About Magnus InterGlobe

Formed for one
purpose. To bring
Tianran's gelatin to America.

Headquartered in Plainsboro, New Jersey, Magnus InterGlobe is the exclusive United States distribution arm for Tianran Biotech (U) Ltd. We are not a multi-supplier broker. We carry one manufacturer, one product family, and one specification book - because that is how American buyers want a critical food ingredient handled.

Tianran's facility sits in Jinja, Uganda - an 8,000-MT-per-year vertically integrated bovine skin gelatin operation, GFSI dual-certified under FSSC 22000 V5.1 (Bureau Veritas) and BRC Global Standards Issue 8 (Alcumus ISOQAR), US FDA-registered (reg. 10061730108), tested to GB 6783-2013 and US 2127:2019, BSE-free. Raw material is sourced exclusively from free-range, grass-fed Ugandan cattle - never feedlot, never grain-finished. Magnus holds a partial equity stake. The same hands that lime the hides own a share of the line that delivers your pallet.

Industries We Serve

Eight categories.
One protein, unusually versatile.

Gelatin is a multi-functional hydrocolloid - it gels, thickens, stabilizes, foams, binds water, films, emulsifies, and finishes. We supply grades calibrated to the bloom strength, viscosity, mesh size, and microbiological spec of your application.

Why Magnus InterGlobe

Six reasons buyers
switch to a single-
source distributor.

We are not a broker. We are the exclusive US arm of one manufacturing line, with a partial equity stake - which means we own the answers to your specification, quality, and continuity questions.

A short reference for procurement, R&D, and QA teams evaluating Tianran Biotech bovine skin gelatin through Magnus InterGlobe. Every claim below is documented on the lot Certificate of Analysis.

What is Magnus InterGlobe?
A New Jersey-based distributor that is the exclusive United States distribution arm for Tianran Biotech (U) Ltd, with a partial equity stake in the manufacturing entity. One manufacturer, one specification book.

Sourcing red flags every gelatin buyer should know

A bloom value with no test method. A vague origin claim. Micro data that reads too clean. The warning signs that show up on the production line, not in arbitration - and how to screen for them up front.
