Gum base is a solid substance that is non-nutritive, difficult to digest, insoluble in water, and easy to chew. Generally speaking, it is made of rubber, resin, filler, wax, emulsifier and antioxidant. Resin is an important part of the gum base, providing cohesion or strength for it.
Resins in gum base are mainly divided into three types according to product technology: rosin esters, hydrogenated rosin esters and polyterpenes. The market shares of these three resins in 2019 are 22.00%, 35.51% and 10.26%, respectively.
Gum base is commonly used as the most basic chewing substance in chewing gum and bubble gum. 17.87% and 82.13% of gum base resins are used in these two products in 2019. Gum containing resin is easier to remove from the surface than traditional gum base and does not produce bitter taste. However, the resin is susceptible to gradual oxidation or melting and deterioration, so it needs to be stored properly. The product may melt or clump under hot weather conditions or after prolonged storage. When using, pay attention to strictly control the inventory and use the oldest materials first.
As a casual snack, chewing gum has always been loved by young people. Although the growth of the chewing gum market has declined in recent years, the total amount is still large. Therefore, as long as chewing gum and bubble gum products exist, the sales of resins in them can be guaranteed.
Since the 21st century, resins in gum base industry has made great progress. At the same time, with the improvement of personal quality of life and frequent social interactions, as well as the strengthening of functions such as smoking cessation and health care, the consumption is increasing day by day.

During the epidemic, many countries formulated social distancing policies. Because most people have begun to reduce going out and working at home, social interactions between people have drastically reduced, and the sales of chewing gum has also been affected. In addition, because people wear masks most of the time, the need to combat bad breath is also reduced, which has an adverse impact on the resins in gum base market.
