Frequent Uses

Food Fortification
Widely used as a calcium supplement in food products, particularly in dairy products, cereals, juices, and nutritional drinks. It helps fortify these products with calcium, supporting bone health and meeting the recommended daily intake for calcium.

Pharmaceutical Applications
For the formulation of tablets, capsules, and powders. It is often employed as a filler, binder, or excipient in the manufacturing of oral medications. Additionally, it is used in the preparation of calcium-based formulations for the treatment of calcium deficiencies.

Baking and Food Processing
As a leavening agent and as a stabiliser in certain formulations. It helps to improve the texture and quality of baked goods while also providing a source of calcium. It is commonly found in the formulation of self-raising flours and baking powders.

Calcium Source in Animal Feed
As a source of calcium and phosphorus, which are essential nutrients for the growth and development of livestock and poultry. It is commonly added to animal feeds to ensure proper bone and teeth formation and to support overall health.

Dental Care Products
Used in dental care products such as toothpaste and mouthwash due to its ability to remineralise tooth enamel. It helps in the repair and strengthening of teeth, making it a key ingredient in oral hygiene formulations aimed at reducing tooth decay and promoting dental health.
