The gum production process is fully automated, with sophisticated computerised equipment ensuring exact recipes and high standards every time.
“The final production process varies depending on the type of Gum”We add sugar, gum base (the chewy part of the gum) to a mixer, along with other ingredients & additives including sweeteners and flavours. The mix thickens like a dough.
The extruded gum is cut into long strips or pellets. It’s then cooled in a temperature-controlled room until it reaches a stable consistency where it won't stick.
If need for the product being produced, we coat and flavour the gum pellets, balls or dragées to form a crunchy shell. Next, Finally, we control the drying process by precisely regulating temperature and humidity levels.
Then we wrap and pack the gum, ensuring that the product is presented well and that it is fresh when consumers open the pack.

The technology in modern candy manufacturing is extremely sophisticated, using highly automated, computer-controlled machines integrated with sophisticated electronics and programmable controllers.
“The final production process varies depending on the type of candy”We dissolve solid ingredients, such as sugar together with glucose syrup in water. They are then automatically weighed and blended in electronically-controlled mixing units with other ingredients like condensed milk.
The basic blend passes through a cooking stage, where most of the water is removed. All cookers work under vacuum in order to preserve the freshness of the ingredients.
The candy mixture undergoes either a depositing or die-forming process so that it can be Shaped & Cooled into the desired form.
Cooled candies are immediately wrapped in different packs. Packaging lines perform at very high speeds and weight of the final pack is electronically controlled.
