Micellar Casein 85
Slow-Digesting. Sustained Release. High Purity.
A native, highly pure milk protein isolate that maintains its natural micellar structure. Formulated to provide long-lasting nutrition and superior functional performance in sports supplements, beverages, and health foods.
Product Overview
Micellar Casein 85 is gently processed using advanced microfiltration to separate the casein from whey, lactose, and fat without denaturing the protein structure. This ensures maximum bio-availability and a highly functional ingredient profile.
Renowned for its unique anti-catabolic properties, this ingredient is a staple in the formulation of premium night-time recovery blends, offering a creamy texture and excellent nutritional benefits.

Frequently Asked Questions
Micellar Casein 85 is a premium dairy protein extracted directly from milk without the use of heat or acids, keeping its native micellar structure intact. It contains approximately 85% protein and provides a slow, sustained release of amino acids.
It is highly sought after in the sports nutrition industry for overnight recovery shakes, meal replacement powders, protein bars, ready-to-drink (RTD) beverages, and functional dairy products.
While whey protein is fast-digesting and ideal for post-workout recovery, Micellar Casein is slow-digesting. It forms a gel in the stomach, releasing amino acids slowly over several hours, making it perfect for sustained muscle repair.
Yes, Micellar Casein 85 has a very clean, neutral dairy flavor, making it easy to formulate with and preventing off-notes in the final product.
We typically supply Micellar Casein 85 in standard 20 Kg or 25 Kg multi-wall paper bags with protective inner liners to maintain freshness and prevent moisture absorption.
