Pork gelatin, derived from porcine sources, is a collagen-based protein celebrated for its outstanding gelling, thickening, and emulsifying capabilities. Our pork gelatin is manufactured using top-notch pork raw materials, guaranteeing purity and uniformity. It is a flexible ingredient that finds use in food, pharmaceutical, and technical sectors, providing a cost-effective way to achieve the desired texture and stability in various products.
Exceptional Gelling Strength: It can form firm gels (with a bloom range of 150–250), which is perfect for making confectionery items like gummy candies and marshmallows, as well as for use in meat processing as a binder.
High Purity and Safety: Our pork gelatin is produced in facilities that meet strict food-grade standards. It undergoes thorough purification to reduce microbial contamination and ensure it is free from impurities, making it safe for consumption.
Versatile Applications:
Food Industry: It is used in dairy products (such as yogurt and puddings) for stabilization, in bakery fillings, and in the production of gelatin-based desserts.
Pharmaceuticals: Pork gelatin is a common choice for making soft-gel capsules for drugs and dietary supplements because of its biocompatibility.
Technical Uses: It can be used in industrial adhesives, photographic emulsions, and as a component in biodegradable packaging.
5Cost-Efficiency: When compared to some premium gelatin variants, pork gelatin offers a more budget-friendly option for large-scale production without sacrificing quality.
Food & Beverage:
Confectionery: Ideal for creating chewy textures in gummy bears, jelly beans, and licorice.
Meat Products: Acts as a binder in processed meats (like sausages and deli meats) to improve texture and reduce cooking losses.
Dairy & Desserts: Helps stabilize yogurt, puddings, and mousses, enhancing their mouthfeel.
Pharmaceuticals:
Capsule Manufacturing: Used to make soft-gel capsules that can effectively deliver oils, vitamins, and medications.
Technical & Industrial:
Adhesives & Coatings: It is used in the formulation of water-based adhesives and coatings due to its film-forming properties.
Stringent Quality Control: Our pork gelatin is ISO 9001 certified. Each batch goes through strict testing for viscosity, bloom strength, and microbial safety, ensuring consistent performance.
Ethical Sourcing: We source our pork from reliable suppliers who follow humane farming practices, ensuring the traceability and sustainability of the raw materials.
Custom Formulations: We offer pork gelatin in different particle sizes and grades (such as Type A, acid-processed) to meet the specific needs of different industries, whether it's for clear or opaque formulations.
Global Supply: We can provide bulk packaging (25kg bags, 1000kg totes) to meet the demands of industrial manufacturers, with a reliable supply chain.
No, as it is derived from porcine sources. For plant-based alternatives, you can explore agar, carrageenan, or pectin.
Pork gelatin usually has a slightly different amino acid profile and may offer better solubility in certain applications. It is also a preferred choice in regions where pork consumption is more common.
No, due to religious restrictions on pork. For halal/kosher-compliant options, please refer to our Halal Bovine Gelatin or Kosher Gelatin products.
