Spirulina Powder · Blue-Green Microalgae Powder for Nutrition, Functional Beverages & Fortified Foods

Name: Spirulina Powder
Brand: Atlas Global Trading Co.
SKU: PE-SPIRULINA-POWDER
Availability: InStock

Spirulina powder is produced from cultivated microalgae (commonly Arthrospira platensis, often marketed as “spirulina”) and used in nutrition and functional-food formulations. It is popular in greens powders, smoothie blends and wellness products, and it is also used in specialty foods where a natural blue-green appearance is part of the concept. In manufacturing, the key success factors are microbiological quality, moisture control, particle size and sensory profile, especially for beverage powders and gummies. Atlas Global Trading Co. supplies food-grade spirulina powder with application-oriented specifications, supported by export documentation and global logistics from Ankara, Türkiye.

Function: Microalgae-based ingredient for nutrition blends, green beverage powders and specialty foods

Typical format: Fine blue-green to green powder; shade and dispersibility depend on grade

Key feature: Specification options for microbiology, flowability, taste profile and processing needs

Botanical and algae ingredients vary by cultivation method and processing. Atlas helps define fit-for-purpose grades and documentation for your destination markets. Customers remain responsible for confirming local regulatory compliance, claims and labeling.

Product overview

What spirulina contributes to finished products

Spirulina is used for nutrition positioning, color contribution and product differentiation in functional formats. From a formulation perspective, stability, dispersibility and sensory management are often the deciding factors. Grade selection should consider the end format (beverage powder, tablet, capsule, gummy or fortified food) and the process steps (heat, shear, pH and shelf-life conditions).

Key characteristics

Ingredient type: Microalgae powder (commonly Arthrospira/spirulina), cultivated and dried.
Primary roles:
- Color contribution in powders and blends (blue-green to green tone),
- Nutrition and “greens” positioning in wellness products,
- Ingredient story for plant-based and functional formulations.
Appearance: Blue-green to green powder; shade depends on cultivation and drying.
Sensory profile:
- Can be marine-like or grassy; flavor masking is common in beverages and gummies,
- Chocolate, vanilla and fruit profiles can help balance the taste.
Dispersibility and handling:
- Particle size influences mouthfeel and sedimentation in beverages,
- Moisture control is important to maintain free-flowing powder performance.

Atlas can help align a spirulina grade to your product format, including dispersion targets, sensory requirements and microbiological expectations.

Indicative specification points

Specifications are confirmed per grade and destination requirements. Typical control points include:

Moisture: controlled for stability, flowability and shelf life.
Particle size / mesh: selected for beverage mouthfeel or for compression performance in tablets.
Microbiological quality: defined targets suitable for intended use and market requirements.
Contaminants: heavy metals and other parameters within required limits for food/supplement use.
Color and appearance: shade uniformity defined per grade.
Bulk density: relevant for dosing consistency and packaging yield.

Each lot is supplied with a Certificate of Analysis (COA) and specification sheet. Additional documentation can include allergen statements, GMO status (where applicable), origin declarations and other compliance documents based on the supply chain and destination needs.

Beverage powders and drink mixes

Greens powders and smoothie blends: combined with plant fibers, fruit powders, sweeteners and flavors.
Instant drink mixes: sachets and premixes (validate dispersibility and sedimentation control).
Concept RTD products: used in some developments; validate heat treatment and shelf-life stability.

Nutrition and supplement formats

Tablets and capsules: used in microalgae supplement lines (grade selection for flow and compression).
Gummies and chewables: used in wellness gummies with masking systems.
Premixes and functional blends: combined with vitamins, minerals and other botanical powders.

Fortified foods

Protein powders and meal replacement blends: used in plant-based nutrition platforms.
Bakery and snack concepts: used in niche lines where a green/blue-green positioning is desirable.

Usage and formulation guidance

Dosage: depends on target positioning, taste tolerance and color intensity. Optimize through trials.
Dispersion strategy:
- Use high-shear mixing or pre-blending with carriers to improve uniformity,
- For beverage powders, consider agglomeration/instantization strategies where applicable.
Sensory management:
- Use masking flavors (cocoa, vanilla, fruit) and sweetness systems to reduce marine notes,
- Balance acids carefully, as low pH can change perceived taste and stability in some systems.
Stability:
- Control moisture and oxygen exposure to protect appearance and aroma,
- Validate color and taste over shelf life in your packaging format.
Labelling:
- Typically declared as “spirulina powder” or “spirulina” depending on local rules and product type.
