Food & Beverage
Gelatin is a modern foodstuff and is used for processing in numerous areas of the industry. Wherever gelling agents, stabilizers, binders, emulsifiers, film-formers, foams and whipping agents are required, Gelatin, the natural, taste-neutral product, is preferred.
In addition, Gelatin and collagen peptides can be used for protein enrichment, fat/carbohydrate reduction and as a carrier. These highly versatile areas of application of course require different types of Gelatin; and these require expert advice in selection. HALAL GELATIN® Application Service offers this type of advice through their experienced food technologists. There is a type of Gelatin for every conceivable application.
The development of semi-fat, low-fat and “light” products in many areas would hardly have been possible without Gelatin. Whether semi-fat butter or margarine, low-fat pastries, reduced-fat cheeses and cheese spreads, sugar-free candies or wine gums, Gelatin or collagen peptides are being successfully used. The reasons for this are that, on the one hand, Gelatin is able to bind large quantities of water to form a gel and on the other it gives products the properties that make them desirable as foodstuffs. This is particularly valuable for the successful development of new products.

Pharmaceutical
Gelatin has been used for decades as an indispensable incipient in the pharmaceutical industry. Our high quality, certified, and virtually non-allergenic gelatin formulations are enabler for pharmaceutical products and applications. It is particularly suitable due to its film forming qualities, its thermo-reversible gellation and its adhesion. The most important applications for pharmaceutical Gelatin are capsule manufacture and vitamin embedding.
Gelatin capsules are an elegant and widely used drug dosage form. They enable liquid and pasty drugs to be administered simply and safely. At the same time, drugs in capsules have a high degree of bioavailability. Capsules also enable pharmaceutical active ingredients to be kept stable and protected from light and atmospheric oxygen. Depending on the drug involved, hard or soft capsules are used. Liquid or pasty fillings based on oil are normally prepared in soft capsules whilst hard capsules are preferred for powders.The development of semi-fat, low-fat and “light” products in many areas would hardly have been possible without Gelatin.

Beauty Care
Collagen has been used in cosmetic products for many years for effectively improving the feel and looks of skin, hair and fingernails.
However, there is now a new internal application – and one with a more sustainable effect. For collagen makes up some 30 % of the total protein in the human body. It occurs especially in connective tissue.
Its enormous tensile strength has a positive effect on the skin; this becomes evident when taken in conjunction with products containing the new Muslim International collagen protein HALAL GELATIN® where the skin becomes tighter and smoother. Products containing HALAL GELATIN® also help to delay the natural aging process of connective tissue.
HALAL GELATIN®opens up completely new possibilities for the development of innovative new cosmetic products. The natural protein can be used to supplement all types of foodstuffs: liquids, solids, film-coated tablets, beauty drinks, and instant coffee and even chocolate.
In 2009, neutral cosmetics generated a worldwide turnover of some 2.1 billion dollars; by 2015 this is expected to increase to 5.62 billion dollars.

Pet Food
Studies have shown that special collagen peptides are excellent nutritional supplements for age- and mechanical stress-related wear and tear symptoms of joints in horses, dogs and cats.
Veterinarians recommend the regular administration of collagen peptides to young animals to strengthen bone build-up during the growth phase and to improve the elasticity and flexibility of the skeletal system. These collagen peptide supplements are highly restorable and excellently compatible in these animals.

Technical Solutions
A unique combination of specific properties makes Gelatin a key component in the production of photographic films and paper. Our gelatin formulations are used i a wide range of technical applications: photographic films, electro plating,coating etc.
Gelatin functions as a protective colloid in the manufacture of silver-halogen crystals for x-ray- and photographic films and graphic materials. In further process steps special HALAL GELATIN® Gelatin allows crystal growth to be influenced and hence the sensitivity to be enhanced. In addition, Gelatin stabilizes the coupling and color emulsions as used in color photography. Gelatin can be used to produce solidifying film layers and to adjust the viscosity of casting solutions. It is also used in artistic graphics, non-destructive testing (NDT), in holography and in ink-jet materials.

Health & Nutrition
Gelatin has been used for decades as an indispensable incipient in the Nutraceutical industry. Our colllagen peptides are an active health-promotion ingredients that used in beauty applications, sports nutritions, food supplements. The market for cosmeceuticals continues with significant annual growth, but today consumers are more aware of nutritional products that contribute to both skin health and disease prevention.

Supplement for joints and bones
The collagen peptides (gelatine) are used in food supplements to treat arthritis or to preserve the good functioning of joints. Some long terms treatments to preserve joints in good health, make use of collagen peptides. Also for the treatment of some degenerative pathologies of the bones, such as osteoporosis, food supplements containing collagen peptides are used combined to food supplements containing calcium and vitamin D.
