Product Usage

Carrageenan finds applications in two main areas: food and industrial use. Food-grade carrageenan is used as a compliant food additive, while industrial-grade carrageenan is suitable for non-food applications, including cosmetics (e.g., thickening facial masks and smoothing hair conditioner films), pharmaceuticals (e.g., gel bases for topical use and suspending agents in oral liquids), and textile and papermaking (e.g., thickening printing pastes and water-resistant paper sizing).
