Industrial Applications

Gums are used in printing, paints, pesticides, adhesives.

For example, in watercolors, the usage of Gum Arabic will encapsulate and restore color pigments enabling longer lasting high quality water-paints.

With its exclusive ValTech range Valmar International responds to the need for water soluble pigment encapsulation agents.

In agriculture, gums are used to encapsulate pesticides, thus allowing the active ingredients to dissolve slowly but thouroughly.
