The manufacturers are developing innovative products that can more easily dissolve in water. For instance, TIC gums developed TIC Pretested Pre- Hydrated Ticaxan Xanthan Rapid 3, which allows producers to dissolve xanthan gum, and it blends in water without causing lumps. Xanthan gum is a versatile gum that is commonly used in sauces, dressings, and marinades. However, food processors have had difficulty dissolving xanthan in water-based systems, resulting in slower processing times. Further, the use of xanthan gum is extensively used in the cosmetics industry. Xanthan gum is an excellent rheology control agent that works well even at low concentrations. It has varied flow qualities based on concentration and co-solvents, allowing any product's texture and rheology to be tailored and controlled to meet specific needs. Water retention is essential in sheet masks since it prevents drying and ensures a pleasant sensation while using them. Xanthan gum's excellent water retention capacity enables optimal moisture retention for a long-lasting fresh skin experience. For instance, Jungbunzlauer Suisse AG provides xanthan gum that is highly suitable for face mask applications in terms of stability, flow behavior, and texture. Thus, product innovations in xanthan gum market are giving rise to several key trends that will impact the xanthan gum market in the coming years.
