Product Introduction

Product Description

Polyglycerol Esters of Fatty Acids (PGE, E475, CAS 67784-82-1) are derived from glycerol and fatty acids through esterification. In beverages, they act as emulsifying agents that stabilize oil-in-water systems, prevent phase separation, and maintain uniform distribution of flavors, colors, and nutrients. PGE is heat-stable, safe for food applications, and compliant with international food regulations. Its functional properties make it ideal for both carbonated and non-carbonated beverages, smoothies, flavored milk, and protein-fortified drinks.

Applications in beverages

Polyglycerol Esters (PGE, E475) are widely used as a food-grade emulsifier for beverages, providing excellent stability and uniformity in various liquid products.

In dairy beverages, PGE maintains fat distribution, enhances creaminess, and improves mouthfeel, ensuring consistent quality.

For fruit juices and flavored drinks, it prevents oil-water separation, preserves natural color, and stabilizes flavors for a premium sensory experience.

Plant-based-beverage Fruit beverage flavored-drinks

Plant-based beverages, such as soy, almond, and oat drinks, benefit from PGE's ability to stabilize emulsions and improve texture without affecting taste.

In functional and fortified drinks, PGE ensures even dispersion of vitamins, proteins, and oils, enhancing nutritional consistency.

It is also suitable for carbonated and protein-enriched beverages, maintaining stable emulsions under various processing and storage conditions.
