Starch Market: Growing Demand for Adhesives in Packaging Industries boosts the Industry

Global Starch Market: Synopsis

Apart from being a commonly used constituent in daily human diet, starch finds a wide range of applications in different industries such as pharmaceuticals, processed food, and beverages, which has augmented the growth of the world starch market. The starch industry is foretold to swell its development with the surging demand of starch as a binder, thickening agent, emulsifier, and stabilizer. The demand for industrial starch has risen with the developing trend of biofuels and biomaterials. The sale of corn starch has also seen a rise as paper and textile industries and high consumption of convenience foods are growing substantially.

Product and application are the two main types of segmentation of the global starch market. Each segment of the market is studied expansively in the report to come in line with the current and future trends of the industry.


The report on the global starch market offers an all-encompassing analysis of the key growth factors and restraining elements, market structure, current trends, and market projections of the upcoming years.

Global Starch Market: Trends and Segmentation

With respect to the principal classifications considered while mapping the starch processing industry, food and non-food products could be the prominent ones. According to the product type of segmentation, the international starch market could be divided into modified starch, dry starch, native starch, and liquid starch. The modified starch segment has gained an impressive demand in the recent time on the back of the rising want for convenience, healthy, and nutritious food products on a worldwide platform. Starch is also widely used in beverages and food processing. Besides this, starch finds extensive usage in non-food products such as wheat paste, thickening agent, glue, stiffening agent, and paper.

One of the top drivers of the world starch market is the elevating demand for starch along with adhesives in packaging sectors and other industrial products. As per the different types of application of starch, the global market could be segmented into colors, construction, food and beverages, ceramics, textile, cosmetics, medicines and pharmaceuticals, and printing. Out of which, the food sector has emerged as a dominating starch processing market. Since most types of sugar are a derivative of starch, the growth in the food processing industry will prove vital for the global market.

However, maize, wheat, cassava, sweet potato, and potato are the other sources of starch. Moreover, the market could be restricted by the use of polymers in adhesives. Nevertheless, there are some important trends, such as synthesis of biodegradable polymers from starch, which are envisioned to compensate for the common constraints in the near future.

Global Starch Market: Geographical Analysis

The world starch market has different regions accounting for a significant share in different segments of the market, however, the overall demand in the market is predicted to be stimulated by the U.S., Canada, and Japan. Nonetheless, the starch and starch processing industries are also expected to draw attention from other key geographies such as Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Rest of the World emerging as good revenue bases.

Asia Pacific is foreseen to exhibit a faster rise in demand for corn starch with significant investments by large manufacturers. Indonesia and Thailand regions of Asia Pacific have dominated the cassava starch market with the presence of large producers, followed by North America and the Middle East. Completely driven by the rise of the U.S. market, North America has significantly influenced the modified starch market.

Global Starch Market: Competitive Landscape

Amongst the important players in the international starch market, Beneo-Remy N.V., Emsland-Stärke Gmbh, Roquette Frères, China Essence Group Ltd., Tate & Lyle Plc, and Cargill Inc. are the prominent ones to look for. Companies associated with the corn starch market are concentrating on cost-effective solutions aimed toward the various applications in frozen food and dairy products. Cassava starch market players are riding their expansion on the development of new products. The advancement in technologies for modification of starches has helped the respective market players to gain an upper hand in the industry.

Starch Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast, 2013 – 2019

Some of the main factors driving the global starch market are higher standards of living, increasing disposable incomes, economic development, and increasing population. Starch refers to an odorless and tasteless white powder that comprises helical and linear molecules. Green plants store plant food (sap) in the carbohydrate form with large units of glucose. Glycosidic bonds bind together the units of glucose contained in starch.


Starch is a prominent constituent in the dietary structure of humans. It is mostly derived from sources such as cassava, potato, sweet potato, wheat, and maize. Different types of sugars are manufactured by starch processing industrial units. Adhesives, glue-making, and pastes are the other major starch processing industries. Much of the demand for starch is derived from the sweeteners industry, since sweeteners are essentially highly processed forms of starch. In fact, the starch market is primarily driven by the food industry. Starch as an input derives its overall demand from food and non-food applications.


Global Market for Sweeteners to Fuel the Global Starch Market

The global starch market is segmented on the basis of product type, application, and geography. On the basis of product type, the global starch market is classified into liquid starch, modified starch, native starch, and dry starch. The food industry uses starch for manufacturing processed foods and beverages. The non-food industry utilizes starch for manufacturing products such as wheat paste, paper, stiffening agents, glues, and thickening agents.

The various application segments in the global starch market are ceramics, cosmetics, food and beverages, colors, pharmaceuticals and medicines, printing, and construction. The other application segments of the starch market are fermentation industry, textile weaving, and biofuels. The main end-user segment that dominates the global starch processing industry is the food industry; the largest sub-segment within the food industry according to demand for starch is the sweeteners segment. Interestingly, the application scope in the global starch market has been expanding for quite some time now. Due to rising demand for low-calorie and low-fat foods, several food manufacturing companies these days are substituting fats with carbohydrates such as hydrocolloids and starches.


Asia Pacific- Dominant Regional Player in the Global Starch Market

Geographically, the global starch market is categorized into North America, Asia Pacific, Europe, and Rest of the World. It is anticipated that the starch markets in Canada, the U.S., and Japan will witness substantial growth in the forthcoming years. In terms of revenue generation, the starch and starch processing markets of the Asia Pacific, North America, Europe, and Rest of the World regions are expected to grow robustly during the forecast period. Industry trends conclude that the U.S. is the largest starch supplying market in the world. The second largest global supplier of starch after the U.S. is China.

At present, the global starch market is propelled by the Asia Pacific market for the same. The Philippines, China, South Korea, India, and Thailand are some of the main regional markets that are anticipated to fuel in the Asia Pacific starch market in the forthcoming years. The global starch market is expected to grow substantially in the face of scarce inputs at affordable prices, and rising energy costs.

Ongoing market trends denote that latest developments and innovative steps in biotechnology will be the prominent driving forces for the overall starch market. Also, another noteworthy factor driving this industry is the implementation of government policies that promote the use of natural ingredients in food products.

The key companies in the global starch market are China Essence Group Ltd., Cargill Inc., Roquette Frères, Beneo-Remy N.V., Emsland-Stärke Gmbh, and Tate & Lyle Plc.
