PURE
Products that contain only carrageenan, without any additives for standardization.

KAPPA CARRAGEENAN has basically strong gelling properties exhibiting brittle gels and has a relatively high syneresis. KAPPA is intended for applications that require heating.

IOTA CARRAGEENAN Have basically soft gelling properties exhibiting elastic gels and have relatively low syneresis. Refined Iota Carrageenan is partially cold soluble. Most Iota grades are used for applications that require higher protein reactivity or low syneresis.

KAPPA/IOTA BLENDS are intended to simulate function of Kappa2 in dairy applications.

LAMBDA CARRAGEENAN are cold-soluble, highly viscous and strongly attractive to milk proteins.

BLENDS
Products that are based on Carrageenans but with added Hydrocolloids, sugar or salts for either dilution standardization or special functions. These are custom-made products or specific quality requirements.

MEAT APPLICATION
Products that are mainly Kappa-based Carrageeenans that have high brine gel strength and have fine particle size for injection purposes. Kappa Carrageenans react with meat proteins to bind excess brine in the system. Synergy with starch allows reduction in starch levels and reduces related flavor masking. Carrageenans for meat application are applied either through tumbling or injection.

DAIRY APPLICATION
Products can be either Kappa or Iota Carrageenan or Blends of Kappa / IotaKappa2.These products have high milk reactivity and react with milk proteins to stabilize the system. These are usually tested in Milk systems.

ICE CREAM APPLICATION
Products that are mainly Emulsifier/hydrocolloid blends. They contain very little Carrageenan for stability.

JELLY APPLICATION
Products are mainly blends containing R-Kappa and Galactomannans.

BEER FINING APPLICATION
Products are mainly SR-Kappa and are used at very low concentration (1-10ppm)and are intended to flocculate proteins in beer to improve filtration.

PETFOOD APPLICATION
Product sare mainly SR-Kappa and intended as gelling agent for canned pet food products. These products are of the lowest grade possible and no microbacteria specifications are required.

OTHER CULINARY APPLICATION i.e. gummy candy, melted cheese, fruit jam, cheese, etc.
