Manufacturing Process of Phosphate for Food

Our food grade phosphate is produced under strict process control to ensure safety, purity and performance that meet international standards.

How Food Grade Phosphate Is Produced

1. Raw material preparation
Carefully selected phosphorus ore and phosphate raw materials are screened, crushed and washed to remove impurities, ensuring that the final phosphate can reach food grade quality.

2. Solution preparation
The processed raw materials are added into a reactor with controlled water, temperature and stirring. Phosphorus-containing materials react with water to form a uniform phosphoric acid solution.

3. Filtration
The solution may contain insoluble particles. Through filtration equipment, solid impurities are removed to obtain a clear and clean phosphoric acid solution.

4. Concentration
The filtered solution is transferred to an evaporator. By heating and removing water, the solution is concentrated under controlled temperature and rate to avoid scaling and blockage.

5. Crystallization
When the phosphoric acid solution reaches a certain concentration, phosphate crystals begin to form. Crystallization is promoted by cooling or adding crystallizing agents, and the crystals are then separated by filtration or centrifugation.

6. Drying
The obtained phosphate crystals are dried to remove residual moisture. Different drying methods (hot air, vacuum drying, etc.) are selected to meet food grade moisture and quality requirements.

7. Packaging and storage
After quality inspection, the food grade phosphate is packed in moisture-proof bags or drums. During storage and transportation, strict moisture-proof and contamination-proof measures are taken to ensure product stability and safety.

Food Grade Phosphate FAQs

Here are some frequently asked questions about our phosphate for food products. If you have more questions, feel free to contact us directly.

1. What certifications does your company have for Food Grade Phosphate?

Our Food Grade Phosphates are produced under internationally recognized food safety systems.
We hold certifications such as ISO 22000, HACCP-based quality control, and ISO 9001, ensuring that every batch meets strict global standards for purity, safety and consistency.

2. How do you control the quality and safety of your Food Grade Phosphates?

We implement strict quality control throughout the entire manufacturing process, including:

  • Raw material inspection and screening

  • In-process monitoring during reaction, filtration and drying

  • Final product testing for purity, moisture, pH and functionality

  • Full traceability for each batch, with COA and MSDS available

These measures ensure stable quality and reliable performance for different food applications.

3. In which food applications can Food Grade Phosphates be used?

Food Grade Phosphates can be used in a wide range of products, including:

  • Meat and poultry

  • Surimi and seafood

  • Bakery and noodles

  • Dairy products

  • Beverages and canned foods

They help improve moisture retention, texture, pH stability, flavor and shelf life in various formulations.

4. How can I choose the right phosphate for meat, seafood, or bakery applications?

Each food application requires a different phosphate function:

  • Meat & Poultry: STPP or SHMP improves water retention, tenderness, juiciness, and yield.

  • Seafood: STPP/SHMP helps reduce drip loss and maintain firmness during freezing and thawing.

  • Bakery & Noodles: Sodium Pyrophosphate provides controlled leavening, while STPP/SHMP improves elasticity and color.

If you’re unsure which grade fits your formulation, our technical team can evaluate your process and provide tailored recommendations.

5. Can you provide COA, Halal, Kosher, and MSDS for your Food Grade Phosphates?

Yes. We provide full and up-to-date documentation, including:
