Gum rosins ranging from Glycerol, Pentaerythritol or modified rosins and esters. As well as Maleic, Fumaric and dispersions!!!
Gum Rosins
Our AKGR004 is supplied in flakes, selected in origin specifically to comply with the most strict requirements for applications in cosmetics, specially the depilatory waxes. Our AKGR107 is a non Crystallizing Gum Rosin, ideal for some applications in adhesives. AKGR003 is our most common raw material, supplied in 225 kg drums, originated from Pinus Elliottis, typical from South American Pines.
Esters of Gum Rosin
Pentaerythritol or Glycerol esters for many applications. AKGR920 and AKGR922 are glycerol esters which comply with the requirements for the Food Additives Regulation, by its E number E445. Can be used as Chew gum and candies base, additives for the beverage industry as well. We also have other grades for the industrial applications from construction, to adhesives and paintings.
