Description
STANDARDISED BOTANICAL EXTRACT
Aloe vera Leaf — Freeze-Dried 200:1
Freeze-dried aloe at 200:1 is a concentrate of the inner leaf gel, not the whole leaf. The distinction is the first thing experienced buyers check, because whole-leaf material carries the latex and its anthraquinones, which many markets restrict.

Buyer Decision Guide
Specify inner-leaf, decolourised or whole-leaf at enquiry. Under the same “aloe powder” name these are three different products with different regulatory standing.
- Part used: inner leaf gel. Confirm this in writing if your market tests for aloin.
- Ratio: 200:1 freeze-dried concentrate; the drying method is stated because spray-dried material behaves differently.
- Aloin: declared per lot. This is the value buyers screen when anthraquinone limits apply.
- Solubility: water-soluble; dissolves readily but thickens at higher concentrations.
- Appearance: off-white to light cream. A brown tone points to heat damage during drying.
- Documentation: COA, specification sheet and SDS with each batch.
How This Grade Differs
Existing aloe pages are a leaf extract and a 5:1 powder. Neither is freeze-dried at 200:1, and the freeze-drying step is what preserves the polysaccharide fraction buyers pay for.
Quality and Documentation
Released on a batch certificate covering identity by TLC, ratio, aloin content, moisture, heavy metals and microbiology.
