Konjac Glucomannan Powder

Konjac Powder is a natural, plant-based ingredient derived from the root of the Amorphophallus konjac.
It is widely used in the food, beverage, and nutraceutical industries because of its exceptional water solubility, thickening ability, gelling properties, and stabilizing performance.

As a clean-label, gluten-free, and non-GMO ingredient, konjac powder is ideal for brands developing low-calorie, low-carb, and high-fiber products.

Key Characteristics

1. Excellent Water Solubility
   Easily dissolves in cold or warm water and forms a stable, uniform system.
2. Powerful Thickener
   Provides strong thickening effects even at low usage levels, making it suitable for beverages, sauces, and dairy alternatives.
3. High-Performance Stabilizer
   Improves texture, consistency, and shelf-life stability across various formulations.
4. Natural Gelling Agent
   Forms strong, elastic gels—ideal for jelly, pudding, gummy candies, and plant-based meat.
5. Film-Forming Ability
   Creates smooth, flexible films, useful for coatings, capsules, and food protection layers.
