Snail Peptide
Snail Peptide is an animal-derived peptide ingredient produced from snail (Cornu aspersum). The whole production workflow covers raw material selection, cleaning, degreasing, controlled enzymatic hydrolysis, filtration, concentration, spray drying, fine screening and sifting. The finished material consists of short-chain peptide fragments generated from breaking down snail protein. The production follows food-grade operating standards, with multi-stage purification steps to remove large protein molecules and fine impurities, preserving the natural amino acid composition of the snail raw material.
Many snail peptide ingredients on the market have uneven molecular weight distribution, heavy off-flavour or high insoluble residue. Our snail peptide uses selected cleaned snail as starting material, combined with targeted enzyme treatment, deodorization and multi-layer filtration. The finished powder is fine, uniform in texture and off-white to light beige in colour, with a mild inherent
We supply food-grade snail peptides derived from Cornu aspersum, with multiple molecular weight specifications available. Different MW grades can be selected for beverage formulation, solid food blending and functional ingredient compounding. Each batch is inspected and tested by third-party independent laboratories to meet international food safety and clean-label standards.

Cornu aspersum is a commonly farmed land snail. Snail tissue contains a notable amount of protein and natural mineral substances, which can be enzymatically broken down into small peptides. Our snail peptide uses selected snail as starting material, processed by mild enzymolysis and spray drying to retain the natural amino acid profile of snail protein. This animal-derived ingredient shows stable physical properties and flexible application, matching the global market trend of natural and clean-label food raw materials.
Thanks to its powder form, good solubility, mild natural flavour and stable batch quality, snail peptides are widely used in global nutritional beverage, solid drink and food ingredient manufacturing industries:
We operate standardized cleaning, enzymolysis and spray drying production lines. Stable raw material sourcing and complete batch inspection systems help maintain stable peptide content, low impurity levels and consistent sensory properties for bulk export orders.
