Jungbunzlauer's gellan gum delivers crystal-clear gels with very high gel strength

Jungbunzlauer, a global leader in high-quality, sustainable ingredients from natural sources, has launched TayaGel^® Modus, a gellan gum designed to deliver clarity and high gel strength in a wide range of applications. This texturant creates an elastic, firm and slightly brittle gel and offers new possibilities for formulators seeking a strong vegan alternative to gelatine in desserts.

Developed in line with Jungbunzlauer's purpose – to create naturally better ingredients that enhance everyday life –TayaGel^® Modus meets the growing demand for label-friendly solutions. Its unique functionality offers formulators a versatile solution to meet evolving consumer expectations without compromising on performance.

"TayaGel^® Modus further strengthens our texturants offer to customers. This new product provides formulators with a unique gellan gum that delivers an even broader range of customer-preferred textures by combining TayaGel^® Modus with TayaGel^® HA, TayaGel^® LA and our xanthan gum grades" said Jens Birrer, VP Texturants at Jungbunzlauer. "From single ingredients to more complex blends, this innovation reflects our commitment to helping customers with label-friendly solutions for their increasingly complex formulations."

This represents Jungbunzlauer's second texturant launch in less than a year, reflecting the company's focus on supporting customers with trusted, high-quality solutions that simplify formulation challenges and enable greater innovation.

TayaGel^® Modus will debut at Fi Europe 2025, taking place 2 – 4 December in Paris, Porte de Versailles (Booth 72Q80). Visitors are invited to sample recipes featuring TayaGel^® Modus and other naturally derived ingredients and meet Jungbunzlauer's experts to discuss application needs and formulation challenges.
