UNSPSC 50591826: Dried Non GMO guar gum beans

The variety of Non GMO beans known as Non GMO guar gum beans that have been dried for preservation. This means that they are produced without the use of methods that genetically modify organisms by means that are not possible under natural conditions. Such methods include cell fusion, microencapsulation and macro-encapsulation, and recombinant DNA technology (including gene deletion, gene doubling, introducing a foreign gene, and changing the positions of genes when achieved by recombinant DNA technology).

Traditional methods of breeding, conjugation, fermentation, hybridization, in vitro fertilization, or tissue culture are considered to be non-GMO.

UNSPSC 50591826 Dried Non GMO guar gum beans, a Commodity code, does not appear in the recent state and local procurement opportunities provided. The code's specialized agricultural input—dried, non-GMO guar gum beans used in food processing and formulation—sits outside the scope of the recent school nutrition, senior meal, and institutional food service solicitations that dominate the source material. Those opportunities focus on finished grocery products, fresh produce, meal delivery services, and general food supply distribution for K-12 schools, state facilities, counties, and municipalities, not ingredient-level commodity procurement.

The recent state and local opportunities posted between January and June 2026 consistently target finished goods and services: the City of Bridgeport's grocery items bid (IFB, June 30, 2026 due date) for the school board's National School Lunch Program; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's food and consumable products for a state-supported living center (IFB, July 13, 2026); multiple school districts' fresh produce and breakfast/lunch supply contracts across Georgia, Florida, Connecticut, Mississippi, and Virginia; and Hillsborough County's senior meal preparation and delivery services ($17.8 million estimated value over three years, June 25, 2026 bid deadline). None of these solicitations reference guar gum or ingredient-level commodity procurement. The code shows no current state and local procurement activity and warrants a skip unless your firm supplies finished food products into school nutrition or institutional food service channels where guar gum appears as a formulation ingredient in vendor-submitted products.
