Product Description
Konjac gum (konjac glucomannan, E425) is a high-viscosity soluble fiber from Amorphophallus konjac for jellies, satiety drinks and thickening. Glucomannan % and viscosity define gel strength—not the same as konjac flour whole corm powder.
Typical finished formats and market positioning are under Applications. Assay, appearance and MOQ stay on the Specification tab—confirm the lot COA and regulatory status for your destination before you lock label claims.

FAQ
What is often confused with this ingredient on purchase orders?
Purified konjac glucomannan and konjac “flour” differ in fiber content and viscosity—quote glucomannan % and mesh on the COA.
What should I verify besides the headline specification?
Hydrocolloids and emulsifiers are bought on viscosity, mesh, acetone-insoluble phosphatides or glucomannan % on the COA—marketing headline % alone is not interchangeable.
Which certificates or quality statements should I confirm on the COA?
Supplier pages for Konjac Gum mention HALAL, KOSHER, ISO22000/GMP (per supplier sheet), etc.—the lot COA must match what you print or claim in your market.
What is the MOQ for bulk ingredient?
1 kg minimum order quantity as stated on this listing—confirm pack size (drum vs bag) on the proforma invoice.
Is this material sold for direct consumer retail in bulk drums?
Listings describe bulk raw material for production, private label and OEM. Repack under your brand with stability testing and regulatory review for the finished format.
