Helps limit stickiness/clumping
When gummies absorb moistures their surface goes tacky and pieces fuse into one clump. Silica gels pulls excess water vapor out of the space so each piece stays separate.
SILICA GEL FOR GUMMIES
Why Pharmaceutical Gummies Need Silica Gel
Gummies are soft, sweet, and sesitive to water. A small packet of silica gel is one of the simplest ways to keep your product stable, safe, and enjoyable to use. See the benefits below.
Moisture Control insight
Why Pharmaceutical Gummies Need Silica Gel
A gummy's water content is carefully set during manufacturing. After that, the gummy is susceptible to moisture damage.
Open a bottle in a humid kitchen, or ship it through a warm warehouse and that air can change the product.
Supports texture
Managing excess moisture helps gummies better retain the intended bite and consistency throughout storage.
Protects packaged quality
Mold and yeast need water to grow. Keeping the packaging from drifting to high humidity makes the product less welcoming to these microbial.
The Perfect Balance
Gummies are not meant to be bone dry. Move the slider to see what different humidity levels inside a container can do.
WHAT SIZE PACKET TO USE
Choosing Your Packet Size
Too much silica gel can dry out your gummies, while too little may leave them vulnerable to excess moisture. Choosing the right packet size is essential for maintaining freshness, texture, and quality.
