Quality and sustainability!<\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator color=”custom” border_width=”4″ accent_color=”#ca163f”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

SUPPLY CHAIN CONTROL<\/h3>\n

The high quality starts with the selection of the raw material. We produce fish gelatin exclusively from Pangasius and Tilapia fish, supplied directly by the breeders. Periodic audits of the breeders are carried out by our quality department, through a specialised partner company and local authorities, thus ensuring traceability and maximum safety of the raw material and, consequently, of the finished product.<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

TAYLOR MADE<\/h3>\n

The company\u2019s extensive experience in the production of gelatine and its flexibility give it an added strength, i.e. the ability to offer a specific product tailored to the customer\u2019s needs.<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

COLOUR AND LOW TURBIDITY<\/h3>\n

Fish, compared to the other raw materials used to produce gelatine, is white in colour and has very low turbidity.<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

SUSTAINABILITY<\/h3>\n

Various audits are also carried out on sustainability, both on suppliers and in our facilities. Most of our suppliers are also certified with the following certification bodies: ASC, MSC, BAP, GAP.<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

FISH GELATIN HALAL & KOSHER<\/h3>\n

In addition to the system certifications, we also offer a fish gelatin Halal and Kosher certified products.<\/p>\n

What is fish gelatin?<\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator color=”custom” border_width=”4″ accent_color=”#ca163f”][vc_column_text]Gelatin is a natural, healthy product which is used for its many physical and quality-based properties in a variety of fields: food, pharmaceutical, pet food, as well as for technical applications. Fish collagen also has the distinction of having a sustainable production process, starting with the farming.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Where does fish gelatine come from?<\/h3>\n

We produce gelatin from fish skin, using freshwater and farmed fish, such as Tilapia and Pangasius. Fish gelatin is produced by the partial hydrolysis of the collagen that is naturally found in the skin.
\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Is it suitable for human consumption?<\/h3>\n

All the fish gelatin that we produce is suitable for human consumption. Lapi Gelatine is certified as a producer of gelatin for human consumption according to EC Regulation No. 853\/2004. Our fish gelatin is also compliant with the European Regulations for food and pharmaceutical products, including the European Pharmacopoeia and European Regulations (EC) No. 853\/2004, No. 2073\/2005, (EU) 355\/2016.

Uses in the different industries<\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator color=”custom” border_width=”4″ accent_color=”#ca163f”][vc_column_text]Gelatin is an extremely versatile product thanks to its physical (used as a gelling agent, emulsifier, thickener, water binder, clarifying and foaming agent) and first-class qualities which make it the ideal raw material for the production of numerous food and pharmaceutical products. The food industry uses fish gelatin for the production of sweets, baked goods such as cakes, dairy products such as ice cream or cheese, and many others.<\/p>\n

It is also used because it brings out the flavour of food, has antioxidant properties and prevents food from drying out, thus preserving it and prolonging its average shelf life. It is also a stabiliser and is free from sugar and fats.
\nIn the pharmaceutical industry, however, it is used for the production of capsules and pills, especially because it is thermoreversible and melts at body temperature. Outer capsules for any medication, for example, are predominantly made of gelatin. The gelatin prevents the active ingredient from being released before it reaches the stomach, thus increasing its efficacy.
\nOther industries use fish gelatin, such as the pet food industry for example, where it is also used as a source of protein.

Fish gelatin benefits<\/h3>\n

Fish gelatin is a pure and natural protein. It is made up of 84-90% protein and 2% mineral salts while the remainder consists of water. It does not contain any preservatives or additives and is free from fats, cholesterol and uric acid compounds. Since it is a pure protein, fish gelatin is a valuable source of protein for the body and its benefits are mainly related to the 18 different amino acids from which it is made, 8 of which are essential. These amino acids provide benefits such as an antioxidant effect, increased mobility of joints, strengthening of the immune system and many others.

Inside Lapi\u2019s gelatin-making process<\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator color=”custom” border_width=”4″ accent_color=”#ca163f”][vc_column_text css=””]Fish skin gelatin is produced with a complex and multi-stage process using highly technological industrial machinery.
\nLapi Gelatine fish gelatine is obtained through a process of partial hydrolysis of the collagen present in the dermis.
\nThe initial raw material is the connective tissue found in the dermis of Tilapia and Pangasius fish. From here, through an acid hydrolysis treatment, the collagen protein is extracted with the sole use of water. Subsequently, this protein is purified through filtration, demineralisation and sterilisation treatments.
\nThe final product, the fish gelatin, is a pure protein of the highest quality.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

What are the best types of fish?<\/h3>\n

We decided to use the skin of Tilapia and Pangasius fish not only because of the availability of the raw material but also because they guaranteed a greater control of the supply chain starting with the fish farm. This allowed us to obtain two important, widely recognised sustainability certifications: \u201cFriend of the Sea\u201d and \u201cASC\u201d (Aqua Stewardship Council). For this reason, we firmly believe that we have embarked upon the right path and are using the best type of fish.
\nFrom the point of view of the benefits obtained by using one species or another, the collagen protein varies only in the percentage of amino acids, so there are no significant known differences.
