Food & Feed Grade Guar Gum Powder

Agrogums offers a wide variety of organic guar gum powder food grade for different food industry. Food Grade Guar Gum Powder is an Organic guar gum powder which is used in food industries for food products as a thickeners, emulsifiers and stabilizers.

  • In Noodles: For improvement of form, texture& retention of moisture.
  • In Sauces and Dressing : To improve flow property and as a thickener & emulsion stabilizer.
  • In Pet Food : To improve the viscosity of pet food.
  • In Soups : As a stabiliser& thickener.
  • In Pastry Ices : To prevent excessive stickiness & absorption of free water.
  • In Meat : As a sausage binder, excessive water absorber, improving flow rate, prevent migration & separation.
  • In Beverages : To improve shelf life, control viscosity and improvement of mouth & body feel.
  • In Processed Cheese : As a stabiliser and for improvement of flavour& texture.
  • In Dairy/ Ice Cream Products : To provide creamy & smooth texture, prevent ice crystal formation & slow down melting
  • In Bakery Products : Improves retention of moisture, increases shelf life, and improves crumbs, structure & texture.
  • In Feed Pallet : Used as binding sources and give stable feces and increasing water quality.
  • In Cat Litter : In the production of cat litter, guar gum is used as a clustering/clumping agent. Guar gum improves the aggregating strength of silica gel and Bentonite in cat litter. It holds granules together and hardens clusters or clumps so they don’t disintegrate. Guar gum’s outstanding binding capability allows for efficient and easy waste disposal while also limiting microbial contamination in cat litter.

Guar Gum Powder Industrial Application

  • In Mining : For concentration, flocculation and better recovery of ores.
  • In Paper : For increase in folding& bursting strength, improvement in sheet formation, dense printing surface and better finishing.
  • In Construction : For the purpose of waterproofing
  • In Explosives : Used for sludge aqueous explosives.
  • In Textiles : For resizing finishing
  • In Oil Well Drilling & Fracturing : For the purpose of controlling fluid loss & additives in the fracturing fluids.
  • In Oil Fields : For increasing oil & gas production rate also increment in oil recovery.As a synthetic polymer,surfactant and as a defoamer suited ideally for requirements of brine-based & water-based drilling fluids rheologically.
  • In Pharmaceuticals & Cosmetics : For compressed tablet disintegration, tablet binder, toothpaste & shampoo thickner, viscofier& conditioner, mild laxative and soluble dietry fiber.

Cassia Tora Powder

  • Air Deodorizers : Used to prepare air freshening/deodorizing gels.
  • Artificial Foodstuff Additives : Used as a food additive ingredient.
  • Animal Feed Stuffs : As a thickener instead of Carob gum or Locust Bean Gum along with Xanthan gum/Carrageenan in wet canned pet foods.
  • Other Uses : Cassia powder after boiling shows high-viscosity & shows expansion in water.It is also used for the manufacturing of gels along with many other food applications. It plays an important role as an emulsifier, moisture retainer, stabilizer and thickening agent with the same ingredients like other natural gums used in the food industry.
