Psyllium Husk 99% Purity: Supplier Guide for Pharma Buyers
Product.

Psyllium husk at 99% purity represents the pharmaceutical grade of the product — the highest husk content available from Indian processing facilities. At this grade, the husk content (the seed coat of Plantago ovata) is at least 99% by weight, with a minimum swell volume of 50 ml/g. This swell volume is the primary functional specification for laxative monographs under USP, European Pharmacopoeia (EP), and Indian Pharmacopoeia (IP).

For pharmaceutical buyers, 99% grade must be accompanied by a full COA showing swell volume, moisture (≤12%), total ash (≤3%), acid-insoluble ash (≤0.4%), heavy metals (Lead ≤2 ppm, Arsenic ≤1 ppm), and microbiology (E. coli absent, Salmonella absent, TPC ≤10,000 cfu/g). These parameters map directly to the Plantago ovata husk monographs in USP and EP. Buyers should request test reports from an NABL-accredited laboratory in India.

Unjha district in Gujarat is the primary psyllium processing hub in India, accounting for over 80% of global supply. We supply 99% grade husk in 10 kg, 25 kg, and 50 kg food-grade bags with full documentation.
