Technical Document

Brief Overview

Guar gum is one food additive that works as gelling agent, thickener, stabilizer, and emulsifier. It is generally found in ketchup, ice cream, yoghurt, aerated dessert, and baked goods. Guar gum is added to ice cream to prevent ice crystal growth and control texture during freezing. Furthermore, guar gum can also be used as a soluble dietary fibre to lower blood glucose and cholesterol levels.

Manufacturing Process

The manufacturing process starts with preparing the raw materials. The guar seeds were split and milled into fine particles. The gum is extracted from seeds through roasting, differential attrition, sieving, and polishing. The refined guar splits were then treated and finished into powders to obtain the clarified guar gum.
