Aloe Vera Gel
Aloe Vera Gel is a clear, jelly-like substance extracted from the inner leaf of the Aloe vera plant. It is widely used in skincare for its soothing, hydrating, and healing properties. Rich in vitamins (especially A, C, and E), enzymes, and amino acids, Aloe Vera Gel is commonly applied to treat sunburns, minor cuts, skin irritation, and dryness. It also has mild anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effects, making it a popular natural remedy in both cosmetic and medicinal products.
Aspartame
Aspartame is a low-calorie artificial sweetener approximately 200 times sweeter than sucrose (table sugar). It is a methyl ester of the dipeptide composed of aspartic acid and phenylalanine. Due to its intense sweetness and low-calorie nature, aspartame is widely used as a sugar substitute in various food and beverage products. It is popular among consumers seeking to reduce caloric intake, especially diabetics and those on weight management programs. Aspartame breaks down at high temperatures, limiting its use in certain cooking or baking applications. It is approved by numerous global food safety authorities, including the FDA and EFSA.
Calcium Saccharin
Calcium Saccharin is the calcium salt form of saccharin, a synthetic sweetener. It appears as a white to off-white crystalline powder with a sweet taste that is several hundred times sweeter than sucrose (table sugar). Calcium Saccharin is water-soluble and widely used as a non-nutritive sweetener in food and beverage products, pharmaceuticals, and oral care formulations. Due to its stability under heat and acidic conditions, it is ideal for baked goods and beverages. It serves as a sugar substitute for diabetic and calorie-restricted diets and is often used in combination with other sweeteners to improve taste profiles.
Glycerin
Glycerin, also known as glycerol, is a colorless, odorless, viscous liquid with a sweet taste and hygroscopic properties. It is a trihydroxy alcohol (triol) used extensively across food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and industrial applications. Food-grade glycerin is produced through hydrolysis, saponification, or transesterification of fats and oils, ensuring compliance with stringent purity standards. It is supplied in bulk (e.g., 250kg drums) for large-scale applications where non-toxic, biodegradable humectants or solvents are required. Glycerin is widely appreciated for its moisture-retaining ability, solubility, lubricity, and stabilizing properties.
MonoPropylene Glycol
MonoPropylene Glycol (MPG) is a clear, colorless, odorless, and slightly viscous liquid commonly used as a solvent, humectant, and antifreeze agent. It exhibits excellent moisture retention, low volatility, and high boiling point, making it suitable for a wide range of industrial, food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic applications. MPG is valued for its low toxicity and biodegradability.
Pineapple Enzyme Powder
Pineapple Enzyme Powder is a fine, light-colored powder derived from the fruit and stem of the pineapple (Ananas comosus), containing the proteolytic enzyme bromelain. It is produced via extraction and subsequent drying (usually spray or freeze-drying) to preserve enzymatic activity. Known for its protein-digesting, anti-inflammatory, and exfoliating properties, this enzyme is widely used across food, nutraceutical, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries.
Sodium Saccharin
Sodium Saccharin is a white crystalline powder or granule with the chemical formula C₇H₄NNaO₃S·2H₂O. It is the sodium salt of saccharin, an artificial sweetener approximately 300–500 times sweeter than sucrose. This non-nutritive, zero-calorie sweetener is widely used in food, beverage, pharmaceutical, and personal care industries. Packaged in 25kg containers, it is highly soluble in water, heat-stable, and has excellent shelf life, making it a cost-effective and versatile sweetening agent.
Sugar Slurry
Sugar Slurry is a concentrated aqueous solution of sucrose, prepared by dissolving refined sugar in water to create a viscous, pumpable syrup. It is used extensively in food, beverage, and industrial applications where liquid sweeteners are preferred over granulated sugar for ease of mixing, consistency, and handling. Sugar slurry ensures uniform sweetness and rapid dissolution in various processes and formulations.
