GENU is the trademark for pectins marketed by CP Kelco ApS, founded in 1934 and now a wholly owned subsidiary of CP Kelco ApS, Wilmington, Del., U.S.A. CP Kelco ApS is the largest, most modern and automated pectin manufacturing plant in the world today. GENU pectins are marketed in more than sixty countries.

GENU pectins have established their position as uniform gelling agents of high quality for jams, jellies and marmalades.
