Gelatin — An Essential Functional Ingredient for Food and Pharmaceutical Industries

Gelatin is a natural protein derived from animal collagen. With its notable gelling, adhesive, emulsifying, and film-forming properties, it is widely used in both food processing and pharmaceutical manufacturing. As industries continue to focus on natural and safe ingredients, gelatin is playing an increasingly important role in the market.

Application and Value of Food-Grade Gelatin
In the food industry, gelatin is commonly used in confectionery, jellies, dairy products, beverages, and meat products. It helps improve product structure, giving foods a smooth and elastic texture. At the same time, gelatin contributes to moisture retention, thickening, and clarification, enhancing both the appearance and mouthfeel of finished products.

Key Functions of Pharmaceutical Gelatin
In pharmaceuticals, gelatin serves as a crucial material for producing hard and soft capsules. Its plasticity and biocompatibility help encapsulate active ingredients and support proper dissolution and release. These properties make gelatin a reliable raw material for various capsule formulations.
