1. Is Pectin E440 natural and safe?

Yes. Pectin is a natural hydrocolloid extracted from citrus peels or apple pomace. It is a safe, plant-based ingredient approved globally as food additive E440 and suitable for vegetarian and vegan formulations.

 

2. How does Pectin E440 work in beverages?

In beverages, pectin E440 acts as a stabilizer and suspending agent, preventing pulp and particles from settling. It also improves mouthfeel, smoothness, and product stability, especially in fruit juices and dairy drinks.

 

3. What is the difference between high methoxyl (HM) and low methoxyl (LM) pectin?

High Methoxyl Pectin (HM): Requires high sugar and low pH for gel formation, ideal for jams and jellies.

Low Methoxyl Pectin (LM): Gels with calcium ions, suitable for low-sugar or sugar-free products, dairy desserts, and functional beverages.

 

4. Can Pectin E440 replace gelatin in food applications?

Yes. Pectin is a plant-based alternative to gelatin, making it suitable for vegan gummies, confectionery, and dairy desserts. It provides gel strength, elasticity, and stability without using animal-derived ingredients.

 

5. Do you have the RSPO certificate?

Yes. We have RSPO, Kosher, Halal, ISO9001, and ISO22000 certificates.
