GENU® pectin products are a family of partially methyl esterified polysaccharides produced from citrus peel and
sugar beet pulp by extraction and controlled de-esterification. Pectin is well known as the gel-forming component
of fruits and as an ingredient of many food products. The inclusion of pectin on product labels is generally
regarded favorably by consumers.
In addition to forming solid gels, GENU pectin products can be employed to create structured liquids. They are
also used as water-binding and film-forming agents. By using different raw materials and manufacturing conditions,
CP Kelco is able to produce pectin products with a wide range of compositions and functional properties that meet
specific customer needs.
