Using upcycled tamarind gum products! By applying a coating liquid and drying it, it is possible to form gas barrier coatings and films. The giant evergreen tree "tamarind," which inhabits subtropical to tropical regions. Our company focused on the polysaccharide components abundantly contained in tamarind seeds and successfully industrialized tamarind seed gum for the first time in the world in 1964. The tamarind seeds used as raw materials are a byproduct generated when the fruit is processed for food. Tamarind gum is an upcycled product made by refining these crushed seeds. In light of recent environmental initiatives, we aim to leverage our expertise in developing thickening polysaccharides to introduce tamarind seed gum composite materials across various industries. 【Features of this product】 - By applying a coating liquid and drying it, it is possible to form gas barrier coatings and films that excel in the balance of strength and elongation. - By coating paper, it is possible to impart gas barrier properties while maintaining the strength and flexibility of the base paper.
