Known for its film-forming and emulsifying properties, it is widely used in the food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and printing industries. As a non-toxic and edible biopolymer, Gum Arabic plays a crucial role in stabilising emulsions, encapsulating flavours, and improving texture and mouthfeel in food and beverage products.
