High Purity and Safety StandardsOur Gum Acacia is rigorously tested to meet strict microbiological and chemical specifications. With total plate count below 10,000 CFU/g, lead and arsenic content under 2 ppm, and moisture below 12%, it surpasses international quality benchmarks. Allergen-free and gluten-free, it is suitable for sensitive applications in pharmaceuticals and food.
Diverse Industry ApplicationsThis natural gum serves vital functions as an emulsifier, stabilizer, thickener, and binding agent. Its water solubility and neutral taste make it ideal for confectionery, beverages, pharmaceutical formulations, and processed food products. Gum Acacia blends seamlessly, enhancing texture without altering flavor or color.
Optimal Handling and StorageGum Acacia should be kept at room temperature in its original packaging-25 kg kraft paper bags with inner PE liner-to maintain quality and extend its 24-month shelf life. It is stable, non-reactive, and resistant to microbial growth when stored properly, making it easy for suppliers and manufacturers to manage inventories efficiently.
