Xanthan Gum F80 is a high-purity polysaccharide thickener and stabiliser produced through fermentation of glucose or sucrose by the bacterium Xanthomonas campestris. This Halal-certified ingredient is one of the most widely used hydrocolloids in the food industry, prized for its outstanding viscosity-building capacity, shear-thinning behaviour, and excellent stability across a wide pH and temperature range.
The F80 grade indicates fine particle size and optimised dispersibility, making it easier to incorporate into both cold and hot formulations without clumping.
Applications:
- Sauces & Dressings (salad dressings, tomato sauces, gravies, marinades)
- Beverages (fruit juices, smoothies, dairy-based drinks, functional beverages)
- Bakery (gluten-free bread, bread improvers, pastry fillings)
- Dairy & Desserts (ice creams, yogurts, puddings, processed cheese)
Key Features & Benefits:
- High viscosity-building capacity at low usage rates
- Excellent stability across wide pH (2–12) and temperature range
- Shear-thinning for easy processing and smooth mouthfeel
- F80 fine grade for superior dispersibility
- Halal-certified & food-grade quality
