Pectin with high functionality

Pectin is a natural dietary fiber, which is found in apples and citrus fruits such as oranges, lemons and limes. It is used in the production of food, beverages, medical products and cosmetics, and it offers natural gelling, thickening and stabilizing properties. Being highly functional and very versatile pectin is the perfect ingredient to produce consumer-friendly and natural products.
