TL;DR (Everything You Need in 90 Seconds)
India controls 80 % of the world’s psyllium husk. 2025 export volume: 240,000 tons | Value: $1.1 billion Gujarat produces 90 % of it. These are the 10 companies that actually move the volume in 2025 – ranked by real export tonnage, purity levels, certifications, and buyer reputation. Every company profile below is exactly the same length so you can compare apples to apples.
Let’s go.
Why Psyllium Husk is Exploding
Global demand for natural, soluble fiber has never been higher.
- 85 % of psyllium is used in laxatives and gut-health supplements
- 10 % goes into gluten-free baking
- 5 % into animal feed and industrial applications
The result? A $1.2 billion market growing at 12 % CAGR. And India isn’t just the biggest supplier – we’re the only supplier that can deliver pharmaceutical-grade husk at scale, with swelling power up to 55 ml/g and purity above 99.95 %.
Gujarat – The Undisputed Psyllium Capital
90 % of India’s psyllium comes from northern Gujarat (Banaskantha, Patan, Mehsana). Unjha hosts Asia’s largest seed auction yard – 2 lakh tons change hands every season. The black cotton soil, 45 °C summers, and winter cold stress the plant just enough to produce the thickest, most mucilaginous husk on earth.
That’s why every serious exporter on this list is either headquartered in Gujarat or has their main processing plant here.
