Product Introduction
Calcium Acetate (E263), also known as calcium ethanoate, is a calcium salt of acetic acid widely used as a functional ingredient in food, feed, and other industrial applications. It is produced through the reaction of acetic acid with calcium compounds and is available in white powder and granular forms to meet different processing requirements.
As a professional Calcium Acetate manufacturer, supplier, and distributor in China, WEHENGFOOD provides high-quality food-grade Calcium Acetate with stable supply, competitive pricing, and flexible packaging solutions for global customers. Our products comply with international food additive standards and are widely exported for food processing, animal nutrition, and industrial applications.
Calcium Acetate is recognized as food additive E263 and is commonly used as a preservative, acidity regulator, stabilizer, and calcium fortification ingredient. It has good water solubility and excellent compatibility with various food formulations.
Available Forms: Powder & Granular Calcium Acetate
WEHENGFOOD supplies Calcium Acetate in two physical forms:
Calcium Acetate Powder
The powder form is the most commonly used grade for food applications. It features:
- Fine and uniform particle size
- Easy blending with other ingredients
- Good solubility and dispersion
- Suitable for bakery, beverage, dairy, and food formulations
The powder grade is ideal for manufacturers requiring accurate dosing and quick mixing during production.
Calcium Acetate Granular
Granular Calcium Acetate provides improved handling properties compared with fine powder:
- Low dust formation
- Better flowability
- Higher bulk density
- Easier transportation and storage
The granular form is suitable for applications requiring better processing performance and reduced dust during industrial production.

Functions and Usages
Calcium Acetate is a highly soluble calcium salt that provides a reliable source of calcium and acetate for various applications. It is widely used as a calcium supplement ingredient in animal nutrition to support calcium balance, bone development, and overall growth performance in livestock and poultry.
In feed applications, Calcium Acetate helps improve mineral supplementation programs by providing bioavailable calcium for animals. It can be incorporated into feed formulations to support strong skeletal structure, eggshell quality in laying poultry, and normal physiological functions related to calcium metabolism.
Calcium Acetate is also used as an acidity regulator and preservative ingredient in food applications. Its buffering properties help maintain product stability and control acidity levels in certain food formulations.
Available in powder and granular forms, Calcium Acetate offers good solubility, easy handling, and flexible application options for feed manufacturers and food producers. As a professional Calcium Acetate manufacturer and supplier in China, WEHENGFOOD provides high-quality products suitable for global food and feed industries.
