Food Grade Magnesium Oxide (MgO) 

is a highly purified magnesium source that complies with international food safety regulations. With its high magnesium content, excellent stability, and cost efficiency, it is widely used in the food, dietary supplement, and nutrition industries.

1. Nutritional Fortification

Food Grade Magnesium Oxide is commonly used as a magnesium fortifier to supplement essential magnesium in daily diets.

Typical applications include:

• Fortified foods (cereals, nutritional powders)

• Dietary supplements (tablets, capsules, sachets)

• Multivitamin and mineral premixes

Key advantages:

• Very high magnesium content (up to approx. 60%)

• Good stability during processing and storage

• Suitable for dry blending systems

In food applications, it is labeled as Magnesium Oxide (INS 530 / E530).

2. Acidity Regulator (pH Adjuster)

Magnesium Oxide can be used to regulate acidity and stabilize pH in food systems.

Commonly used in:

• Cocoa and chocolate products

• Grain-based and bakery ingredients

It helps to:

• Neutralize excess acidity

• Improve taste balance and product stability

3. Anti-Caking Agent

Due to its excellent moisture absorption capacity, Food Grade Magnesium Oxide functions effectively as an anti-caking agent, preventing lump formation in powdered foods.

Typical applications:

• Table salt

• Seasonings and spice blends

• Milk powder and instant beverage powders

Only a small dosage is required, with no impact on flavor or appearance.

4. Dietary Supplements & Health Nutrition

Magnesium Oxide is widely used in:

• Magnesium tablets and capsules

• Functional nutrition products

• Mineral blends

Magnesium contributes to:

• Normal muscle and nerve function

• Energy metabolism

• Reduction of magnesium deficiency risks

5. Processing Aid & Carrier

In food processing, Food Grade MgO can also serve as:

• A carrier for functional ingredients

• A flowability enhancer in powder formulations

It supports efficient handling and consistent dosing during production.

6. Regulatory Compliance & Quality Control

Our Food Grade Magnesium Oxide complies with major international standards, including:

• China: GB 1886.235

• EU: E530

• USA: FCC / FDA GRAS

Strict control of impurities ensures:

• Low heavy metals (Pb, As, Hg)

• Low iron and chloride content

• High product safety and consistency
