Premium Vitamin A Powder – 500,000 IU/g High-Potency, Cold Water Soluble Formulation
Easy Health Inc. brings you pharmaceutical-grade Vitamin A Powder engineered for superior stability and bioavailability. Our micro-encapsulated beadlet technology provides ≥500,000 IU/g Retinyl Acetate activity, in a cold water soluble (CWS) formulation. This free flowing, light yellow powder disperses easily in aqueous and oil based systems making it ideal for liquid supplements, premixes and enriched feeds.
Our recipe is compliant with international regulatory requirements such as ISO, Halal, Kosher and FDA certification with Loss on Drying ≤5.0%, Ash ≤3.0% and rigors heavy metal limitations (Pb ≤2.0 ppm, As ≤2.0 ppm). We guarantee continuous potency, longer shelf life and smooth incorporation into your nutritional formulations with over 11 years of R&D knowledge.
What is Vitamin A Powder?
Vitamin A is an important fat soluble vitamin, crucial for vision, immunity, reproduction and cellular communication. Raw Retinyl Acetate is a delicate oil sensitive to oxidation and heat damage.
Through the use of sophisticated spray-drying and micro-encapsulation techniques this sensitive chemical is transformed into a stable free flowing substance. Our beadlet method contains the active vitamin in a protective matrix, usually starch, gelatine or gum arabic, sheltering it from moisture, air and light.
This solution addresses a critical pain point in the industry: retaining vitamin potency during manufacturing, storage and distribution. You can rely on the final product to provide uniform dispersion, long term stability and constant nutritional content in every batch.

Why Choose Our Vitamin A Powder?
CWS (Cold Water Soluble) Technology
Our beadlets don’t clump and disperse immediately in cold water. This makes them perfect for liquid feed additives, drinking water supplements and drinks where heat sensitive formulations are a necessity.
High Potency, Low Inclusion Rate
At 500,000 IU/g, you don’t need to use much to achieve nutritional requirements. “This concentrated form will reduce shipping costs, storage space and formulation complexity while delivering maximum efficacy.”
Stability Micro-Encapsulated
Our unique beadlet matrix protects Retinyl Acetate from oxidation, humidity and UV light. You receive a prolonged shelf life ( 24-36 months ) , improved processing tolerance during pelleting or extrusion and guaranteed potency from factory to end user.
Improved Bio-availability
Better absorption in intestine by optimised particle size (80 mesh) and unique coating. Your animals or customers get more of the active substance, leading to better health and ROI.
Multi-purpose Applications
Our product can be added to dry feeds, liquid supplements, premixes and aqueous nutritional beverages for all species and all life stages, whether it’s poultry, swine, aquaculture, pets or human nutrition.
How to Use Vitamin A Powder?
Dosage Recommendations:
Inclusion rates for animal feeds usually range from 5,000-15,000 IU/ton of finished feed depending on species (poultry, swine, ruminants, aquaculture) and stage of production (starter, grower, finisher, breeder). Always consult your nutritionist/ formulation specialist for the correct dose.
Mixing Directions:
Add the Vitamin A Powder directly to your premix or base feed during the blending step. Its free-flowing nature provides consistent dispersion without hot patches or clumps. For liquid use, dissolve in cold or room temperature water with gentle agitation.
Storage After Opening:
Reseal firmly and store in a cool, dry, dark place. To preserve potency, keep away from air, moisture, heat and direct sunshine. Use unsealed containers without delay for optimal effects.
