The global Starch market is projected to reach 182 million metric tons by 2022, driven by the indispensable use of starch in food processing and expanding use of starch-based adhesives in industrial products and packaging industries.

Starch is one of the most widely available carbohydrates in nature.

Starches and starch derivatives have come to play a major role in a diverse range of applications including food & beverages, adhesives, papermaking, sweeteners, fuel and textile among others. Led by significant developments and technology advancements, starch is now established as a valuable and eco-friendly ingredient in a wide range of applications. Rapid growth of the food processing industry and increasing demand for starch-based adhesives in industrial products including packaging are driving growth in the starch market. Food & beverage industry ranks as the largest end-use sector, with starch finding extensive use in beverages manufacturing operations and in the production of food items such as chocolates & confectionery, dairy products & desserts, processed foods, deep-frozen foods, instant sauces and soups, and meat & fish products. Apart from the food industry, starch has also become integral to several day-to-day products such as medicines, cosmetics, toothpaste, building material, polish, and paper among others.
