Food Additives
Food Additives
Food additives play a crucial role in the food industry by enhancing flavor, preserving freshness, improving texture, and providing essential nutrients. These substances ensure that our food not only tastes good but also meets safety standards. At MTC Chemical, we offer a wide range of food additives that cater to various needs in the food production process.
Antioxidants and Antimicrobials
Antioxidants are vital for preserving the freshness and extending the shelf life of food products. They prevent oxidation, which can cause spoilage. Our offerings include Ascorbic Acid (E 300), Sodium Ascorbate (E 301), and Sodium Erythorbate (E 316). In addition to antioxidants, antimicrobials are essential for inhibiting the growth of harmful bacteria and fungi. Key products in this category include Sorbic Acid (E 200), Potassium Sorbate (E 202), and Sodium Benzoate (E 211).
