Natural Tartaric Acid

Tartaric Acid Powder - Natural Quality for Versatile Applications

Tartaric acid, also known as E 334, is the organic L(+)-tartaric acid primarily found in grapes, responsible for the distinct sour taste of many fruits. In its pure form, it is a colourless and odourless powder, highly soluble in water and easily soluble in alcohol.

Uses of Tartaric Acid

Our tartaric acid is sourced from natural origins within the EU, making it an ideal choice for both food and technical applications:

• Food Additive (E 334): Tartaric acid serves as a preservative and acidifier, commonly used in the production of tinned fruits and vegetables, soft drinks, cocktails, jellies, and confectionery. Combined with sodium bicarbonate, it forms cream of tartar.

• Wine Production: L-tartaric acid plays a vital role in winemaking. It reduces the pH during fermentation to inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria, while also acting as a preservative. It is particularly useful for adjusting acidity levels in wines, in accordance with current regulations.

• Technical Applications: Tartaric acid is effective for cleaning aluminium, copper, or iron surfaces. It also helps to slow the hardening process of building materials like plaster and cement. 

Is tartaric acid halal?

Yes, our tartaric acid is halal certified and suitable for the production of halal-compliant products.

Is tartaric acid alcohol?

No, tartaric acid itself does not contain alcohol, although it is soluble in alcohol. When used in products with alcohol—such as wine or cocktails—it contributes to the flavour balance but does not contain any alcoholic components.

Notes

Avoid dust formation. Tartaric acid should be stored tightly closed at room temperature in a dry, well-ventilated place.
