5) Research and Development Institutions:
Research and development institutions, including universities, laboratories, and research
centres, can also be potential customers.
• These institutions may require high-quality chitin and chitosan raw powder for their
scientific studies, investigations, and development of novel applications.
• Collaboration with these customers can also lead to further advancements in extract ion
techniques, chitosan modification, and the exploration of new applications.
6) Other Industries:
Other industries, such as food and beverage, textile, paper, and biomedical sectors, may also
have potential customer segments for my chitin and chitosan products.
• Chitosan's antimicrobial properties and potential use as a food preservative, textile
coating, or biomedical material open up possibilities for collaboration with companies
in these sectors.
