Elevate your clean beauty formulations with our high-purity Sodium Phytate Powder. As the sodium salt of phytic acid, this 100% natural, plant-derived chelating agent serves as a sustainable, eco-friendly alternative to synthetic EDTA. It is a powerful, white, water-soluble powder designed to bind free metal ions, ensuring your skincare, haircare, and cosmetic formulations stay fresh, stable, and effective for longer.
Key Benefits:
Natural Chelator & Stabilizer: Binds trace metal ions (iron, copper, calcium) that enter products through water or raw ingredients, preventing degradation, discolouration, and unpleasant odors.
Preservative Booster: Enhances the efficacy of your preservative system by removing metals that microorganisms need to survive.
Antioxidant Support: Boosts the antioxidant performance of vitamin C, vitamin E, and natural oils, delaying rancidity.
Skin Conditioning: Offers indirect skin benefits by promoting a stable, efficient formula, which improves hydration, enhances product texture, and helps regulate sebum.
Clean Beauty Compliant: Biodegradable, non-toxic, and derived from sustainable plant sources like rice or corn.
Usage & Formulation:
Function: Chelating agent, preservative booster, antioxidant booster.
Solubility: Highly soluble in water.
Recommended Usage Rate: 0.05% – 0.5% (Up to 0.5% for active skin brightening/exfoliation).
How to add: Add to the water phase of your formulation. It is not heat sensitive, but it is best added before heating.
pH Stability: Works well across a broad range but is often used in alkaline systems (pH 10–12 for raw powder, but often used to help stabilize, though it may raise pH, so adjust accordingly).

Creams, Lotions, & Serums
Natural Cleansers & Body Washes

As of August 29, 2025, there is a 35% tariff or duty charge imposed on all goods coming into the U.S. from Canada. The United States mandates that all packages entering the U.S. from Canada must have their duties prepaid (settled upfront).
Our "USA only" pricing incorporates the necessary duty and processing fee calculated separately for each item. The advantage is that we charge the exact duty for each item and use the most economical shipping rates for orders bound for the U.S. Consequently, our prices are more budget-friendly compared to the Delivered Duty Paid (DDP) shipping option, where you might pay a lower item price but face exorbitant shipping costs, as the estimation for duty and duty processing fees is included in the shipping charges. In the DDP scenario, shipping companies rely on a general estimate for duties which can exceed the true amount, as they do not possess the exact information for each unique item.
