Company Profile
Polypro International, Inc. was founded in 1982.
Polypro’s history can be traced back to 1955 when General Mills entered into a joint venture with the Habib Group in Pakistan to establish a modern guar gum processing facility. The plant was known as Habib General Limited and later changed the name to Habgen Guargums Limited (Habgen). General Mills sold the guar business that eventually became Polypro International, Inc. To this day, Polypro and Habgen continue the long relationship.
Likewise, Polypro has an enduring affiliation with Hindustan Gum & Chemicals Limited, India. Hindustan Gum is the largest manufacturer of guar gum in the world. The history of Hindustan Gum traces back to 1956, when the Birla Brothers established Bhiwani Gum and Guar Factory. In 1962 a new company was formed in the name of Hindustan Gum & Chemicals Ltd. in collaboration with Stein Hall.
