INCI: Cyamopsis tetragonoloba gum

As a versatile emulsifier and thickener, guar gum is an essential ingredient in DIY creams and lotions. Extracted from the seeds of the guar plant, this non-ionic (does not carry an electrical charge) gum offers a wide range of benefits. It improves the texture, viscosity, and stability of formulations without causing any interference or destabilisation.

With its ability to interact with various ingredients and enhance overall performance, non-ionic guar gum is a valuable addition to cosmetic, food, and pharmaceutical products. It's easy to use and highly compatible with other ingredients.

Sizes: 50g, 100g, 250g, 500g, 1kg, 2kg, 5kg or 10kg.

This product is certified: Vegan, Food Safe, and Beauty Without Cruelty.

Food Safe: These ingredients are pure, originally food grade, and commonly used in food. They are handled in hygienic conditions, and our facility is inspected and approved as food safe by local municipal health authorities. However, as we are not a certified food production facility, we do not label these items as food grade.
