A thickening agent or thickener is a substance which can increase the viscosity of a liquid without substantially changing its other properties. Edible thickeners are commonly used to thicken sauces, soups, and puddings without altering their taste; thickeners are also used in paints, inks, explosives, and cosmetics.

Thickeners do fairly much what the name indicates – they add width to items, bulking them up and helping the structure and look of merchandise.

We provides below range of thickner standards:

A humectant is a hygroscopic substance used to keep things moist. They are used in many products, including food, cosmetics, medicines and pesticides. When used as a food additive, a humectant has the effect of keeping moisture in the food.^[1] Humectants are sometimes used as a component of antistatic coatings for plastics.

We provides a below range of standards Humectant:

Acid thickener thickens and increases the viscosity of a range of acid systems including phosphoric, sulfuric, hydrofluoric, citric, oxalic etc. It is a multifunctional material featuring effective thickening, wetting, corrosion inhibition and perfume solubilization.

An emulsifier is an additive which helps two liquids mix. For example, water and oil separate in a glass, but adding an emulsifier will help the liquids mix together.

We provides below range of emulsifier standards:

Flavour enhancers are compounds that are added to a food in order to supplement or enhance its own natural flavour. The concept of flavour enhancement originated in Asia, where cooks added seaweed to soup stocks in order to provide a richer flavour to certain foods.

We provides a below range of standards Flavour Enhancer:

E200 to E299 fall into the preservative category. We offer a complete range of preservatives looking at what they do and the actual additive each E number represents.

We provides a below range of standards preservatives:

Antioxidants are used in foods in a similar way to preservatives, as they play a key role in extending the shelf life of products and helping improve taste and the look of food. They also help reduce a process known as enzyme browning, which is when fruits and vegetables become discoloured after a while.

Antioxidants are also frequently added to industrial products. A common use is as stabilizers in fuels and lubricants to prevent oxidation, and in gasolines to prevent the polymerization that leads to the formation of engine-fouling residues.

Antioxidant polymer stabilizers are widely used to prevent the degradation of polymers such as rubbers, plastics and adhesives that causes a loss of strength and flexibility in these materials.^[146] Polymers containing double bonds in their main chains, such as natural rubber and polybutadiene, are especially susceptible to oxidation and ozonolysis. They can be protected by antiozonants.

We provides a below range of antioxidant standards:

Additives called acidity regulators are used to help control or change the alkaline or acid levels in foods. It helps products become more palatable to eat and ensures foods stay like that as they are being made.

We provides a below range of Acidity Regulator standards:

An anticaking agent is an additive placed in powdered or granulated materials, such as table salt or confectioneries, to prevent the formation of lumps (caking) and for easing packaging, transport, flowability, and consumption.

We provides a below range of standards Anti Caking Agents:

Firming agents are food additives added in order to precipitate residual pectin, thus strengthening the structure of the food and preventing its collapse during processing.

We provides a below range of standards Firming Agents:

A sequestrant is a food additive which improves the quality and stability of foods. A sequestrant forms chelate complexes with polyvalent metal ions, especially copper, iron and nickel, which can prevent the oxidation of the fats in the food. Sequestrants are a type of preservative.
