Based on our advanced technologies for organic synthesis and fermentative production, we sell DL-Lactic Acid produced with the chemical synthetic procedure, L-Lactic Acid produced with the fermentation method, and their sodium salts around the world.

Potassium Lactate has a moderate salty taste, and can be used as an alternative to salt. It is used for improving the tastes of beverages, etc. and strengthening potassium in addition to the food for the prevention of lifestyle diseases and meals for nursing-care services. Like Sodium Lactate, it has strong moisturizing and water retention effects, and is expected to improve the quality of food products while reducing salt and adjusting taste quality. According to salt type, the characteristics of moisturizing and bacteriostatic properties vary. For details, please feel free to contact us via the inquiry form.

Product features

Excellent moisturizing and water leak prevention properties

Like Sodium Lactate, it is excellent in moisturizing, and reduces the variation in moisture absorption due to temperature and humidity.

Bacteriostatic effect of Potassium Lactate

In the U.S. and Europe, Potassium Lactate as well as Sodium Lactate is used for inhibiting the growth of listeria and salmonella. Synergies with flavor improvement and salt reduction are expected.
