How we work

We source from vetted producers in Yunnan, Hubei, Sichuan, Guizhou and Shaanxi, China's main konjac-growing regions. Orders are consolidated across producers where needed and checked against the buyer's specification before shipment.

For powders we check particle size (mesh), viscosity, moisture, sulphur dioxide residue, microbiology and glucomannan content. For finished goods such as shirataki noodles, konjac jelly and konjac sponges we check net weight, packaging and shelf life. We arrange export documents and freight, and we pass the producer's own specification sheet and certificate of analysis through to the buyer unchanged.

What we do not do

We do not give medical advice and we make no health claims for konjac or glucomannan; we describe glucomannan as a soluble fibre and food ingredient only.

We do not hold or claim any certification ourselves. If a buyer needs a specific food safety or quality certification document, we ask the producer for it and pass it on unchanged; we recommend buyers verify any certificate directly with the issuing body.

We do not sell to consumers — nothing is sold on this site — and we do not manufacture; we are a trader.
