Citric Acid (C₆H₈O₇) is a naturally occurring tricarboxylic acid found in citrus fruits, universally valued for its acidity, high solubility, and chelating properties. Citric Acid (2-Hydroxy-1,2,3-propane-tricarboxylic acid or E330) available in two main commercial forms: Citric Acid Monohydrate and Anhydrous Citric Acid, the difference being the presence or absence of water molecules in the crystalline structure. Both forms are supplied in IP/USP grades, ensuring high purity and consistent performance. Citric Acid serves multiple industries including Food & Beverage Manufacturing, Pharmaceuticals & Nutraceuticals, Cosmetics & Personal Care, Industrial Cleaning & Detergents, Chemical Manufacturing, and other specialized applications. We are among the trusted citric acid manufacturers and suppliers in the United States and worldwide, offering high-quality monohydrate and anhydrous grades that meet US quality and safety standards, with reliable lead times and global supply capability.
