Our made in Italy guar gum, versatile, thickener & stabilizer

SOLGUAR™, is a hydrocolloid, derived from the seeds of the guar plant (Cyamopsis tetragonoloba). It’s used as a natural thickening and stabilizing agent across a variety of applications enabling our partners to create premium grade food products with the texture and mouthfeel that consumers want.

SOLGUAR™ is valued for its high viscosity, even at low concentrations, cold and hot water solubility and stability over a broad pH range. It is used in products such as ice creams, sauces, dressings, yoghurt and baked goods to improve texture and consistency whilst enhancing moisture retention.

Using guar splits sourced from select certified suppliers in India and Pakistan, splits are milled into a powder here at LBG Sicilia, Ragusa, in our state-of-the-art facility with our world-class safety and food systems in place.
