Carnauba Wax is obtained from the leaves of the Brazilian palm tree known as ‘Copernica Cerifera’, also referred to as the "Tree of Life". The Carnauba palm flourishes in northeastern regions within Brazil, and proliferates naturally along riverbanks, streams and damp low-lands.The tree exudes wax through the petioles of its fan-shaped leaves, which prevents dehydration in the equatorial climate. The palm leaves, harvested in the dry months occurring from August through December, are sun-dried and mechanically thrashed to separate the wax from the leaf. The color and quality of the wax are governed by the age of the leaves and care used in processing.

Lutkala is a thickener, which consists of 100% natural raw materials and its production is exceptional ecological. We have proof of this - Lutkala is processed to such a small extent that in its pure form it still has the taste and smell of apples. Lutkala thickens, stabilizes, provides the desired texture and structure, prevents syneresis, gels, increases the stability of freezing and thawing, and prevents the formation of ice crystals. Lutkala is a completely natural replacement for chemical or synthetic thickeners such as pectin, modified starch or xanthan gum. The use of Lutkala enables the elimination of undesirable "E" components from the label, in line with the clean label trend.

Tabulose SC® 611 has a viscosity in water at 2.6%: 85 – 200 cps. It is a product resulting from a co-processing of microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) and carboxymethylcellulose sodium (CMC). In this process, the CMC turns the MCC, which is insoluble, into an ingredient dispersible in water. When the finished co-processed product is subjected to suitable agitation, it forms an opaque white gel with thixotropic nature. Tabulose SC-611 has the ability to suspend particles through the formation of a three-dimensional network and not just by increasing the viscosity. It is also stable over a wide temperature range, and with a pH between 3.5 and 11.0.This food stabilizer is very heat resistant and makes for a good thickener in food applications such as ice cream, marshmallows, mayonnaise, salad dressings and powder shakes.

Modified Corn Starches is used in Cooking, Instant Pregelatinized, Granular and Clean Label (Non GMO); with excellent water retention capacity, stability to high temperature processes and shear stresses, stability to freeze / thaw cycles, ability to emulsify and encapsulate flavors and aromas.

Gumix Xanthan Gum is a high-molecular weight carbohydrate. It is a polysaccharide industrially produced in a pure culture fermentation by the microorganism Xanthomonas campestris. The microorganism is cultured in a well-aerated medium containing carbohydrates, a source of nitrogen, and appropriate essential trace elements. The Xanthomonas campestris culture is grown in several carefully-controlled successive stages prior to introduction into the final fermentation medium. Following fermentation, the broth is sterilized to prevent bacterial contamination, and xanthan gum is recovered by precipitation with alcohol, drying, and milling.
