Acacia gum seems to have it all – manufacturers say it’s clean-label, organic, sustainably sourced and provides income in developing countries. So why is industry not doing more to promote this?
Chemical company FMC Corporation will acquire the hydrocolloids
ingredients business of International Specialty Products (ISP) to
expand its alginate profile and strengthen cost competitiveness.
Hydrocolloid supplier TIC Gums has launched an emulsifier that
offers a cost-effective alternative to the more expensive propylene
glycol alginate (PGA).
Alginate specialist International Specialty Products (ISP) expands
and consolidates its food stabiliser portfolio, acquiring the
technology and customers of UK business Creative Food Systems
(CFS), reports Lindsey Partos.
International Specialty Products (ISP) continues to consolidate its
position on the ingredients market with the news this week that it
has acquired Brazilian ingredient systems company Germinal.
