Illustrative product overview

From guar bean to guar gum powder

A simplified view of the typical process from the guar plant to the finished powder. Exact processing methods vary by producer and product specification.

  1. Guar plant

    Guar beans develop in pods on the guar plant.

  2. Pods and seeds

    Mature pods contain the seeds used to produce guar gum.

  3. Crushing & germ separation

    Seeds are processed to separate the germ from the gum-bearing portion.

  4. Dehusking & endosperm

    The husk is removed, leaving the endosperm used for guar gum.

  5. Milling & screening

    The endosperm is milled and screened into guar gum powder.

  6. Powder & applications

    The resulting powder is assessed against the required grade, specification and intended application.
