Company description

GLUKAN Co., Ltd. is a South Korean biotechnology company specializing in fermentation-derived and natural functional ingredients for human nutrition, pet health, and animal nutrition. Established in 2001 in Jinju, South Korea, GLUKAN has accumulated more than 20 years of experience in the research, development, manufacturing, and commercialization of bioactive ingredients. The company combines proprietary fermentation technology with scientific research to develop safe, innovative, and commercially applicable health solutions. GLUKAN’s flagship ingredient is POLYCAN®, a proprietary beta-1,3/1,6-glucan ingredient produced through the fermentation of the patented black yeast strain Aureobasidium pullulans SM-2001. Unlike conventional beta-glucan ingredients that are mainly associated with immune support, POLYCAN® has demonstrated a broader range of biological activities. Its potential benefits cover multiple health areas, including gut health, immune regulation, muscle strength, and bone and joint health.
