Offering optimum health options. Providing support for future health and lifestyles
Unitika is promoting the sales of functional food materials such as ceramide extracted from konjac. There are great expectations for health supplements based on "Hanabiratake," which has a high beta-glucan content, and health supplements or drinks that use "Unitika L-arabinose" for suppressing sugar hydrolysis. In addition, "CoccoAce", which is expected to inhibit internal salmonella propagation in livestock and poultry, is attracting attention from Europe, the United States, and Asia.
