Zinc Oxide Food Grade (FCC)
Zinc Oxide High Grade 99.9% FCC is a high-purity ZnO grade developed for applications where control over impurity levels and consistency are essential.
The product is supplied as High Grade ZnO, ensuring that purity and key heavy metals (Pb, Cd, As) are controlled in line with Food Chemical Codex (FCC) specification limits.
Positioning
Designed for food and nutritional applications requiring reliable, high-purity zinc oxide with a controlled impurity profile and consistent performance.
The product specification, as defined in the Technical Data Sheet, is aligned with the specification limits of the FCC monograph for Zinc Oxide, particularly regarding purity and heavy metals (Pb, Cd, As).
With a typical lead level of ≤ 5 ppm (below the standard market limit of 10 ppm), the product offers a controlled impurity profile ensuring a high level of consistency, safety and reliability.
FCC alignment refers to product specification limits (purity and impurity profile) and does not imply certification under food safety management systems such as HACCP or GFSI.
