Our Products

CuanTec has just started its journey of innovation and has very high ambitions for its future.

On the one hand, CuanTec is innovating across the total value chain to produce "core" Chitosan to the highest standards of traceability and process transparency, which we know are important for a wide range of customers.

We are already producing products with Deacetylation (DDA) rates of up to 93% and Viscosity levels of over 5,000 Centrepoises. Our target is to be able to produce products, required by customers to the DDA rates, the viscosity rates and the parties sizes required by customers.

Our products will be available in solution, flake, granules or powder form. Powders will be available from 100-200 microns upwards.

All products are of very high technical specification, quality, traceability and provenance, and open to audit

Product is available in a range of volumes to meet customer needs from 250g upwards.

On the other hand, CuanTec will continue to Research and Develop products and product applications using chitosan, including developing new sources of supply such as non-crustacean chitosan. We have already developed a number of product applications, which will be of undoubted use in specialist categories.

CHRYSTAL® is CuanTec’s own brand name for its proprietary chitosan core range

CHRYSTAL® will be made to the highest standards of quality and traceability at our site in the UK with ISO 9001, 14001 and 45001 accreditation, including HACCP controls using feedstock which is sourced in waters around the UK and which meets the British Retail Consortium’s standards for traceability.

We are actively working to secure Halan certification.

As we work closer with our partners, we expect to co-develop future Chitosan-based products.

We are ready to work in such categories for likely application areas of our products:

· Health and Beauty

- Biomedical

- Dental

- Water purification

- Veterinary

· Cosmetics

· Supplements

· Drug Delivery

· Impregnation/Coatings
