Compare Collagen Peptides and Type II Collagen
Bovine, fish and chicken collagen peptides differ in raw material and typical applications. Hydrolyzed and undenatured type II collagen are supplied to separate specifications. Each product page lists the grade details, and we also offer private-label packing and custom molecular weight.

HydroCollix™ Bovine
Hydrolyzed Bovine Collagen
Bovine-skin collagen peptide powder for food, beverage and nutrition manufacturers, supplied in 20 kg bags. Samples are available for qualification.

HydroCollix™ Fish
Hydrolyzed Fish Collagen
Fish collagen peptides from tilapia skin, with an average molecular weight of about 1,000 Da.

HydroCollix™ Chicken
Hydrolyzed Chicken Collagen
Chicken-derived collagen peptides for nutritional supplements, functional foods, beverages and wellness products.

HydroCollix™ Chicken Type II
Denatured Collagen Type II
Hydrolyzed type II collagen peptide for joint-support supplement formulations.

Native type II
Undenatured Collagen Type II
Type II collagen with its native structure preserved, for joint-support and healthy-aging supplements.

Hydrolyzed collagen vs collagen peptides: what is the difference?
Hydrolyzed collagen, collagen peptides and collagen hydrolysates are commonly used terms for collagen broken down into shorter peptides. Compare the source, molecular weight and specification when selecting a grade. Undenatured type II collagen retains its native structure and is supplied to a separate specification.

Production & quality
How We Produce and Release Collagen Peptides
Every shipment is released against a batch COA. Our team supports supplier questionnaires and audits.
Raw material selection
Bovine, fish and poultry raw materials are screened for purity and safety, so protein levels stay stable from batch to batch.
Enzymatic hydrolysis
Controlled enzymatic hydrolysis breaks collagen into low-molecular-weight peptides for solubility and processing performance.
Purification
Multi-stage filtration and refining remove impurities from the peptide solution before it is dried.
Spray drying & release
Peptides are spray-dried into a consistent fine powder, then tested and packed before release.

FAQ
Collagen Peptide Sourcing Questions
Are you a collagen peptide manufacturer or a trading company?
We are a manufacturer. HydroCollix™ collagen peptides are produced at Jiangxi Hanfei Biotechnology Co., Ltd., ZXCHEM's own factory in Jiangxi Province.
What is the difference between denatured and undenatured type II collagen?
Denatured (hydrolyzed) type II collagen is broken down into peptides, like our other HydroCollix™ grades. Undenatured type II collagen keeps its native triple-helix structure and is a different ingredient with its own specification. We supply both.
Can you customize molecular weight or supply private label?
Yes. Share your target molecular weight range, packing and application, and we will confirm feasibility, sampling and pricing.
Do you hold collagen peptide stock in the USA?
Yes. Selected grades are stocked in New Jersey, Chicago and California through ZXCHEM USA for dispatch without ocean freight lead time.
What are the MOQ, packing and lead time?
For the listed bovine and fish collagen grades, standard bulk supply starts at 500 kg in 20 kg bags. China orders are ready for dispatch in approximately 14 days. Confirm the selected grade, quantity, packing, trade terms and shipment schedule in the quotation; other collagen types and customised requirements are confirmed separately.
How do I get a quotation and a free sample?
Send your company, collagen source or grade, application, required quantity in kg or MT, and destination country or port. Request the matching TDS, SDS, sample COA or a bulk quotation. Samples of up to 500 g are available for evaluation; courier cost is paid by the buyer or through the buyer's courier account.
