Anhydrous vs monohydrate citric acid — picking the right one

Citric acid anhydrous contains no water of crystallisation and is typically chosen for dry mixes, effervescent tablets and dry beverage blends where moisture must be controlled. Monohydrate (with one water molecule per acid molecule) is more cost-effective for wet processes such as liquid beverages, soft drinks, jams and detergents where the water content is irrelevant. Both ship from the same Richmond Hill warehouse.

Food-grade certification chain we provide

Every lot of citric acid we sell carries a full COA from the producing mill (China, Europe or Brazil depending on availability), a USP / FCC compliance letter, kosher (OU or Star-K) certificate, halal certificate, non-GMO declaration and allergen-free statement. This is the documentation package required by CFIA-registered food facilities in Ontario.

Logistics — beverage bottlers in the GTA

Beverage bottlers in Toronto, Mississauga, Concord and Brampton typically order on a recurring weekly schedule. We hold dedicated safety stock in Richmond Hill so a 24-hour callout for one 1,000 kg FIBC can always be served. Larger formulators take a full 20-ton FCL direct from container.

Frequently asked questions

Which is cheaper — anhydrous or monohydrate citric acid?+

On a per-kilogram basis the prices are similar, but monohydrate effectively gives you ~91% acid content (the rest being water of crystallisation). Choose anhydrous if you need to maximise acid per kg shipped.

Is your citric acid GMO-free and kosher-certified?+

Yes — every lot ships with non-GMO declaration and kosher certification (OU or Star-K depending on origin mill).

What is the shelf life of citric acid?+

Stored in a dry, sealed package below 30 °C, citric acid is stable for at least 3 years. The monohydrate form will slowly lose water at high temperatures.

Can you supply citric acid by the container load?+

Yes — we ship 20-ton FCL container loads of either anhydrous or monohydrate directly to your facility anywhere in Canada.
