Vitamin B9 (Folic Acid) Price Trend Q3 2025

In Q3 2025, the global Vitamin B9 (Folic Acid) Food Grade (>96%) market reflected a largely stable sentiment, characterized by balanced supply conditions and only mild downward pressure on prices. Vitamin B9 (Folic Acid) Food Grade (>96%) pricing was influenced by consistent production rates in China, adequate inventories, and subdued purchasing from pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and food-fortification sectors, keeping overall price fluctuations within a very narrow 0-2% range during the quarter.

Stable raw material costs and predictable manufacturing output supported market steadiness, while restrained procurement and moderate export activity limited any potential upward movement. Although downstream demand remained soft, baseline consumption in essential health and nutrition applications provided some support to market stability. Looking ahead, shifts in regional restocking patterns, export competitiveness, and production discipline among major Chinese producers are expected to shape Vitamin B9 (Folic Acid) pricing dynamics into the next quarter.
