Product development ability that inherit tradition and create the next
For many years, there has been a problem with matcha fading when heat is applied to it during food processing.
As a result of 10 years of research, Aiya Co., Ltd. has completed Gleaminal® OM, a matcha tea that has anti-fading and color-producing properties.

Griminal®OM(Registered trademark No. 5221678)
Matcha's appeal lies not only in its taste and aroma, but also in its bright green color. However, during food processing, there was a problem that the vividness of the colors was inevitably lost. It has been a long-standing dream of the industry to develop matcha that does not fade even when added to food.
In 2009, Aiya Co., Ltd. completed 10 years of research and completed Matcha Gliminal® OM to prevent fading. It is a fine powder made of matcha coated with edible oil. Matcha is coated with oil and fat through a special manufacturing process. You can use it in the same way as traditional matcha.
Anti-fading & Color development effect
- Coloring effect
- It has a deeper, darker green color than regular matcha.
- Anti-fading
- Maintains a dark green tone. It is particularly effective against light and is recommended for products sold under fluorescent lighting.
- Moisture absorption suppression effect
- Because matcha is covered with oil, it does not absorb moisture easily, so it can also be used as a topping for sweets.
- Shatter-proof
- This prevents the scattering of matcha, which was a problem when adding large amounts of matcha at food manufacturing plants, and improves work efficiency.
- Edible fats and oils(MCT)
- Edible oils and fats are tasteless and odorless, so the original flavor of matcha is preserved. It is a body-friendly fat that is absorbed and metabolized quickly, and is difficult to accumulate as body fat.
