bioavailability of iron pyrophosphate. This allows it to maintain nutritional availability in foods for a longer period of time.
2. Low manganese ion content:
• Significantly reduced manganese ion content through advanced purification technology. The reduction of manganese ions helps reduce adverse reactions with other ingredients, especially in dairy products and avoids the occurrence of certain oxidation reactions.
3. No peculiar smell or metallic taste:
• High-phosphorus ferric pyrophosphate does not have a metallic taste or unpleasant odor like some other iron nutrients, so it does not affect the taste of food, which is especially important in infant milk powder and beverage products.
4. High bioavailability:
• Although ferric pyrophosphate is insoluble in water, its high bioavailability allows it to be better absorbed in the human body, especially when treated with specific technologies such as microencapsulation, where the absorption effect is significantly improved.
5. Good chemical stability:
• Ferric pyrophosphate has good chemical stability and will not easily undergo oxidation or degradation reactions when mixed with other food raw materials, and can maintain its iron-fortifying effect for a long time.
Application of food grade high phosphorus and low manganese ion ferric pyrophosphate
1. Infant formula milk powder:
• Since infants and young children have a large demand for iron and infant food has very high safety requirements, ferric pyrophosphate with low manganese ions is particularly suitable for use in infant formula milk powder. It provides stable iron nutrition without negatively affecting the taste and stability of the product.
2. Dairy products and milk drinks:
• In milk powder and dairy beverages, ferric pyrophosphate with high phosphorus and low manganese ions shows good stability and is not easy to react with fat in milk, thereby avoiding product deterioration or nutrient loss caused by oxidation.
3. Solid beverages and nutritional supplements:
• This ferric pyrophosphate can be used in solid beverages as a source of iron. Its non-metallic taste makes it suitable for use with other nutritional ingredients such as vitamins and minerals, especially when it needs to be mixed into powdered products. Good dispersion and uniformity.
4. Healthy food:
• In various health foods, high-phosphorus ferric pyrophosphate can be used as an iron fortifier to ensure the stable release of iron while meeting the strict requirements of low heavy metal content.
5. Functional drinks and solid foods:
• Ferric pyrophosphate is also often added as a supplementary source of iron in functional beverages and solid nutritional foods, especially products that require long-term storage and stability during transportation.
Our company provides three categories of ferric pyrophosphate products: standard ferric pyrophosphate, refined ferric pyrophosphate, and customized formulations. These products are widely used in industries such as dairy, infant nutrition, health food, and beverages.
Through ongoing technological innovation and exploration of new possibilities in mineral nutrition, we are committed to delivering tailored solutions and expert services to our clients.
1. Purification Technology: By utilizing advanced purification methods, we reduce the manganese ion content in ferric pyrophosphate during production and increase phosphorus levels. This balance helps maintain food product stability, preventing nutrient degradation and ensuring long-lasting quality.
2. Activation Technology: Activation technology enhances the specific surface area of ferric pyrophosphate, improving its suspension, dispersibility, and bioavailability. This contributes to better stability in food products. Our unique sterilization process, carried out on standardized production lines, ensures strict microbial control, making the product safer and suitable for use in milk powders and health foods.
3. Microcrystalline Granulation Technology: Microcrystalline granulation improves the flowability of ferric pyrophosphate, resulting in uniform, controlled particle sizes with excellent compressibility, making it easier and quicker to use in tablet formulations. When ferric pyrophosphate is treated with microencapsulation technology, it isolates the catalytic reaction between iron ions and fats in high-fat foods, preventing rancidity and extending the shelf life of products.
