Buyer intent coverage
Calcium D-pantothenate (feed grade) — what it is, where it is used, how it is chosen
Calcium D-pantothenate supplies vitamin B5 and must be specified on the D-isomer basis, since only the D form is biologically active and racemic material is a separate identity with half the activity. Prairie and Ontario premix blenders building poultry and swine vitamin packs are the main Canadian buyers, with additional demand from pet food formulators. Hygroscopicity is the practical handling issue at the blending stage.
Primary uses
- Supplying vitamin B5 in poultry and swine vitamin premixes
- Pet food and aquafeed fortification
- Milk replacer and starter feed manufacture
Applications
- Vitamin premix production
- Complete feed manufacture through a premix
- Specialty and companion animal diets
Advantages
- High declared activity on the D-isomer basis
- Stable in dry premix under controlled humidity
- Standardised specification simplifies second-sourcing
Limitations to consider
- Strongly hygroscopic and cakes if packaging integrity is lost
- Racemic pantothenate delivers roughly half the activity per unit
- Degrades under acidic or alkaline conditions in wet applications
How to choose the right grade
- Confirm the D-isomer basis is written into the specification
- Plan sealed storage and prompt use after opening
- Match particle size to premix homogeneity
- Buyers searching for an alternative or second-source supplier should state the incumbent specification they are matching, because a like-for-like comparison depends on declared content, physical form and documentation rather than on the material name alone.
Typical grades
- Feed grade calcium D-pantothenate
- Free-flowing premix grade

Procurement coverage
How to specify, order and receive Calcium D-pantothenate (feed grade)
Written for procurement, quality and technical buyers in Canada and the United States. No numeric price, MOQ, stock or lead-time value is published — those are confirmed per shipment in the quotation and against the confirmed batch.
How buyers specify at RFQ
- Declared potency or assay and the analytical method behind it
- Product form — beadlet, spray-dried, crystalline or carrier dilution
- Stability data for the pelleting or extrusion conditions used
- Particle size, flow and carrier identity for premix homogeneity
- D-isomer basis stated explicitly
Packaging options (industry-standard)
- 25 kg bag or fibre drum — the usual micro-ingredient format
- Foil-lined or moisture-barrier packaging for hygroscopic and oxidation-sensitive actives
- Carton or pail for very low-inclusion actives handled by hand
- Packaging options and available pack sizes are confirmed with each quotation.
Storage & handling
- Store cool, dry and sealed; potency loss accelerates with heat and humidity
- Keep original moisture-barrier packaging closed until the blend is made
- Use first-in, first-out rotation and respect the declared retest or shelf-life date
- Protect from light and oxygen; keep moisture-barrier packaging intact until use
Documentation available
- Technical data sheet (TDS) stating the declared activity or potency and the assay method
- Safety data sheet (SDS) in the format required for Canadian import
- Certificate of analysis (COA) with the batch activity or potency result
- Stability and overage guidance for the intended pelleting or blending process
- Documentation is confirmed per batch at quotation; availability depends on the grade and supplier offered.

Technical & procurement detail
Functional role of calcium d-pantothenate in feed+
Pantothenic acid is the backbone of coenzyme A and therefore of fat, carbohydrate and protein metabolism. Only the D-isomer is biologically active, which is why the racemic and D-forms cannot be dosed at the same rate.
Specifying the grade+
Confirm whether the product is D-calcium pantothenate or the racemic DL form, because active content differs by roughly half. The material is hygroscopic, so packaging and storage conditions should be discussed with the supplier.
Documentation and specification+
Feed grade material is quoted against the specification your mill or premix formulation requires. Allzone confirms grade, declared content, physical form and any carrier or coating with the supplier before quoting, and shares the technical data sheet and safety data sheet for the exact material offered.
Frequently asked questions
Is the D or DL form supplied?+
Both exist in the market with different active content; the isomer basis is confirmed on the supplier technical data sheet.
Is this quoted as feed grade material?+
Yes. Feed grade is quoted as a separate specification from food or technical grade, with its own documentation for the exact material offered.
What packaging is available?+
Packaging is confirmed with the supplier at quotation for the grade and quantity discussed.
Can you deliver to feed mills across Canada?+
Yes. LTL and FTL freight is arranged across Ontario, Quebec and Western Canada, with container-direct supply for repeat volumes.
