Clean Label Checklist
100% natural plant-derived. Purely mechanical processing — no chemical solvents. Non-GMO. Allergen-free. Gluten-free, vegan, halal, kosher. Organic-certifiable.
Replacing Synthetics
Can replace carrageenan and xanthan up to 50%. Cost-effective clean label alternative for LBG. Replaces modified starches and synthetic thickeners.
Consumer Perception
'Tara gum' reads as natural and straightforward on ingredient panels — much friendlier than many E-numbers or chemical-sounding alternatives.
Labeling Flexibility
'Less than 2 percent' labeling with tara/LBG combinations allows adjusting formulations as gum prices change while maintaining consistent labeling — an economic advantage.
