Explore our export-ready, certified organic and functional plant protein & dietary fiber ingredients tailored for sports nutrition, functional food, and dietary supplement manufacturers.
Quantifiable quality indicators and production capacity supporting international brand owners and contract packagers.
Understanding Edestin, Albumin ratios, solubility dynamics, and allergen-free formulation advantages.
Hemp protein (derived from Cannabis sativa L. seed cake) features a unique protein architecture composed of approximately 65% Edestin (a legumin-class globulin) and 35% Albumin. Unlike soy or dairy proteins, Edestin is exceptionally easy to digest due to its molecular structure, which lacks trypsin inhibitors that cause gastric distress. It closely mimics human blood plasma protein, ensuring optimal biological availability and rapid amino acid transport.
For procurement officers, food scientists, and product developers seeking sustainable, non-GMO, non-allergenic plant protein sources, hemp protein offers an unparalleled nutritional signature. It contains all 9 essential amino acids (EAAs), with high concentrations of Branched-Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs)—L-Leucine, L-Isoleucine, and L-Valine—making it an ideal active ingredient in sports nutrition, vegan meal replacement shakes, and functional dietary supplements.

From seed selection and mechanical cold defatting to fine jet-milling and automated contract packaging.
Our processing mills employ continuous hydraulic and screw cold-pressing techniques below 45°C. This solvent-free (hexane-free) extraction preserves heat-sensitive amino acids, essential omega-3/omega-6 fatty acids, and natural anti-oxidants.
Overcoming gritty mouthfeel in ready-to-mix (RTM) beverages: Our state-of-the-art air jet mills reduce particle size down to 200 mesh (75 microns), vastly improving suspension dispersion and solubility in protein shakes.
Every seed batch undergoes triple-stage mechanical dehulling prior to extraction. Independent HPLC laboratory analysis verifies zero detectable delta-9-THC, CBD, or related cannabinoids, ensuring 100% WADA & FDA compliance.
We blend hemp protein powders with soluble prebiotics (chicory root extract inulin, Jerusalem artichoke FOS) and botanical extracts to optimize gut health digestive claims, mouthfeel, and viscosity control.
Full OEM flexibility: From 25kg multi-wall paper bags with PE liners for commercial manufacturers to retail-ready standing pouches, canisters, single-serve sachets, and custom printed tubs.
Fully compliant with cGMP, USDA Organic, EU Organic, Kosher, Halal, ISO22000, and Non-GMO Project Verified standards. Every batch ships with a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA).
Combining US-based distribution accountability with direct-from-mill manufacturing economics.
With headquarters in California (Aliso Viejo, CA) and strategically located US regional distribution hubs, we maintain ready-to-ship inventory positions. Spot-market orders ship within 1–3 business days, minimizing lead times and eliminating supply chain bottlenecks for North American and European brand owners.
We qualify each processing mill on strict quality metrics, continuous process controls, heavy metal screenings (Arsenic, Cadmium, Lead, Mercury), pesticide residue panels, and microbiological safety before any product joins our approved supply portfolio.
Every shipment is accompanied by a batch-specific COA, Technical Data Sheet (TDS), Allergen Declarations, Non-GMO verification, heavy metal test reports, and organic transaction certificates where applicable. Your quality assurance team receives turnkey audit compliance.
Strategic insights for procurement managers planning product innovation over the next 3 to 5 years.
The global plant-based protein market is undergoing a seismic shift away from legacy soy and allergen-prone dairy ingredients. Driven by consumer demand for clean-label, non-allergenic, and environmentally sustainable options, hemp protein is rapidly establishing itself as a cornerstone ingredient in multi-source protein blends.
Historically, hemp protein was limited by its dark green color and earthy, bitter flavor profile. Advanced enzymatic debittering, membrane filtration, and mechanical de-husking technologies now yield neutral-tasting off-white protein isolates. This breakthroughs opens massive market opportunities in sports drink RTDs, dairy-free yogurts, and plant-based milk formulations.
ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) mandates are reshaping vendor selection. Hemp cultivation requires up to 50% less water than soy and zero synthetic pesticides while capturing 2x more atmospheric carbon per acre than traditional forests. Sourcing cold-pressed hemp protein allows enterprise brands to claim carbon-neutral ingredient sourcing on retail packaging.
Formulators are moving away from single-ingredient powders toward multi-functional gut-health complexes. Combining high-fiber hemp protein matrices with prebiotic chicory root inulin or Jerusalem artichoke extracts creates a synergistic synbiotic product that addresses both muscle recovery and microbiome wellness in a single serving.
Detailed technical, regulatory, and commercial answers to streamline your supplier evaluation process.
Every lot is delivered with a comprehensive QA packet, including a batch-specific Certificate of Analysis (COA), Technical Data Sheet (TDS), Safety Data Sheet (SDS), Allergen Breakdown, Non-GMO Statement, Heavy Metal & Pesticide Screening Panel, and (where applicable) NOP/EU Organic, Kosher, and Halal certificates. Site audit documents are available upon request.
We source industrial hemp seeds strictly from certified low-cannabinoid seed varieties (<0.2% field limit). During processing, seeds undergo thorough mechanical de-husking to isolate the protein-rich kernel. Final powders undergo high-sensitivity HPLC lab testing to confirm non-detectable levels of delta-9-THC (<0.001%) and CBD, ensuring seamless customs clearance worldwide.
For standard stocked ingredients shipping from our US warehouses, MOQs start at 25 kg (1 drum/bag) with lead times of 1–3 business days. For direct-from-mill custom contract orders, custom mesh sizes, or specialized private label packaging, MOQs generally start at 500 kg to 1,000 kg with lead times of 3 to 6 weeks.
Yes. We offer fine-milling customized from standard 80 mesh up to 200 ultra-fine mesh (75 microns). Ultra-fine micronization dramatically decreases sedimentation velocity in liquid preparations and eliminates gritty mouthfeel in ready-to-mix beverage formulations.
Yes, we provide 100g to 500g lab samples along with matching lot certificates to qualified manufacturers, food scientists, and formulators so that sensory, bench-top stability, and solubility testing can be completed before commercial orders.
Our OEM/ODM services include custom recipe formulation, flavor masking, dry powder blending, pill encapsulation, tablet pressing, and automated packaging. Retail options include printed stand-up pouching, plastic/PET tubs, sachet stick packs, and bulk tote boxes with complete graphic design support.
