Premium Marine Collagen Peptides Manufacturer

Marine collagen peptides are small pieces of protein (peptides) derived from collagen found in marine sources, primarily the skin and scales of fish. The large collagen protein is broken down through a process called hydrolysis to make it more easily digestible and absorbable.

Marine collagen peptides are commonly taken for their potential benefits for skin health (improving hydration, elasticity, reducing wrinkles), hair and nail strength, and supporting joint health. They provide amino acids that are building blocks for the body's own collagen production.

Marine collagen (Type I) is primarily composed of Type I collagen, similar to bovine collagen (Type I and III). Chicken collagen is often a source of Type II collagen, which is more prevalent in cartilage. The main difference is the source and potentially the amino acid profile composition and molecular weight distribution after hydrolysis, which can affect absorption and specific benefits. Marine collagen is often preferred for skin benefits and by those avoiding bovine/porcine products.

Marine collagen peptides are made by taking marine raw materials (like fish skin/scales), extracting the collagen, and then breaking it down into small peptides through hydrolysis (using enzymes or acid). The resulting solution is then purified and dried into a powder.

High-quality marine collagen peptides are typically processed to remove most of the odor and flavor, resulting in a neutral or very mild taste. However, quality varies between manufacturers.

Yes, marine collagen peptides are hydrolyzed into small peptides, which makes them highly bioavailable and easily absorbed by the digestive system compared to intact collagen.

Marine collagen is often considered a more sustainable option as it is derived from byproducts of the fish industry (skin and scales) that might otherwise be discarded.

No, individuals with fish allergies should avoid marine collagen peptides as they are derived from fish.

The molecular weight of marine collagen peptides is not a single number but a range. For easily soluble and absorbable peptides, the average molecular weight typically ranges from 1,000 to 5,000 Daltons, much smaller than intact collagen.

Marine collagen peptides are generally considered safe for most people when consumed as directed. As with any supplement, it's advisable to consult with a healthcare professional before starting use, especially if you have underlying health conditions or allergies.

In the industry, they are often used interchangeably. Generally, "Marine Collagen" implies sourcing from ocean fish (like wild cod), while "Fish Collagen" is a broader term that includes fresh-water farmed fish (like tilapia). As a manufacturer, we offer both specifications to meet different price points and marketing claims.

Yes. Beyond supplying bulk raw powder (20kg/bag), we offer one-stop OEM solutions including blending, canning, and sachet filling for your private brand.

We utilize a proprietary deodorizing and filtration process during enzymatic hydrolysis. This removes fats and impurities that cause off-flavors, resulting in a neutral tasting powder suitable for unflavored applications.
