ILCARGUM®

By grinding the carob seeds, a tasteless and white powder is obtained, locust bean gum, or carob bean gum.
This product, thanks to its composition, has a high viscosity and is able to absorb large quantities of water. It is a completely natural food additive and is classified as E410 having a stabilizing, thickening and emulsifying effect.
In the food industry it is used in the preparation of creams, ice creams, spreadable cheeses, salad dressing, sauces, puddings, canned meats, fruit juices and much more.
In an Industry 4.0 model, our latest generation plant transforms the excellent local carob we have into high quality Locust bean gum, both in color and viscosity.
