Pectin is a natural polysaccharide derived from galacturonic acid and found in plant cell walls. It is supplied as a light‑to‑white, odorless powder with gelling properties and, depending on its degree of methoxylation, appears as
Pectin is a natural polysaccharide extracted primarily from citrus peels and apple pomace. It is widely used in the food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries as a gelling, thickening, and stabilizing agent. All Chem provides premium-grade pectin in both High Methoxyl and Low Methoxyl forms, ensuring consistent texture, stability, and quality.
