GLG Chairman and CEO, Dr. Luke Zhang stated, “This patent is of core importance to GLG’s China market opportunities, both with our AN0C consumer food and beverage products and also enables us to meet the low-calorie sugar product specifications set out by the China Sugar Reserve (CSR). The CSR low calorie sugar products will require a large amount of high-purity STV to meet the current and anticipated domestic demand for this product. Our patented technology puts us in a unique position to allow GLG to produce the anticipated high volumes of high-purity STV necessary to meet these requirements. To Management’s knowledge, we are the only company with patented high purity STV production technology to meet the high specifications and volumes required for the China Sugar Reserve low calorie sugar product.”
At GLG, we focus on not only creating great tasting, low cost, natural sweetening solutions for our customers, but also on creating technology that uses fewer natural resources and decreases the impact on the environment within which we operate.
