PRODUCTS CENTER


Bosnia and Herzegovina, located on the Balkan Peninsula in Southeastern Europe, has rich agricultural resources, particularly in fruits, grains, dairy products, and vegetables. With the increasing consumer demand for natural and plant-based foods and cosmetics, hydrocolloids like pectin, citrus fiber, carrageenan, and konjac gum have gained widespread usage in the food, beverage, snacks, sauces, bakery, and personal care sectors in Bosnia and Herzegovina, driving innovation and development across these industries. In the dairy and beverage sector, pectin and citrus fiber are commonly used in yogurt, probiotic drinks, fruit juices, and functional beverages. Pectin provides smooth texture to beverages, extends shelf life, and improves stability. Citrus fiber is often used in low-sugar and high-fiber drinks, enhancing their nutritional value and improving mouthfeel, which meets modern consumers' demand for healthy beverages. Carrageenan plays a significant role in dairy products and desserts, forming stable gel structures in milk puddings, jellies, and custards, enhancing texture. Konjac gum, with its transparent and flexible gel properties, is widely used in low-sugar desserts, jellies, and plant-based beverages, providing healthier alternatives that cater to consumers' desire for low-calorie and plant-based diets. In snacks and bakery, citrus fiber is commonly used to improve dough hydration and extensibility, keeping cakes, biscuits, and traditional pastries soft and moist. It can also partially replace fats, helping to reduce the caloric content of baked goods. Pectin plays an essential role in stabilizing jams, fillings, and confections, preventing water separation, and maintaining gloss and texture. Carrageenan and konjac gum are widely applied in gummy candies, puddings, and mousses, enhancing gel strength and texture layers, offering a richer mouthfeel and flavor profile. In sauces and condiments, pectin and citrus fiber help improve stability, prevent separation, and enhance flavor integration. Carrageenan enhances sliceability and elasticity in meat products, while konjac gum improves texture and mouthfeel in low-sugar, low-fat, and plant-based sauces. In personal care and cosmetics, konjac gum and citrus fiber are used as natural skincare ingredients in lotions, face masks, and shampoos. Konjac gum provides moisturizing effects and skin protection, while citrus fiber has natural exfoliating properties, helping to cleanse the skin and remove dead skin cells for smoother and healthier skin. With the growing emphasis on natural and healthy products in Bosnia and Herzegovina, pectin, citrus fiber, carrageenan, and konjac gum are driving innovation in the food, beverage, snack, bakery, sauce, and personal care industries.
