Common Questions
Frequently asked
questions.
Product-specific questions from buyers — grades, documentation, lead times, and compliance.
Is 85% psyllium husk food-grade?
85% grade is food-grade. It does not meet NF, USP, or EP pharmacopoeia thresholds. For supplement or laxative products that cite a pharmacopoeia standard, use 95% grade minimum.
What is the swell volume of 85% psyllium husk?
Minimum 30 ml/g. This reflects the lower mucilage content at 85% purity and is the lowest swell volume in our husk range.
Can 85% psyllium husk be used in animal feed?
Yes. 85% grade is commonly used in cattle feed and compound animal feed as a fibre source. We supply in 25 kg, 50 kg, and 1,000 kg jumbo bags.
What is the MOQ for 85% psyllium husk?
Minimum order is 500 kg. FOB Mundra. COA and packing list included per shipment. Lead time 14–21 days from Unjha.
Does 95% psyllium husk meet the NF monograph?
Yes. 95% grade meets the Psyllium Husk monograph in the National Formulary (NF). Swell volume minimum 40 ml/g. We provide COA annotated to NF parameters on request.
What is the swell volume of 95% psyllium husk?
Minimum 40 ml/g per our specification. This meets the NF threshold and is suitable for dietary supplement and functional food applications.
Can I use 95% psyllium husk for capsule filling?
Yes, at 20–60 mesh. For capsule filling equipment, moisture must be ≤10% at the time of filling to prevent clumping. We can supply with moisture-controlled packaging on request.
How is 95% different from 98% psyllium husk?
95% meets NF. 98% meets USP and EP. The swell volume difference is 40 ml/g (95%) vs 45 ml/g (98%). If your product label or specification cites USP or EP, you need 98% or 99% grade.
Does 98% psyllium husk meet USP and EP standards?
Yes. 98% grade meets USP (Plantago ovata husk) and EP (Ispaghula husk) monograph parameters — swell volume, moisture (≤12%), total ash (≤3.5%), acid-insoluble ash (≤0.5%), and microbiology. COA annotated to your pharmacopoeia on request.
What swell volume does 98% psyllium husk have?
Minimum 45 ml/g per our specification. USP and EP specify a minimum of 40 ml/g, so 98% grade exceeds the pharmacopoeia threshold. Actual COA values are included with each shipment.
Is 98% psyllium husk suitable for laxative products?
Yes. 98% grade is used in laxative capsule fills and sachet products. If your finished product is registered under a USP or EP monograph, confirm with your QA team whether 98% or 99% grade is specified.
What documentation comes with 98% psyllium husk?
COA from NABL-accredited laboratory (swell volume, moisture, ash, microbiology, heavy metals), commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin, and phytosanitary certificate. Halal and Kosher letters of declaration available on request.
What swell volume does 99% psyllium husk have?
Minimum 50 ml/g per our specification. USP and EP monographs specify 40 ml/g minimum; 99% grade consistently exceeds this. Actual test values are on the COA per shipment.
Is your 99% psyllium husk USP, EP, and IP compliant?
Yes. We supply COA annotated to USP (Plantago ovata husk), EP (Ispaghula husk), or IP as required. Parameters include swell volume, moisture, total ash (≤3.0%), acid-insoluble ash (≤0.4%), heavy metals, and full microbiology. Specify your pharmacopoeia edition when requesting a quote.
What is the minimum order for 99% psyllium husk?
500 kg in 10 kg, 25 kg, or 50 kg food-grade bags. Jumbo bags (1,000 kg) available for orders above 1 MT. FOB Mundra. Lead time 14–21 days.
Can I get a sample of 99% psyllium husk with COA before ordering?
Yes. We send 100–500 g samples with a full COA from our NABL-accredited lab. Share your target pharmacopoeia, shipping address, and grade. Sample lead time is 3–5 business days from Unjha, Gujarat.
