Description

A high-purity, water-insoluble iron (II) salt known for its remarkable elemental iron density and therapeutic effectiveness in treating iron deficiency is ferrous fumarate powder (chemical formula: C₄H₂FeO₄). It usually has an elemental iron level of 32–34%, which is among the highest among widely used oral iron supplements, and a purity of ≥98% (confirmed by titration and X-ray diffraction). It is a fine, dark brown to reddish-brown crystalline powder that has no smell, a taste that is slightly metallic but not as strong as ferrous sulfate, and exceptional thermal stability (it breaks down at about 280°C without producing harmful byproducts).

Competitive Advantage
Unmatched Elemental Iron Density: With 32–34% elemental iron, it delivers 20–30% more iron per unit weight than ferrous sulfate (20% iron) and ferrous gluconate (12% iron). This reduces daily dose counts (e.g., 1 tablet vs. 2–3 for ferrous sulfate), improving patient adherence.
Cost-Effectiveness for Large-Scale Use: As a low-cost iron source—with abundant raw materials and mature production processes—it is ideal for mass food fortification and animal feed applications. It lowers per-unit iron costs compared to chelated iron (e.g., iron citrate).
Superior Stability Compared to Other Ferrous Salts: It is more resistant to oxidation (conversion to less absorbable iron(III)) than ferrous sulfate, especially in humid or acidic environments. This preserves potency during long-term storage and food processing (e.g., baking, extrusion).
Minimal Aesthetic Impact on Food Fortification: Its dark brown color blends naturally with whole-grain, chocolate, or fortified products—avoiding the "grayish" discoloration that ferrous sulfate causes in white flour or light-colored cereals.
Proven Clinical Efficacy: Decades of research confirm its effectiveness. For example, a 12-week study showed that daily intake of ferrous fumarate (delivering elemental iron) increased hemoglobin levels by 2.1 g/dL in IDA patients—comparable to ferrous sulfate but with fewer side effects.
Versatility in Formulations: It is compatible with common excipients (e.g., microcrystalline cellulose, magnesium stearate) for tablets and capsules. It can also be microencapsulated to reduce gastrointestinal irritation or improve solubility in liquid products (e.g., pediatric syrups).
Regulatory Approval Globally: Approved for use in over 180 countries, it has a well-established safety profile (no upper limit for food fortification) and clear dosing guidelines for all populations—building trust among manufacturers and consumers.
