GELLANEERTM ELA: Cost-Efficient Gellan Gum

Gellan gum has benefits for food applications but can be difficult to work with due to solubility issues. GELLANEERTM ELA is a new high-performance gellan gum that addresses these challenges. It has enhanced solubility even in calcium solutions, requiring 20-25% less dosage than regular gellan gum to achieve the same gel strength. This improved solubility provides benefits like improved handling flexibility, energy savings, and enhanced cost efficiency for manufacturing gel-based foods. GELLANEERTM ELA can be used in applications like drinkable jellies, jelly beads, confectioneries, and more.

GELLANEER ELA TM

Maximizing manufacturing and cost efficiency in


gel-based applications
The challenge
Low acyl (LA) gellan gum has unique features in creating food and beverages with novel texture, crystal clear
transparency and excellent thermal stability. Gel-based food applications such as vegan gummy candies, drinkable
jellies, bubble tea pearls and energy gels are gaining popularity thanks to the unique textures and mouthfeels
imparted by gellan gum. But drawbacks such as poor solubility due to its calcium sensitivity and the requirement of
adding chelating agents make LA gellan gum a relatively difficult ingredient to work with.

Meet high-performance GELLANEERTM ELA


Designed to address the manufacturing challenges faced when using regular LA gellan gum, GELLANEERTM ELA is a
major technological upgrade in the category.
