What is Organic Psyllium Husk Powder 98% - 20 mesh (SA DC31734)

Organic Psyllium Husk Powder 98% – 20 mesh is a premium-quality excipient and active ingredient widely used in pharmaceutical and nutraceutical applications. Sourced from organically cultivated Plantago ovata, the husks undergo controlled mechanical processing to achieve a fine 20 mesh particle size and a purity level of 98%.

This material is recognised for its exceptional swelling index and water-binding capacity, forming a mucilaginous gel upon hydration. These properties make it suitable for bulk-forming laxative formulations and gastrointestinal health products. The fine mesh size ensures improved uniformity, dispersibility, and consistency in dosage forms.

Manufactured to meet stringent quality and traceability standards, this psyllium husk powder aligns with pharmacopeial expectations where applicable and supports clean label, plant-based formulation requirements. It is free from synthetic additives and compatible with a wide range of oral dosage forms.

Applications & Functionalities

Organic Psyllium Husk Powder serves as both an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) and a functional excipient, particularly in gastrointestinal and digestive health formulations. Its primary function is as a bulk-forming agent, promoting regular bowel movements through its ability to absorb water and increase stool mass. In solid dosage forms such as tablets, capsules, and sachets, it provides fibre enrichment and supports controlled hydration properties. In powder blends and oral suspensions, the 20 mesh grade enhances flowability and dispersion, ensuring consistent dosing and patient compliance. Additionally, it can be utilised as a binder and disintegrant in tablet formulations due to its natural swelling behaviour. Its compatibility with other excipients and actives makes it a versatile option for pharmaceutical development, particularly in laxative, cholesterol management, and fibre supplementation products.
