Guar Gum Powder
Guar Gum Powder is a natural, high-molecular-weight polysaccharide derived from the endosperm of guar seeds (Cyamopsis tetragonolobus). It is widely used as a thickening, stabilizing, and emulsifying agent across food, pharmaceutical, and industrial applications.
Known for its exceptional viscosity even at low concentrations, guar gum powder is one of the most efficient and cost-effective hydrocolloids available globally.
