Gum manufacturing involves the production of chewing gum, which typically consists of a gum base, sweeteners, flavorings, and softeners. The process begins with melting the gum base, followed by mixing in the other ingredients to create a uniform texture. This mixture is then cooled and rolled into sheets or formed into small pieces. After shaping, the gum is packaged for distribution. Quality control is essential throughout the process to ensure that the final product meets safety and taste standards. Various types of gum, such as sugar-free gum and bubble gum, cater to different consumer preferences.
