Guar Gum Industrial Grade

Guar gum itself is a natural substance derived from the endosperm of guar beans or seeds (Cyamopsis tetragonoloba).

Guar gum industrial grade is a valuable industrial additive that enhances the efficiency and effectiveness of processes across diverse industries. Its ability to control viscosity, stabilize solutions, and provide binding properties makes it an essential component in the production of a wide range of industrial products and applications.

High-quality guar gum industrial grade is free from impurities and contaminants, ensuring consistent performance in industrial processes. It adheres to established safety and quality standards, as well as regulatory requirements in various sectors.


Guar Gum is relatively cost effective as compared to other thickeners and stabilizers along with it being an effective binder, plasticizer and emulsifier.
