Premium Guar Gum Powder
About Guar Gum Powder
Guar gum powder is a natural polysaccharide extracted from the seeds of the guar plant (Cyamopsis tetragonoloba). It is widely used as a thickening, stabilizing, and binding agent across multiple industries.
Due to its excellent water-binding capacity and viscosity properties, guar gum is a key ingredient in food, pharmaceuticals, oil drilling, textiles, and cosmetics.
