Products

Nalgin ULV is a very low viscosity product. Alginates are extracts derived from certain Brown Seaweeds (Kelp or Macrocystis).

Tara gum is a seed gum similar to guar and locust bean gums. It is obtained from the ground endosperm of seeds from the Caesalpina spinosa plant, typically found in the mountains of Peru. Like guar and locust bean gums, tara gum is classified as a galactomannon and is composed of mannose and galactose sugars. The ratio of mannose to galactose is 3:1, where guar and locust bean gums are 2:1 and 4:1 respectively.

Provides high viscosity and improved shear stability. Designed for UHT and retorted dairy applications such as canned nutritional drinks (e.g. diet and nutritional supplements). Similar to CM-61BF.

An economical lambda-like carrageenan for cold milk and water reconstituted beverage mixes. Provides suspension and body.

Nalgin 1000 is a very high viscosity product. Alginates are extracts derived from certain Brown Seaweeds (Kelp or Macrocystis). Kelp is commonly found in the northern Atlantic and Pacific Oceans and off the coast of California down through Chile. Alginic Acid exists naturally in the seaweed. Through the extraction and refining process alginic acid is converted to commercially functional Sodium Alginates. Sodium Alginates are used to produce heat-stable gels and to generate viscosity in a variety of fabricated foods, heat-stable fruit fillings, and cheese sauces.

Locust Bean Gum (LBG) is a Natural food additive derived from the carob tree (Ceratonia siliqua), prevalent in the Mediterranean region. The elongated pods of carob tree are coarsely ground, then separated as two fractions, pulp and seed. Locust bean gum, or LBG, is derived from the endosperm of the seed fraction. Product grades are determned by water viscosity, powder color/purity and particle size.

Gellan gum is a polymer produced by fermentation of a medium by the microorganism Sphingomonas elodea. The extracellular polysaccharide is recovered after the fermentation process to produce either high acyl or low acyl gellan gum. High acyl gellan is directly recovered after fermentation via alcohol precipitation.

Nalgin HG is a high gel / medium viscosity product. Alginates are extracts derived from certain Brown Seaweeds (Kelp or Macrocystis). Kelp is commonly found in the northern Atlantic and Pacific Oceans and off the coast of California down through Chile. Alginic Acid exists naturally in the seaweed. Through the extraction and refining process alginic acid is converted to commercially functional Sodium Alginates. Sodium Alginates are used to produce heat-stable gels and to generate viscosity in a variety of fabricated foods, heat-stable fruit fillings, and cheese sauces.

Economical carrageenan blend designed for fluid dairy and HTST chocolate milk products. Most suitable in applications where the use level can be closely matched to dairy plant conditions and those conditions are expected to remain consistent.

CS-9314 is a cold-swelling lambda carrageenan designed for rapid thickening in powder mixes for cold milk or water reconstitution. It provides viscosity, mouth feel and suspension of solids in the reconstituted drinks. This products typical use level is ~0.1-0.15% of the reconstituted drink weight.

Iota carrageenan typically used in imitation chocolate milk (whey/vegetable oil-based) with akappa carrageenan such as CM-9401. Also used in certain retorted nutritional beverages such as soy-based infant formulas. Cold swelling but low or non-gelling in water. (See Further Processed Meat & Poultry Section).

Xanthan CG cosmetic grade xanthan that meets the specifications set forth in NF/USP. Suitable for cosmetic and personal care applications

Gellan gum is a polymer produced by fermentation of a medium by the microorganism Sphingomonas elodea. The extracellular polysaccharide is recovered after the fermentation process to produce either high acyl or low acyl gellan gum. Low acyl (LA Gellan) gellan gum is instead treated with an alkali solution before the alcohol precipitation, consequently resulting in deacylation of the gellan gum.

Cost-effective, concentrated kappa/lambda type carrageenan designed primarily for use in soft serve and low-fat dairy applications.

An economical blend of carrageenan types (predominately kappa) which combines maximum performance and economy for a variety of stabilizer applications such as HTST chocolate milk, frozen desserts and culture products (cottage cheese dressing and sour cream). Provides suspension, viscosity and emulsion stability with good resistance to shear. A fine-mesh product designed for processes where nested filter screens are used in the filling operation. Typical use level is ~0.03 in chocolate milk and ~0.02 in hard pack (>10% butter fat) ice cream.

A high viscosity water thickening carrageenan providing excellent body at low temperatures. Also suitable for cold milk systems.
