Guar Gum Powder
Guar Gum can also be termed guaran, and Guar is derived from guar seeds, which have a high low-shear viscosity compared to other hydrocolloids like Locust Bean Gum. Guar gum is a highly significant natural agricultural product because it is a rich source of high-grade galactomannan polysaccharides.
The guar seeds are dehusked, milled, and screened to obtain the guar gum. It is typically a free-flowing, pale, off-white-colored, coarse to fine ground powder and is easily soluble in water, and has a natural ability to bind with water molecules. In addition, these guar seeds produce greater thickness than hydrocolloids like locust bean gum, carboxymethyl cellulose, and cellulose gum. The low-shear viscosity of guar gum is six times higher than the high-shear viscosity. Due to its thickening property is useful in several industrial, food processing pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, paper, and textile applications. So, the processing technique of guar gum depends on the requirement of the end product.
Guar Gum is primarily grown in Rajasthan, contributing to over 65% of Guar production in India, and is majorly exported to the USA and European countries. Shree Ram India Gum has been the Most Trusted and Leading company with a legacy of 35 years from Rajasthan (India) as a Manufacturer, Exporter, and Supplier of Guar Gum Powder and Guar Gum Derivatives.
Food Grade Guar Gum
Food-grade guar gum is a purely natural and 100% vegetarian guar powder and is produced by grinding the husk of the guar plant's pods into a fine powder. Food grade guar gum powder is a natural thickening agent used to improve food's and beverage's consistency. It is used as gelling, clouding and binding agent to improve the texture of the products.
Shree Ram India Gums is a leading manufacturer of high-quality certified organic and non-organic food-grade guar gum powder that meets all food-related specifications.
