Natural Guar Gum Seeds For Food Industry

Guar gum seeds come from the guar plant (Cyamopsis tetragonoloba), a legume primarily grown in India and Pakistan. These seeds are the source of guar gum, a natural thickening and stabilizing agent. The seeds are processed to extract the gum, which is composed of galactomannan, a polysaccharide responsible for its thickening properties. Guar gum seeds are widely used in various industries, including food, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals, for their ability to enhance texture, control viscosity, and stabilize products.

Guar gum seeds are high-quality, sorted seeds used as the raw material to produce various products such as guar gum powder, meal, korma, churi, and high-protein foods. These seeds are carefully selected to ensure superior quality, making them ideal for diverse applications in the food, feed, and industrial sectors. The by-products like korma and churi are rich in protein and commonly used in animal feed, contributing to enhanced nutritional value.

Properties 

• High galactomannan content : Rich in polysaccharides, responsible for the thickening and stabilizing properties of guar gum.
• Nutrient-dense : Contains high levels of proteins, making by-products like korma and churi valuable in animal feed.
• Versatile use : Can be processed into various forms such as powder, meal, and high-protein supplements.
• Water-soluble : Easily dissolves in water, forming a viscous solution.
• Eco-friendly : Naturally biodegradable, making it suitable for sustainable production processes.
• Non-toxic and safe : Commonly used in food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical applications due to its safe and non-toxic nature.
• Cold water solubility : Can swell and hydrate without heat, making it easy to use in industrial processes.
• Emulsifying properties : Helps mix oil and water, stabilizing emulsions in food and cosmetic products.
