Konjac Gum

Konjac Gum is a high-molecular-weight polysaccharide composed of glucose and mannose units, with a unique β-1,4-glycosidic bond structure. It has strong water absorption capacity (can absorb 50-100 times its own weight of water) and can form a viscous colloidal solution when dissolved in water, which can further form a stable gel when compounded with other hydrocolloids (such as carrageenan, xanthan gum).

Unlike synthetic thickeners, Konjac Gum is a natural water-soluble dietary fiber, which not only improves the texture and stability of products, but also adds nutritional value to products, meeting the global demand for healthy, clean label food ingredients. It also has excellent heat stability and freeze-thaw resistance, suitable for various food processing processes.

• Ultra-high viscosity at low dosage (0.1%-0.5%), reduce production cost
• 100% vegan & plant-based, ideal for clean label and plant-based products
• Excellent water-holding capacity, prevent product dehydration and deformation
• Good compatibility, can be compounded with various hydrocolloids to adjust gel texture
• Heat and freeze-thaw stable, suitable for high-temperature sterilization and frozen food processing
• Rich in dietary fiber, add nutritional value to food and health products

Full Manufacturing Steps

1. Raw material selection: Select high-quality Amorphophallus konjac corms with high glucomannan content
2. Cleaning & crushing: Remove impurities and crush the konjac corms into fine particles
3. Extraction: Use water extraction method to extract glucomannan from konjac powder
4. Purification: Remove protein, starch, ash and other impurities through filtration and centrifugation
5. De-colorization & refining: Improve product whiteness and purity through activated carbon de-colorization
6. Drying & grinding: Low-temperature spray drying or vacuum drying, then grind into uniform fine powder
7. Screening & packaging: Classify by particle size, conduct quality testing, and seal in moisture-proof packaging

GMP closed production workshop, strict raw material control and impurity removal process, ensuring high glucomannan content, stable viscosity, low microbial counts, meeting food and pharma-grade raw material requirements and global regulatory standards.
