The short answer
Gummies set with pectin instead of gelatin are gelatin-free, because pectin is a plant-based gelling agent from fruit. Nordic Pectin’s Classic, Zero and Fiber systems are all pectin systems. Whether a finished product can be labelled “vegan” depends on every ingredient and coating, and on your market’s rules.
Why brands choose pectin
Pectin gives a short, clean bite and suits plant-based positioning. All three Nordic Pectin systems — Classic, Zero and Fiber — use plant pectin. Gelatin is offered separately and is clearly labelled as animal-derived.

A vegan label applies to the finished product. Check colours, flavours and finishes — for example the wax and any coating — and confirm with your labelling team and any certifier you use.
Questions buyers ask
Are your pectin systems gelatin-free?
Yes. Classic, Zero and Fiber are set with pectin. Gelatin bases are a separate product line.
Are your gummies certified vegan?
We do not claim a vegan certification. Ask for specifications and confirm the status of your finished product.
