Aloe Vera Whole Leaf Dried Powder – Full-Spectrum Natural Ingredient

Source: Aloe Barbadensis Miller | Form: Whole Leaf Powder | Compliance: QB/T2488, QB/T2489 | MOQ: 10 kg

Hersoncare Aloe Vera Whole Leaf Dried Powder is a premium, full-spectrum Plant Extract that delivers the complete nutritional profile of the aloe vera plant. Unlike conventional gel-only powders, our whole-leaf formulation includes both the inner gel and outer rind, providing a richer composition of bioactive compounds including higher levels of aloverose (≥25,000 mg/kg) and naturally occurring aloin (≥2,500 mg/kg).

Manufactured using a proprietary low-temperature drying process (≤45°C), this powder retains over 95% of the plant's natural actives, ensuring maximum efficacy in cosmetic, nutraceutical, and food applications. The fine green-yellow powder offers excellent solubility and color stability, making it a versatile Cosmetic Raw Material and functional food ingredient.

Integrate this powder with other Hersoncare ingredients for enhanced formulations: combine with Sodium Hyaluronate for superior moisturizing skincare, blend with Freeze Dried Fruit Powder for nutritious beverages, or mix with Vitamins and Minerals for comprehensive dietary supplements.

FAQ

Q: What's the difference between whole-leaf and gel-only powder?

A: Whole-leaf powder includes both the inner gel and outer rind, containing higher levels of aloin and other phytonutrients from the rind. Gel-only powder contains only the inner gel and is typically lighter in color but lower in certain bioactive compounds.

Q: Is the aloin content safe for cosmetic use?

A: Yes. Our aloin levels (≥2,500 mg/kg) are within safe limits for topical application and provide additional skin benefits. For sensitive skin applications, we recommend patch testing as with any new ingredient.

Q: Can this powder be used in clear formulations?

A: While it has a natural green-yellow color, its excellent color stability means it won't degrade or change significantly in clear products exposed to light. For completely transparent products, consider our decolorized freeze-dried version.

Q: Do you offer custom particle sizes or blends?

A: Yes. We can customize particle size (80-200 mesh) and create blended powders with Freeze Dried Fruit Powder or Vitamins and Minerals according to your specific requirements.
