This week we have been busy playing with a new gum and making samples and measuring the viscosity.
Meet Solagum™ GM
This is the newest gum from Seppic portfolio and is very similar to the konjac with the advantage that:
1- It is hydrated cold and immediately (in contrast to the konjac)
2- It has a nicer skin feel
3- It is accepted in China whereas there are some limitations for konjac in China
Solagum™ GM, INCI: Glucomannan is cosmos approved, and Halal certified and is in the process of being NaTrue certified. It is derived from the tubers of
Amorphophallus muelleri.
It creates a much higher viscosity compared to Solagum™ AX, xanthan gum or sclerotium
and it works really beautifully in combination with Solagum™ AX.
We will soon add this amazing gum to our portfolio. For those of you who have been asking for konjac, this will be an awesome replacement.
