Peggs High Gel Egg Albumen Powder is a premium spray-dried egg white protein engineered for exceptional gelling strength and water retention. Manufactured by Punjab Eggs (Raja Fat and Feeds Pvt. Ltd.) at our ISO 22000-certified facility in Rajpura, Punjab, this product is the preferred choice of food manufacturers who demand consistent, high-performance binding in every batch.
What Is High Gel Egg Albumen Powder?
High Gel Egg Albumen Powder is produced from pasteurized egg whites through a controlled spray-drying process. Unlike standard egg white powder, the high-gel variant undergoes pH adjustment and hot-room treatment to dramatically increase gel strength — making it ideal for applications where firm, elastic textures are essential.
