Applications :
Confectionary & Ice-Cream Industry The purpose of using glucose in making Jams
and Jellies is to prevent their cane sugar ingredient from crystallizing. In addition
to this, glucose syrup prevents spoilage of the product without unduly increasing
its sweetness. In confectionery, hard candies are made entirely out of Glucose syrup,
without additing cane sugar. In Ice Cream, Glucose syrup not only prevents sucrose
crystallization but also imparts a smoother texture.
Bakery Industry
Commercial Bakeries do use liquid glucose for pies, cream fillings, éclairs
& candies.
Tobacco Industry
Glucose syrup is used in the preparation of Chewing Tobacco to impart flavour and
to promote desirable texture and keeping qualities. It is also used for flavouring
and dressing tobacco for Cigarettes.
Pharmaceutical Industry
In the Pharmaceutical industry, it is used as a base for various liquid formulations,
such as tonics, elixirs, cough syrups, etc. It has a moderate sweetness, which is
preferable to the excessive sweetness of sugar. Also, it has the advantage of not
crystallizing when stored.
Tanning Industry
The action of glucose in Tanning gives pliability and weight to the leather. In
the chrome process glucose syrup is used because of its reducing action. This causes
the chrome to be precipitated into the body of the leather Approx. 5% of the weight
of the finished leather is introduced in the form of sugar.
Packaging
Liquid Glucose is available in HDPE Drums Nett.wg. 300 Kg.
