Xanthan Gum – Natural Thickener & Stabiliser

Xanthan Gum is a natural, plant-based thickener used to control viscosity and flow in textile dyeing, hand-painting, and screen printing. Produced through natural fermentation, it creates a smooth, stable paste that holds dyes and pigments in place for crisp, controlled application on fabric.

Kraftkolour’s Xanthan Gum hydrates quickly in water, forming a gel-like texture that maintains stability across temperature changes. Its shear-thinning properties allow easy spreading when brushed or printed but hold firmly once at rest — giving you precise, bleed-free patterns.

Benefits

Xanthan Gum offers excellent control, eco-safety, and performance for print and paint work. It’s perfect for studios needing professional-quality results without synthetic additives.

Ideal Applications:

  • Screen printing, silk painting, and resist dyeing
  • Surface design, fabric marbling, and direct painting
  • Eco-conscious production and classroom use
