Please Note: This product is filled to order.

This gum can be added at low levels to a number of products requiring texturizing, gelling, stabilizing, suspending, film-forming, sprayability, stability, structure, or a smooth pour.

When added to formulations, Gellan Gum structures itself in such a way where it can form an apparently firm gel at a stand still, and fluid gel when agitated.

This structure allows for excellent suspension capacity and emulsion stability along with smooth, easy pouring, making it ideal for cosmetic products like shampoos and conditioners that are typically dispensed with pumps or flip cap lids.

Gellan Gum is a polysaccharide produced by the fermentation of a pure culture of Sphingomonas elodea, and is identical to the Sphingomonas elodea produced polysaccharides found naturally on several water lily varieties. In water based products, it forms a clear gel.

Please Note:

While some of our stock products can be customized with scents, additives, etc., at-home customization should be done at your own risk. We are not liable for formulas that break as a result of customer alterations. Altering cosmetic products is a complex and variable process, and there is not a one size fits all method for the customization of any formula. We encourage you to experiment in small test batches, do outside research before attempting to customize a product, and have your customized product tested at a third party lab to ensure preservation efficacy.
