Supplier-specific concentration
Current commercial programs include concentrates around 40–42°, 51–53° and 60 ±1° Brix, with other grades available. Specify the required Brix rather than assuming one standard concentration.
Bulk Orange Carrot Juice Concentrate is produced from orange carrots (Daucus carota) and provides concentrated vegetable solids, mild natural sweetness, characteristic carrot flavor and bright orange color. It is used in juice blends, functional beverages, wellness shots, plant-based drinks, natural color systems, soups, sauces and prepared foods.
Orange carrot is the cultivated root of Daucus carota, a member of the Apiaceae family. Commercial processing varieties are selected for uniform color, sweetness, juice yield and characteristic carrot flavor.
The intense orange appearance is associated primarily with carotenoid pigments, especially beta-carotene and alpha-carotene. Cultivar, growing conditions, maturity and processing all influence final color intensity, soluble solids and sensory character.
For concentrate production, carrots are washed, trimmed, crushed or milled, pressed or extracted, screened and then concentrated under reduced pressure. Products may be supplied cloudy with more suspended carrot material or further clarified where lower turbidity is required.
Orange carrot concentrate is supplied at different concentration levels rather than one universal Brix. Buyers should qualify soluble solids together with pH, acidity, color, suspended solids and processing style for the intended application.
Current commercial programs include concentrates around 40–42°, 51–53° and 60 ±1° Brix, with other grades available. Specify the required Brix rather than assuming one standard concentration.
Documented supplier programs commonly fall within this range. Titratable acidity varies with concentration and may be reported as citric acid, so compare products on the same analytical basis.
Color is a key commercial parameter and may be controlled visually or instrumentally. Carotenoid oxidation can reduce brightness during excessive heat, oxygen exposure or prolonged storage.
Cloudy concentrate retains more suspended vegetable material and body, while clarified grades provide lower turbidity. Define sediment, pulp or clarity requirements where they affect processing.
Approved concentrate should have characteristic carrot aroma and flavor without fermented or excessive cooked notes. Higher-solids products may require conditioning or agitation before pumping.
Commercial specifications normally establish limits for total count, yeast, mold and relevant pathogens together with contaminant, residue and certification requirements where applicable.
Orange carrot concentrate is used where manufacturers need recognizable vegetable character, concentrated solids and orange coloration in a pumpable liquid ingredient.
Used in vegetable beverages, breakfast drinks and functional formulations, often blended with apple, orange, mango, ginger, beet or other fruit and vegetable ingredients.
Suitable for small-format vegetable and fruit shots where carrot provides sweetness, body and orange color alongside ginger, turmeric, citrus or other concentrated ingredients.
Can contribute vegetable solids, mild sweetness and color to smoothies, plant-based beverage systems and blended fruit-and-vegetable drinks.
Used in formulated foods and beverages where carrot-derived orange color and mild vegetable flavor are useful, subject to the labeling and regulatory requirements of the target market.
Suitable for soups, sauces, vegetable bases, dressings and ready meals where concentrated carrot flavor, sweetness and color support the finished formulation.
Frequently combined with apple, citrus, tomato, beet and other ingredients to balance sweetness, acidity, vegetable character and visual appearance.
Choose the orange carrot format according to required texture, concentration, storage method and finished-product application.
Select package size according to concentration, annual volume, storage requirements, production batch size, pumping needs and unloading equipment.
Often used for trials and smaller manufacturing runs; exact net weight varies with concentrate density and Brix.
Frozen or aseptic bag-in-drum formats are common for concentrated vegetable juices; current carrot programs also use approximately 260 kg drums.
Useful for higher-throughput programs where concentrate stability and supplier filling capability support tote or IBC handling.
Available for selected high-volume programs where product stability, sanitary transport and unloading systems permit.
Include the application, target °Brix, pH or acidity requirements, cloudy or clarified style, color target, certification, quantity, packaging, delivery location and timing.
