Lecithin Granular (Comext) is a food-grade phospholipid ingredient supplied in granule form for B2B manufacturing. Lecithin is commonly described as an amphiphilic (water- and oil-attracting) mixture of phospholipids used to emulsify, homogenize, and improve texture/processing in a wide range of formulations.
In commercial applications, granular lecithin is widely used as a processing aid and functional excipient—often selected for blendability, handling, and dispersion in dry systems. Deoiled/low-oil lecithin formats are also common in the market and are often supplied in granular form to support easier handling and dispersion (final source type and grade should be confirmed per COA/spec).
Applications
Commonly used in:
- Dietary supplements (softgels, capsules, tablets, powder blends; excipient/emulsifier role depends on format)
- Functional foods & beverages (instant drink mixes, nutrition powders, bakery, confectionery, fat-based systems—application dependent)
- Food processing as an emulsifier/processing aid in applicable formulations
- Cosmetic & personal care (emulsifier / skin-conditioning ingredient use depends on INCI, region, and finished-product requirements)
