Psyllium Husk (80%) is an economical, industrial-grade fiber derived from the outer husk of Plantago ovata seeds. With a purity level of approximately 80%, this grade contains a blend of husk, plant particles, and mucilage, making it well-suited for non-food applications and bulk industrial use where cost-efficiency is the primary concern.
While lower in purity compared to higher grades like 95% or 99%, Psyllium Husk (80%) still offers essential swelling, water-retention, and bulk-forming properties. It is commonly used in animal feed formulations, herbal powder blends, agricultural soil conditioners, and natural binders in pellet manufacturing. Its water absorption ability improves gut function in animals, enhances binding in tablet and capsule pre-mixes, and helps maintain moisture levels in soil and seed treatments.
This grade of Psyllium Husk may appear darker and contain more plant residue, but it still performs functionally in high-volume production environments. It is favored by manufacturers who require large quantities of fiber but are not concerned with food-grade standards, fine texture, or appearance.
Our Psyllium Husk (80%) is processed in an industrial facility and undergoes basic cleaning and sieving processes. While not intended for direct human consumption in dietary products, it complies with essential safety standards for industrial applications.
