Our journey began in 1982 when Mr. Kurian Jose Sr. founded Marine Hydrocolloids to produce high-quality food-grade Agar Agar. Guided by innovation, we soon developed specialised grades such as Bacteriological, Pharmaceutical and Plant Tissue Culture Agar Agar, followed by Wondergel, our signature Spreadable Agar, and a full range of Carrageenan products.
As our expertise grew, so did our portfolio — expanding into Plant Gel (Gellan Gum), Chitin Chitosan, Sodium Alginate, Xanthan Gum, Guar Gum and more, supported by modern production facilities exceeding 500 MT per annum. Today, Marine Hydrocolloids is a market leader in India and a trusted exporter to South America, Europe, CIS, Africa, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, USA and Australia.
We proudly serve global MNCs, tissue culture labs and home consumers through our specialised retail packaging. For over four decades, our commitment to quality, innovation and reliability has earned us lasting trust across industries and continents.
