A key strength of CaraGumĀ®, is the ability to understand individual raw materials, their synergies with other materials, their functionality in different food processes.

This enables us to maintain our position in the field of Food Market.

CaraGumĀ® is not a raw material producer. When you receive a stabilizer system recommendation, you can be sure that it is based on achieving the best possible functionality.

In addition, where regulation and your company policy restricts the use of certain raw materials; Caragum has the experience and is able to use alternative systems or ingredients with little or no trade off in terms of quality. New raw materials are constantly being analysed in our laboratory in Marseille. Our research team evaluates how this new knowledge might best be applied to customers needs; whether they are improved texture, viscosity, cost saving or innovation on a product or process level.

Reasons for new product development are varied but generally they can encompass.

  • The will to innovate
  • Extensions to existing successful product lines
  • Changes in customers' tastes and requests
  • The need to replace raw materials due to inappropriate consumption or regulatory response
  • Market competition
