Introduce to sweeteners usage habit of the Chinese

On 15 March 2013, Quantum Hi-Tech (China) Biological Co. Ltd (QHT), a main functional oligosaccharide producer in China, announced that the company will invest USD7.97 million (RMB50 million) at most to purchase banks' wealth investment products, aiming to bring more profit in the company. It is worth mentioning that the amount of QHT's investment is higher than its net profit in 2012. According to the 2012 annual report of QHT released on 20 March 2013, the net profit of the company only reached USD5.63 million (RMB35.28 million) in 2012.

On 19 March 2013, PureCircle (Jiangxi) Co. Ltd (PureCircle) has organized a promotional meeting on stevia in Pan Cun Town, Mingguang City, Anhui Province according to the official website of the local government. During the meeting, Wu Dongquan, the vice president of PureCircle, analyzed the current situation of the global stevia sweetener market and the development plan of the company's raw material bases. He showed that the demand for stevia will increase in 2013, and that the company will adopt a development mode of "Company + Cooperative + Grower" to control the planting base's construction, in which the company will implement the purchasing program" a high quality and a high price" and "a minimum protective price", with a purchasing volume of stevia of more than 20 thousand tonnes in 2013.

In the past, most of the Chinese tended to be conservative, when talking about the use of sweeteners, though they had been approved by the government for a use in the food and beverage industry. That's because Chinese people, largely influenced by the traditional Chinese medicine theory, prefer natural things to artificial ones. To most people in China, natural things are more trustworthy and safer than artificial chemicals. Therefore, even trivial incidents or small news about the effects of this sort of food additives on health will have a large impact on the public, and even the government's attitude towards such ingredients.   The Chinese government's management of sweeteners, especially artificial ones, is as strict as that of preservatives. Sucralose, as one kind of sweetener, is subject to strict laws and regulations.

Demand of Glucono-delta-lactone GDL to be Increasing in the Future

CCM International has published the third edition report of Production and Market of Glucono-delta-lactone in China in November 2011. The report reveals that the demand of glucono-delta-lactone will be increasing in the future.

China is one of the important producers of glucono-delta-lactone (GDL) in the world. The total output of GDL in 2010 reached about 16,000 tonnes. From 2007 to 2011, the production capacity of GDL has increased a lot, while the output has been dragged down by the impact of the global financial crisis and the rising production cost during this period.

At present, there are about ten GDL producers in China. Anhui Xingzhou Medicine Food Co., Ltd. (Anhui Xingzhou) ranks No.1 among producers nationwide.

The production technology is mature, which is the fermentation method with using glucose or corn starch as raw material. Meanwhile, two major different fermentation methods are applied in this industry in China. One is calcium salt method; the other is sodium salt method. Although fermentation method is relatively more eco-friendly than chemical method, fermentation method still causes some pollutant to environment. Attributed to the stricter environmental policy, the production cost is expected to increase.

In general, China is an important GDL export country in the world. Egypt, Germany and South Korea are the top three export destinations of China's GDL in 2010.

Foods and pharmaceuticals are the main consumption fields of GDL in China. In food industry, bean curd is the biggest consumption field of GDL. Thanks to the fast recovery of domestic food industry, as an innocuous food additive, the demand for GDL will be increasing in the future.

The report presents you an in-depth analysis of China’s GDL market from aspects of production, export, technology, consumption, future forecast, etc.

China is an country of important glucono-delta-lactone production in the world. Since 2008, domestic GDL industry has been affected by the global financial crisis.

Through this report, you can find out the latest production situation of glucono-delta-lactone in China.

There are about ten active GDL producers nationwide in 2011. China's total output of GDL reaches 16,000 tonnes in 2010. Among them, Anhui Xingzhou Medicine Food Co., Ltd. is the largest producer at present. What is the latest information about the producers in China? Meanwhile, food is the biggest consumption field in China. So what is the latest consumption pattern of GDL in China?

What is the development trend of domestic production technology concerning GDL?

Apart from the aspects mentioned above, what other changes in GDL industry can be seen from 2006 to 2010? What will be the overall development trend of GDL industry in China? All answers can be found in this report.
