Order quantities
Most gum arabic suppliers will not tell you what they will sell you until you have had a sales call. Here is ours, in the open.
| Quantity | What it suits | How we handle it |
|---|---|---|
| Sample | Laboratory work, formulation trials, checking solubility and colour before you commit | Size and cost agreed with your quote, before anything ships |
| One 25 kg bag | A first production trial, or a small brand's first run | Our minimum order. Quoted as a single bag, no bulk commitment |
| 100 to 500 kg | Pilot production, seasonal runs and repeat small batches | Quoted per order against the current market |
| Pallet lots and above | Ongoing production supply | Quoted per order, including full container quantities |
Why there is no price list
Gum arabic is a crop, not a manufactured commodity. The price moves with the harvest, the grade, the format and the size of the order, so a fixed figure per kilo on a web page would be out of date by the time you read it. What we can do is quote your quantity against the current market, and tell you plainly what the price covers.

Formats
| Format | What it suits |
|---|---|
| Whole nodules | Cleaned and hand sorted. For buyers who kibble or mill in house, and where the raw gum is specified |
| Kibbled | Crushed gum. Dissolves faster than whole nodules and is easier to weigh and handle |
| Milled powder | Food grade. For beverages, confectionery, flavour encapsulation and acacia fibre uses |
