♦ Market Outlook

The global guar gum market is forecast to expand from its 2024 base of USD 1.03 billion to around USD 1.83 billion by 2032, reflecting a 7.4% CAGR over the forecast horizon. This growth is underpinned by the increasing application of guar gum - a galactomannan polysaccharide extracted from guar beans - across multiple sectors including food & beverage, oil & gas, pharmaceuticals, and personal care.
In the food industry, guar gum is valued for its thickening, stabilising and gelling properties, especially in processed, low-fat and convenience foods. The food segment held nearly 58.7% of the market share in 2024 and is projected to grow at the fastest segmental CAGR of 7.8%.
In industrial applications, especially oil & gas fracking, guar gum's friction-reducing and viscosity-enhancing functions are driving demand. The oil & gas application accounted for 37.62% share in 2024.
However, challenges such as export declines (for example, guar gum export from India decreased by ~18.28% in a given period) and fluctuations in raw material supply may restrain the growth trajectory.

♦ Regional Insights

The North America region dominated the global guar gum market in 2024, accounting for approximately 43.2% of the total market share. The region's strong oil & gas sector and high processed-food consumption are key contributors. India remains the largest producer of guar beans globally, giving the Asia Pacific region a strategic supply advantage. In India, guar bean production is estimated at about 0.0025-0.003 billion tons annually, comprising roughly 65% of world production.
Regional variances will be shaped by differing consumption patterns: processed food growth in North America, oil & gas exploration in the U.S., and agricultural production/exports from South Asia.

♦ Key Players & Competitive Landscape

Major companies active in the guar gum market include Dabur India Ltd., Hindustan Gum and Chemicals Ltd., India Glycols Ltd., Cargill Incorporated and Ingredion Incorporated, among others. These players compete through product differentiation (food-grade vs industrial-grade), geographic footprint, vertical integration (bean cultivation to gum processing) and regulatory compliance (food safety, additive approvals). Mergers and acquisition activity, improvements in processing technologies, and R&D for novel applications (e.g., pharmaceutical or cosmetic uses) are expected to shape the competitive landscape.
