By Regal Impex – Food-Grade Amla Powder Exporter, India
Understand purity, moisture, and safety scores – and why it matters for your imports.
If you are importing food-grade Amla Powder for nutraceuticals, herbal supplements, or cosmetic formulations, the Certificate of Analysis (COA) is more than just a document – it’s your proof of quality, compliance, and trust.
Yet, many buyers skim through a COA without fully understanding what each section means. This can lead to delays, compliance issues, or, in worst cases, product recalls.
At Regal Impex, every batch of our export-ready Amla Powder comes with a detailed SGS/NABL-certified COA so our clients know exactly what they’re buying. In this guide, we’ll help you read a COA like a pro – and explain how we make sure ours meets the highest international standards.
What is a COA and Why is it Important?
A Certificate of Analysis (COA) is an official document issued by the manufacturer or an accredited third-party lab. It verifies that the product meets the agreed specifications for purity, safety, and composition.
For herbal ingredients like Amla Powder, a COA is crucial because:
It ensures compliance with EU, US FDA, Middle East, and Asia-Pacific regulations
It confirms the product’s safety for human consumption
It verifies the nutritional and functional value promised on the label
Without a COA, you’re essentially buying blind.
How to Read an Amla Powder COA
- Product Identification
This section confirms that the COA matches your purchase order. Look for:
Botanical Name: Phyllanthus emblica
Form: Fine powder (mesh size mentioned)
Batch/Lot Number: For full traceability
Date of Manufacture & Expiry Date
✅ At Regal Impex: Every batch is uniquely coded and fully traceable from sourcing farms to your port.
- Purity & Composition
Amla Powder should be 100% pure, without fillers, maltodextrin, or artificial additives.
✅ At Regal Impex: Our COA shows 100% pure Amla Powder, verified through lab analysis.
- Moisture Content
Moisture affects shelf life and microbial growth.
Ideal range: ≤ 8% for long-term stability
Higher moisture can cause clumping, reduced potency, and microbial contamination
✅ At Regal Impex: Our moisture content consistently stays between 5–7%, ensuring a 24-month shelf life.
- Microbial Analysis
Essential for meeting international food safety standards.
Key checks include:
Total Plate Count (TPC)
Yeast & Mold Count
E. coli, Salmonella – must be absent
✅ At Regal Impex: Every batch is tested for microbiological safety in accredited labs before shipment.
- Heavy Metal Testing
Global regulations limit heavy metal content for food products. This includes:
Lead (Pb)
Cadmium (Cd)
Mercury (Hg)
Arsenic (As)
✅ At Regal Impex: Our heavy metal levels are well within EU and US permissible limits.
- Nutritional Values
Amla’s claim to fame is its Vitamin C content – about 20 times that of oranges. Your COA should confirm this along with other nutrient values like polyphenols and antioxidants.
✅ At Regal Impex: We highlight Vitamin C content clearly on the COA for marketability and compliance.
