Applications and sourcing options

Check whether this product fits the buyer's actual application.

Clear application, grade, package, and document notes help separate real sourcing demand from a vague price check.

Use context

Common applications

  • Food and beverage acidulant sourcing where local regulations permit use
  • Ingredient distribution requiring food-grade documentation and batch COA review
  • Industrial formulation procurement where low moisture and impurity control are important
  • Import consolidation with 25 kg bags or jumbo-bag formats
  • Tender or RFQ comparison against FCC, BP, USP, EP, or customer-defined specifications
How we compare

Sourcing options

  • Request a firm quotation for 1 MT MOQ, 25 kg bags, FOB China port
  • Request India CIF quotation with estimated transit time and document list
  • Ask for sample availability with matching pre-shipment COA
  • Compare manufacturer-origin options such as Ensign, TTCA, or other China citric acid producers
  • Request third-party inspection before container loading
  • Request palletized and non-palletized packing price comparison
Human review

Compliance notes

  • Verify CAS 77-92-9, product name, grade, and assay on the supplier COA before shipment
  • Request batch-specific COA covering assay, moisture, sulfate ash, sulfate, chloride, oxalate, calcium salt, lead, arsenic, and appearance
  • Ask for food-grade supporting documents such as specification sheet, COA, allergen statement if applicable, non-GMO statement if required, halal/kosher certificates if needed, and manufacturing standard references
  • Confirm whether the offered material complies with the buyer’s target standard, such as FCC, USP, BP, EP, GB, or customer-specific food additive specifications; do not rely on listing text alone
  • Check destination import requirements independently, especially for food additive registration, labeling, and documentation in India or other overseas markets
  • Citric acid is commonly shipped as non-DG, but buyer should request the latest SDS and transport classification statement for the exact product and packing
  • Confirm HS code 2918140000 with customs broker, as classification may depend on destination-country rules and documentation
  • Supplier is listed on Made-in-China.com as an audited supplier, but buyer should conduct independent supplier qualification, factory traceability, and third-party inspection where needed
