Sodium Gluconate Food grade

Sodium gluconate is a sodium salt of gluconic acid, commonly used in the food industry for its excellent chelating properties and high solubility. It appears as a white crystalline powder, is highly stable in a wide range of pH conditions, and is non-toxic and biodegradable.

In food applications, sodium gluconate acts as a stabilizer, sequestrant, and acidity regulator. It is widely used in processed foods, beverages, and dairy products to improve quality and extend shelf life. Its ability to chelate metal ions, such as calcium, makes it effective in preventing discoloration and improving texture in food products.

Compliant with food safety standards like FCC, USP, and other regulatory norms, sodium gluconate is a versatile ingredient valued for its functionality and safety in food-grade applications.

1. Dairy Products: Prevents the precipitation of calcium and magnesium ions, improving texture and stability in milk and cheese products.
2. Acts as an acidity regulator in food formulations, helping maintain desired pH levels for optimal flavor and preservation.
3. Prevents oxidation and discoloration by binding metal ions, extending the shelf life of canned foods, sauces, and dressings.
4. Processed Foods: Enhances the texture and stability of foods like sauces, condiments, and dressings by preventing coagulation and separation.
5. Chelates bitter ions, improving the overall taste profile of processed and packaged foods.
6. Used in baked goods to improve dough elasticity and maintain softness, ensuring better product quality.

Sodium Gluconate is available in 25kg fiber drums, Poly lined with pallets.
