China Small Molecular Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein Powder for Hair Care Suppliers, Factory
Product Description
Product Description
Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein Powder is a small molecular protein peptide, making it easily absorbed. As a dual agent of protection and enrichment, it is widely added in hair care products such as shampoo, conditioner, and intensive treatments. It enhances hair fiber tensile strength and natural luster, inhibits brittleness and split ends, and is highly recommended for hair prone to dryness, frizz, or structural deterioration.
Product Introduction
Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein Powder is a specialized ingredient derived from natural wheat that has undergone a delicate hydrolysis process. This reaction breaks down larger protein molecules into bioavailable low-molecular peptides and essential amino acids via enzymatic or chemical processing.
The hydrolysis process significantly optimizes solubility, penetration, and bioavailability, making it an exceptional choice for cosmetics, premium skincare, and intensive hair care formulations. Due to its reduced molecular size, it permeates the cuticle and stratum corneum efficiently to provide deep structural hydration and lasting moisture retention.

Production Process Flow Chart
Applications in Hair Care Products
How Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein Transforms Hair Health:
- Moisturizing: Low-molecular peptides penetrate deep into the hair shaft, hydrating structural layers from within and mitigating dryness and breakage.
- Strengthening: Replenishes lost cystine and structural keratin, reinforcing fiber tensile strength and reducing vulnerability to mechanical and thermal stress.
- Volume Enhancement: Adsorbs onto hair strands to add fullness, natural body, and tactile thickness without weighing strands down.
- Deep Conditioning: Leaves the cuticle aligned and smooth, promoting tactile softness, high gloss, and improved combability.
Applications in Skin Care Products
Common Formulations Featuring Hydrolysed Wheat Protein:
- Moisturizers: Intensive hydration and lipid-barrier maintenance.
- Serums: Bioactive peptide delivery for anti-aging and firming support.
- Cleansers: Non-stripping surfactant support preserving delicate barrier lipids.
- Sheet Masks: Deep moisture infusion, softening, and revitalizing relief.
- Sunscreens: Photoprotective synergy and moisture retention under UV stress.
1. Moisture Retention
Acts as an effective humectant that captures and binds environmental water while forming a protective, non-occlusive film over the epidermal surface.
2. Skin Barrier Repair
Reinforces natural lipid matrices, shielding fragile skin from environmental aggressors, airborne irritants, and trans-epidermal moisture loss (TEWL).
3. Anti-Aging Benefits
Improves skin elasticity, diminishes fine lines, and supplies fundamental amino acid building blocks to support natural collagen synthesis.
4. Smoothing & Softening
Imparts a velvet, non-greasy after-feel by conditioning keratinocytes, refining skin roughness and uneven surface texture.
5. Soothing & Calming
Bioactive wheat peptides offer soothing properties that help calm irritated skin, making it well-suited for sensitive skin formulations.
6. Enhancing Formulations
Improves emulsion stability and tactile performance in creams and lotions, promoting uniform active distribution and rheological consistency.
Our Package
Packaging standard includes an inner food-grade polyethylene plastic bag with a heavy-duty multi-layer kraft paper bag exterior. Standard specifications are 15 kg/bag and 25 kg/bag, with custom volumetric packing available upon request.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What is Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein Powder and how is it produced?
It is a natural protein peptide derived from non-GMO wheat gluten. It undergoes specialized enzymolysis to break high-molecular proteins into bioavailable low-molecular peptides and amino acids with superior solubility and skin-hair penetration capabilities.
Q2: What primary benefits does Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein offer for hair care?
HWP penetrates the hair cortex to restore moisture from within, enhances hair shaft tensile strength, minimizes breakage and split ends, improves combability, and adds noticeable volume and shine.
Q3: How does it function in skincare formulations?
HWP acts as an effective humectant that forms a protective moisture-locking film on the stratum corneum. It supports barrier repair, improves skin elasticity, calms sensitive skin, and helps smooth fine lines.
Q4: Can the molecular weight and solution characteristics be customized?
Yes. Le-Nutra offers customizable average molecular weight distribution (including fractions <1000 Da over 85%) as well as tailored solution color and complete clarity without turbidity.
Q5: What are the packaging and order specifications?
Standard packing consists of inner food-grade plastic liners sealed inside kraft paper bags of 15 kg or 25 kg. Custom commercial package volumes are also available to meet client requirements.
