PRODUCTS CENTER


Peru, a country rich in natural resources and cultural heritage in South America, is particularly known for its diverse agricultural products. With the increasing consumer demand for natural, healthy, and functional foods, pectin, citrus fiber, carrageenan, and konjac gum are increasingly applied in Peru’s food, beverage, snacks, bakery, sauces, and personal care products. These natural hydrocolloids not only enhance product quality and functionality but also meet the growing health demands of consumers. In the dairy and beverage industry, pectin, as a natural thickening and gelling agent, is widely used in yogurt, probiotic drinks, fruit juices, and functional beverages. High-ester pectin excels in acidic systems, providing smooth textures in fruit drinks, extending shelf life, and improving product stability. Citrus fiber performs exceptionally well in low-sugar and high-fiber drinks, enhancing mouthfeel and providing dietary fiber to meet modern consumers' health needs. Carrageenan, a potent gelling agent, is commonly used in dairy products, puddings, jellies, and ice creams, forming stable gels that enhance texture and mouthfeel. Konjac gum, with its transparent and elastic gel properties, is widely applied in low-sugar desserts, jellies, and plant-based drinks, fulfilling the demand for low-sugar, low-calorie products. In snacks and bakery, citrus fiber improves dough hydration and extensibility, ensuring bread, biscuits, and other baked goods remain moist and soft. It can also partially replace fats to help reduce calories. Pectin is widely used in jams, fillings, and confectionery to stabilize texture, prevent water separation, and maintain gloss. Carrageenan and konjac gum are often used in puddings, mousses, and gummy snacks, enhancing gel strength and enriching the product's texture layers. In sauces and condiments, pectin and citrus fiber help improve system stability, prevent separation, and enhance flavor integration. Carrageenan is commonly used in meat processing to improve sliceability and water retention, while konjac gum is used to optimize texture and mouthfeel in low-sugar, low-fat, and plant-based sauces. In personal care and cosmetics, konjac gum and citrus fiber, due to their natural and mild characteristics, are widely used in lotions, face masks, shampoos, and body washes. Konjac gum provides excellent moisturizing effects and smooth texture, making it an ideal skincare ingredient, while citrus fiber serves as a natural exfoliant to help remove dead skin cells and keep skin smooth and delicate. With the increasing demand for natural, healthy, and plant-based ingredients in the Peruvian market, the application of pectin, citrus fiber, carrageenan, and konjac gum is driving innovation in the food, beverage, snack, bakery, sauce, and personal care industries. Lemon Biotech, as a leading provider of natural hydrocolloid solutions, is committed to providing comprehensive technical support to help local businesses achieve product innovation and differentiation.
