Sourced from premium guar beans in Rajasthan and Haryana, processed under strict quality controls and exported in bulk to B2B buyers worldwide. Available in food grade, industrial grade and pharma grade.
Guar gum powder is a natural polysaccharide (galactomannan) derived from the endosperm of guar beans (Cyamopsis tetragonoloba). India produces over 80% of the world’s guar, making it the leading global source for guar gum powder.
At Al Fazal International, we source directly from established guar farming networks in Rajasthan and Haryana — the heartland of Indian guar cultivation. The beans are cleaned, split, dehusked and ground to produce a fine, off-white powder with a high galactomannan content and excellent water hydration properties.
What sets our guar gum powder apart is consistency. Whether you’re sourcing for food manufacturing, oil field operations or pharmaceutical use, you receive the same quality batch after batch — verified by third-party laboratory analysis with every shipment.

Food Grade Guar Gum Powder
Our food grade guar gum powder complies with FSSAI, FCC (Food Chemicals Codex) and E412 (EU) standards. Available in 200–325 mesh with a viscosity range of 3,000–6,000 cPs. Ideal as a natural thickener, stabiliser and emulsifier in food manufacturing.
Applications include ice cream, bakery products, beverages, dairy products and sauces. Available with Halal and Kosher eligibility documentation on request.
Industrial grade guar gum powder is available in 100 mesh (coarse grind) with a viscosity of 2,000–4,000 cPs. Designed for demanding non-food industrial applications across multiple sectors.
Applications include paper manufacturing, textile sizing, explosives industry, mining operations and ceramic production.
Our pharma grade guar gum powder is produced to stringent purity standards with no microbial contamination. Available in 300–325 mesh with a viscosity of 3,500–6,000 cPs. Ideal for pharmaceutical and personal care formulations.
Applications include tablets, capsules, gels, lotions and oral care products.
Guar gum powder is one of the most versatile natural polymers. Here are the key industries we currently supply to — each with specific grade and viscosity requirements.
🍦
Food & Beverage
Natural thickener and stabiliser in ice cream, dairy products, salad dressings, sauces, bakery items and cold-processed beverages. E412 compliant.
📆
Oil & Gas Drilling
Viscosifier and friction reducer in drilling fluids and hydraulic fracturing (fracking). Fast-hydrating industrial grade preferred for oilfield applications.
💊
Pharmaceutical
Tablet binder and disintegrant, laxative formulations, matrix for controlled-release dosage, and stabiliser in liquid pharmaceutical preparations.
🧳
Textile & Dyes
Sizing and finishing agent in yarn production. Also used as a thickener in textile printing pastes to achieve sharp pattern definition.
📄
Paper & Paperboard
Surface coating and wet-end additive to improve paper strength, burst resistance, and surface smoothness in paperboard and specialty paper.
🏗
Construction & Mining
Used in tunnelling and mining operations as a viscosifier in slurry systems, and in construction as a water retention agent in cement and plaster mixes.
🍌
Personal Care
Thickener and stabiliser in cosmetic formulations including lotions, creams, shampoos and toothpaste. Natural origin — a growing preference in clean-label cosmetics.
🐄
Animal Feed
Used as a binder in pelleted animal feed formulations, improving pellet durability and nutritional consistency in livestock, poultry and aquaculture feeds.
Our Quality Process
From Farm to Shipment
Every kilogram of guar gum powder we export goes through a defined quality process before it leaves India. No shortcuts — every step is documented.
01
Raw Bean Sourcing
Direct procurement from vetted guar farms in Rajasthan & Haryana. Beans graded at source for gum content & moisture.
02
Processing & Milling
Beans are cleaned, dehusked, split and milled to produce gum powder. Mesh size controlled to specification.
03
Lab Testing
Third-party accredited lab tests every batch for viscosity, moisture, ash, protein, galactomannan, microbiology & heavy metals.
04
Packaging
Packed in food-grade or industrial-grade bags (25 KG / 50 KG) with lot number, grade, COA reference and manufacturing date.
05
Export & Documentation
Full documentation: COA, Bill of Lading, COO, Phytosanitary certificate, FSSAI compliance & any buyer-specific certificates.
Why Source From Us
What Buyers Say About Our Guar Gum Powder
Buyers who switch to Al Fazal typically mention three things: consistent viscosity between orders, fast response time, and documentation that doesn’t cause problems at customs. That’s what we focus on.
🌾
Consistent Viscosity Batch-to-Batch
Viscosity deviation between batches is kept within ±5% of the specified value — critical for food manufacturers with fixed formulations.
🔬
Third-Party COA with Every Order
Not just a manufacturer’s certificate — every shipment is backed by an accredited lab report covering all critical parameters.
🌏
Export to 15+ Countries
We understand regulatory requirements across different markets. Whether it’s EU food compliance or UAE import standards, we prepare the right documentation.

Buyer Questions
Guar Gum Powder FAQs
Common questions from importers before their first order. If you don’t find what you’re looking for, reach out directly — we answer within 24 hours.
We export food grade, industrial grade and pharma grade guar gum powder. Each grade is processed to different purity and viscosity specifications. The correct grade depends on your application — food manufacturing typically requires food grade, oil drilling requires industrial grade, and pharmaceutical use requires pharma grade. We can advise based on your end-use.
Our standard MOQ is 1 metric tonne. Most regular B2B buyers order in FCL (Full Container Load) quantities — a 20ft container typically holds around 18–20 MT of guar gum powder. For new buyers placing a trial order, please contact us to discuss options.
Our COA covers viscosity (1% solution at 25°C), moisture content, ash content, protein content, galactomannan content, pH, mesh size/residue, heavy metals and microbiological counts (for pharma grade). The COA is issued by an accredited third-party laboratory and provided with every shipment.
Properly stored guar gum powder has a shelf life of 24 months from the date of manufacture. It should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. We mark manufacturing date and best-before date on each bag.
Yes. In addition to our standard 200-mesh product, we can supply 100-mesh and 120-mesh variants for specific industrial applications. Custom viscosity grades for specialised applications can also be discussed — subject to minimum order quantities. Please contact us with your technical requirements.
We currently export guar gum powder to buyers in the UAE, USA, UK, Germany, Netherlands, Italy, Vietnam, Malaysia, Bangladesh and several other countries. If you’re based in a country not listed, please reach out — we evaluate new export destinations regularly.
