Maca Extract

Lepidium Meyenii Root Extract Powder

Maca extract is a standardized plant‑sourced raw material processed from the dried roots of Lepidium meyenii. Rich in maca alkaloids, macamides and polysaccharides, this root extract is widely used across the global dietary‑supplement market for daily physical conditioning and vitality support.

Product Details

Our maca extract is produced through water‑alcohol dual‑phase extraction, purification and spray‑drying techniques. The refining process removes root fibre, starch and other irrelevant components, while locking in core active substances. Many bulk maca extracts available on the market suffer from unstable active content because of raw‑source differences and simple processing, which leads to inconsistent performance in end‑products. Our maca extract powder features uniform colour, fine texture and good powder flow‑ability, delivering steady batch‑to‑batch quality for large‑scale formula production. No artificial pigments, synthetic preservatives or extra fillers are added during manufacturing.

Our Advantages

We have stable maca root procurement channels and complete extraction, purification and low‑temperature drying production lines. Rigorous internal quality‑control ensures consistent batch quality and stable supply for global bulk export orders.

  • Strict raw‑material screeningCarefully select high‑quality dried maca roots, screen out deteriorated raw materials, and regularly test heavy metals, pesticide residues and microbial indicators.
  • Gentle extraction technologyAdopt moderate extraction process to avoid destroying heat‑sensitive macamides and alkaloids, retain natural plant activity fully.
  • Batch‑by‑batch full inspectionEvery batch will complete full‑item detection before shipment, covering active components, moisture, heavy metals and microorganisms.
  • Custom service availableSupport active‑content adjustment, powder‑particle‑size optimization and private‑label packaging solutions.
  • Flexible ordering policy1 kg sample trial orders are supported. Complete export documents including COA, MSDS and full test reports can be provided for customs clearance.

Packaging & Storage

  • Standard Export Packaging1 kg aluminum foil vacuum bag; 25 kg food‑grade fiber drum with inner plastic lining bag
  • Storage ConditionsStore in cool, dry, dark and ventilated warehouse. Keep away from direct sunlight, high temperature and humid environment.
  • Important ReminderKeep tightly sealed after opening. Maca active components are sensitive to moisture; improper storage will cause powder caking and activity decline.

FAQ

Q1: What are the main test markers for maca extract?

A1: Macamides, maca alkaloids and maca polysaccharides are the main active markers for commercial maca extract, widely accepted by global supplement manufacturers.

Q2: What is the difference between maca root powder and concentrated maca extract?

A2: Ordinary maca root powder contains large amounts of starch and fibre with low active‑substance content. Concentrated maca extract removes redundant starch and fibre, enriches macamides and other active ingredients, owns more stable test indicators and better formula compatibility.
