Jiangxi Beiyang Aims at Exploring Greater Stevioside and RA Market

Guangzhou China, August 8, 2011 - Jiangxi Beiyang expanded the capacity of stevioside and RA in Nanchang on 28 June 2011, indicating that it intends to greatly explore the market of stevioside and RA, according to CCM’s August Issue of Sweeteners China News.

Jiangxi Beiyang has invested about USD9.74 million in the expansion project. By implementing this project, the capacity of both stevioside and RA is estimated to increase by 1,000t/a. Mr. Xiong, board secretary of Jiangxi Beiyang, said main reasons for launching the new expansion project are the increasing demand and the safety of food additives.

Jiangxi Beiyang is expected to enjoy a good development in the future. Mr. Xiong claimed that Jiangxi Beiyang is the only producer of high purity RA (RA80, RA90 and RA97) with capacity of more than 10t/a in China in 2011.

Besides, Jiangxi Beiyang is planning to build a sucralose production line, whose capacity will be 1,500t/a after finishing the expansion of stevioside and RA capacity. It is estimated that the establishment of sucralose production line will be started from 2012 and finished before 2014. All in all, Jiangxi Beiyang aims to become a producer who makes acesulfame-K, RA and sucralose in three years in order to satisfy demand for sweeteners at all levels.
