As an accredited Astaxanthin factory, we enforce strict quality protocols—every batch undergoes rigorous testing to ensure consistent efficacy and safety standards.
| Packing | Astaxanthin is packaged in a sealed, opaque 100g plastic bottle with a tamper-evident lid and clear labeling for safety. |
| Shipping | Astaxanthin is shipped in tightly sealed, light-resistant containers under cool, dry conditions to preserve stability. It is typically classified as a non-hazardous material, but should be handled with care to avoid contamination or degradation. Ensure compliance with local transport regulations and provide necessary documentation for safe and efficient delivery. |
| Storage | Astaxanthin should be stored in a tightly sealed, light-resistant container, away from direct sunlight, heat, and moisture. Ideally, it should be kept at temperatures below 25°C (77°F) in a cool, dry place. Exposure to air and light can degrade its potency, so minimizing contact with oxygen and protecting it from light is essential for maintaining stability and quality. |
