Locust Bean Gum (Carob Gum)

Locust Bean Gum is a galactomannan polysaccharide derived from the carob tree. It’s used for its smooth texture, synergistic gelling, and water-binding properties.


Key Features:

  • Synergistic with xanthan and carrageenan
  • Binds water without forming gel
  • Improves consistency and stability
  • Non-slimy texture


Industrial Uses:

  • Cosmetics – moisturisers and emulsions
  • Surface Treatments – adds viscosity and stabilisation
  • Adhesives – smooth, workable flow


Available in: Powder.
