As an accredited Canthaxanthin factory, we enforce strict quality protocols—every batch undergoes rigorous testing to ensure consistent efficacy and safety standards.
| Packing | Canthaxanthin is packaged in a sealed, opaque plastic bottle containing 100 grams, labeled with batch number, purity, and safety instructions. |
| Shipping | Canthaxanthin is shipped in tightly sealed, light-resistant containers to preserve stability. The packaging meets international regulations for non-hazardous chemicals. During transit, it is protected from excessive heat, moisture, and direct sunlight. Appropriate labeling ensures safe handling and compliance with safety standards throughout shipping and storage. |
| Storage | Canthaxanthin should be stored in a tightly closed container, protected from light, moisture, and excessive heat. It is best kept at a cool, dry place, ideally between 2°C and 8°C (refrigerated). Canthaxanthin is sensitive to oxidation, so storage under an inert atmosphere (like nitrogen) and away from oxidizing agents is recommended to maintain its stability and potency. |
