Thickeners

In the food industry the use of thickeners is a common practice.

For the thickening of foods increasingly products like Xanthum Gum, CMC, Pectin and tailor-made products are being used.
Reason is that the use of these products brings a lot of advantages: ease-of-use, easier manufacturing, better pH stability, lower dose rates, less impact on mouthfeel and a longer stability.

Chemelco carries a wide range of these products, also as part of our Sumo® product line. Some examples of the single products are:

• Sumo® Xanthan 200 - Xanthan Gum, 200 mesh
• Sumo® Xanthan 80 - Xanthan Gum 80 mesh
• Sumo® Pectin APA170 - HM viscosity pectin E440
