Pectin is a kind of hydrophilic vegetable gum. It is a component of cell wall and widely exists in the fruit, root, stem and leaf of plants. The main raw materials are citrus peel, lemon peel and apple peel, which are all by-products of fruit juice processing and have stable and rich source. Pectin is usually white to yellow in powder, with slight acidity, soluble in water. We mainly produce apple pectin, lemon pection, citrus pectin and other fruit pectin.

Most of pectin is used in food industry and a lesser amount of pectin is used in medicine and cosmetics. In food industry, pectin is commonly used as gelling agent and is also used as thickening agent and stabilizing agent in fruit juice and dairy products. As a gelling agent, the gel formed by pectin has better structure, appearance, color, smell, taste and other sensory effects than the gel formed by other food gum. At low PH, most food gum has poor gelling property, but pectin is of high stability.
