Why Buy Onset Worldwide's Pumpkin Protein Powder?When it comes to choosing the right pumpkin protein powder, Onset Worldwide is your trusted source. We understand the importance of quality and purity and go the extra mile to ensure our products meet the highest standards. We start by sourcing the highest quality raw material to produce our pumpkin protein powder. Onset Worldwide is one of the few companies in the market that can source USA-manufactured pumpkin seed protein with no additives or chemical extraction. We then import the seed directly to our SQF-certified, allergen-free facility for processing. Our proprietary processing methods ensure that the result is always the highest quality pumpkin protein powder.
Our ProcessThe process of manufacturing our proteins starts with the quality of our kernels. We use 99.99% pure product that is cleaned in our state-of-the-art New Jersey SQF facility. Once the kernels pass our QA inspection and 3rd party lab testing, the kernels are moved over to our cold-pressing production line, where the oil is removed from the kernels. The remaining material, referred to as press cake, is rich in protein and other nutrients. That material is then milled into a fine powder. That powder is then packaged in custom bags and won't be released or shipped to customers globally until a complete COA (Certificate of Analysis) is completed by our 3rd party lab for the second or 3rd time in our supply chain. |

How Are Pumpkin Protein Powders Typically Made?
Pumpkin protein powder is created by initially harvesting and cleaning pumpkin seeds. After the seeds are collected, they undergo a roasting process to enhance flavor and facilitate the removal of outer hulls. Subsequently, the de-hulled seeds are ground into a fine powder, breaking them down into smaller particles for easier protein extraction.
Most companies then use water or another solvent to separate the protein from other seed components like fibers and fats. Onset Worldwide never uses solvents or additives in our pumpkin protein powder; instead, we rely on cold-pressing to remove the oil and mill what remains. Following extraction, the mixture undergoes filtration to eliminate impurities and concentrate the protein content. The filtered solution is then dried to remove excess moisture, employing methods such as spray drying or air drying based on the manufacturing process. Once dried, the protein concentrate undergoes a final grinding to achieve a smooth and consistent texture. The resulting pumpkin protein powder is then packaged for distribution and consumption. It's worth noting that manufacturing processes may vary among producers, and some may include additional steps for quality enhancement. Always refer to specific product packaging or manufacturer instructions for detailed information on the production process. |
