SOLICITUD

Glucomannan (KGM) has many characteristics such as hydrophilicity, thickening, stability, emulsifying, suspending, gelling and film-forming properties, so it is widely used in the food industry and made into various food additives.

For example, it is used in meat products, dairy products, candy, jelly, etc., to improve the texture and structure of the product, improve the taste, and improve the gel aggregation effect.

Konjac gum is also widely used in medicine, health care, bioengineering, petroleum industry, textile industry, tobacco processing and cosmetics industry.
