WHAT IS JELLY GLUE?
Jelly glue, also known as protein glue or cake glue, is used in many daily applications such as bookbinding, game board manufacturing, packaging, woodworking, etc. The main component of jelly glue is the recycled scrap gelatin from pharmaceutical netting. Gelatin is derived from collagen, hence the name is "protein" glue.
Pharmaceutical and nutritional encapsulating companies usually dispose of their excess netting. Rather than waste this material, Gelken Gelatin is able to utilize it by recycling gelatin for use in its adhesive products. There are many high-quality sources of recycled medicine and nutrient gelatin, which can come in the form of soft gel netting or ground hard caps. The soft gel netting is what’s left over from the production of vitamin E and nutrient gel capsules. The ground hard cap comes from an overdose of pharmaceutical capsules. In addition to gelatin, other raw materials used in the manufacturing process of protein glue are syrup, water and glycerin etc. Since all raw materials are 100% natural, jelly glue is biodegradable.
