Xylanase Enzyme Manufacturer & Supplier
Xylanase for Bakery, Pulp & Paper, Animal Feed & Biomass Processing
Xylanase Enzyme for Food, Feed & Industrial Processing
Catalex Bio supplies xylanase enzyme for bakery, animal feed, pulp and paper, and biomass processing applications.
Xylanase hydrolyzes xylan, a major component of plant hemicellulose, breaking down the xylan backbone into smaller soluble compounds. This helps modify plant-based materials and improve processing efficiency in different industrial applications.
Xylanase is widely used in bakery processing, animal feed, pulp and paper bleaching, and lignocellulosic biomass conversion
Key Benefits
- Supports breakdown of xylan and hemicellulose
- Improves dough handling and bakery quality
- Supports bread volume, texture and softness
- Helps improve feed digestibility
- Reduces viscosity in fiber-rich feed
- Supports pulp bleaching and brightness improvement
- Enhances lignocellulosic biomass hydrolysis
- Suitable for application-specific industrial processing
Applications of Xylanase Enzyme
Bakery & Baking:
Xylanase modifies arabinoxylans and other hemicellulose components in flour, supporting dough handling, loaf volume, crumb structure, softness and processing consistency. It is used in bread and other bakery formulations.
Pulp & Paper Processing:
Xylanase is used in pulp treatment and enzymatic pre-bleaching, helping improve pulp brightness and support more efficient bleaching. It can also help reduce the requirement for harsh bleaching chemicals in suitable processes.
Animal Feed:
Xylanase breaks down arabinoxylans and other non-starch polysaccharides in feed, helping reduce intestinal viscosity and improve nutrient digestibility and feed utilization. It is particularly relevant to wheat-, barley- and other fiber-rich feed formulations.
Biomass & Bioprocessing:
Xylanase helps break down hemicellulose in agricultural residues and lignocellulosic biomass, supporting the release of fermentable sugars and improving downstream processing for applications such as biofuel and biorefinery processes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) About Xylanase Enzyme
What is xylanase enzyme and how does it work?
Xylanase hydrolyzes the β-1,4-linked xylan backbone of hemicellulose, breaking it into smaller soluble sugars and xylo-oligosaccharides.
How does xylanase improve bakery products?
Xylanase modifies arabinoxylans in flour, helping improve dough handling, loaf volume, crumb structure, softness and overall bread quality.
How is xylanase used in pulp and paper processing?
Xylanase is used for enzymatic pulp treatment and pre-bleaching, helping improve pulp brightness and support more efficient bleaching.
How does xylanase improve animal feed?
Xylanase breaks down non-starch polysaccharides such as arabinoxylans, helping reduce feed viscosity and improve nutrient digestibility and utilization.
Can xylanase be used for wheat and barley-based feed?
Yes. Xylanase is particularly relevant to wheat-, barley- and other fiber-rich feeds, where degradation of arabinoxylans can help reduce viscosity and improve nutrient utilization.
How is xylanase used in biomass processing?
Xylanase helps break down hemicellulose in lignocellulosic biomass, supporting the release of sugars for biofuel, biorefinery and other biomass-conversion processes.
Can xylanase be used with other enzymes?
Yes. Xylanase is often used alongside enzymes such as cellulase, pectinase, amylase and other hemicellulases, depending on the substrate and processing objective.
