Market Overview:

Emulsifiers are commonly used in meat and other related products. Among the various emulsifiers, the egg is one of the oldest and most widely used variety. They are widely used in chocolate and confectionery products, offering numerous advantages during processing and storage. PGPR and lecithin are the primary emulsifiers used in chocolate. Moreover, new emulsifiers are also being developed to allow oil and water to be mixed in a stable state for an extended period. The food industry is shifting towards the use of lecithin in emulsions because the hydrophobic component dissolves in oil and water. As a result, the resulting emulsion will live for a longer time. In addition, lecithin breaks down blood and dietary fats in small particles, helping to reduce weight.
