Food Grade Guar Gum 5500 cps Supplier in China
High-viscosity guar gum powder for food, beverage and industrial formulations.
Guar gum
Source: It comes from the endosperm of the one-year-old leguminous plant – guar bean.
Essence: It is a natural polymer, mainly composed of galactomannan. You can think of it as a very long “molecular chain”, which can hold a large number of water molecules.
Core Function: Thickening and Stabilizing
The most powerful characteristic of guar gum is its hydration. It can quickly dissolve in cold water to form a viscous solution.
It is a “technical functional ingredient” that can be used in the food industry, cosmetics industry, textile and paper industry, as well as in oil extraction and other fields.

Technical Introduction to Food Grade Guar Gum 5500 cps
Guar gum is a natural polysaccharide extracted from Cyamopsis tetragonoloba.
In food and industrial systems, its exceptional hydration rate and high viscosity make it one of the most widely used thickening, stabilizing and binding ingredients. Our 5500 cps grade is engineered for applications where stable high viscosity, clean dispersion and consistent batch performance are essential.
Whether you are formulating dairy, beverages, sauces or industrial blends, this grade offers reliable performance across varying shear, temperature and processing environments — and is often selected together with modified starches with similar thickening behavior.
