In 2016, the global market for modified starch was worth USD 9.36 billion. It is expected to grow at a 5.7% CAGR between 2017 and 2025. The global market is expected to grow due to rising demand for convenience foods and the rapid development of the pharmaceutical industry in Asia Pacific. It is highly competitive and fragmented, with many companies concentrated in North America and Europe as well as the Asia Pacific.
Due to high demand from different end-use industries, the U.S. has always been a leading country in the global starch market. Food & Beverage, Oil and Drilling, Pharmaceuticals, Animal Fee, Oil and Drilling, Petroleum, Petrol and Drilling, Paper, Textiles and Paper are the major end-use industries. Because of their low cost, availability, and ease in processing, modified starches are usually made from wheat and maize.
In terms of collaboration with large-scale producers, small-scale mill owners are an important part of the manufacturing process. They also act as contract manufacturers. The majority of prominent companies in this market focus on research and development to use new technology in processing to improve product properties, and overall capabilities.
Modified starch products are used extensively in the F&B industry as stabilizers, emulsifiers and thickening agents for the production of biscuits, cakes, noodles and other convenience foods. Asia Pacific will be the fastest growing market due to the expansion of production facilities in the region and the increasing product demand from the textile, paper and food sectors.
Volume growth is expected to be rapid at 4.6% between 2017 and 2025 for cationic starches. This is due to the unique properties of the product, such as dry strength and emulsification sizing agents. It is widely used in the paper industry. These factors, along with the retention and drainage characteristics will increase the demand for paper products over the next few years. In 2016, starch esters and ethers dominated the market.
These products are expected to see a rise in demand due to their ability to improve food texture and shelf-life. The segment will also be driven by a positive outlook for the food and beverage industries in China and India. These emerging economies will also see a significant increase in the demand for advanced medicines from consumers, which in turn will drive product demand over this forecast period.
In 2016, the corn-based modified Starch segment led the market and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period, expanding at a CAGR 5.9%. Corn is one the most readily available raw materials. Modified starch made from corn is used extensively in many industries. It can be used as thickening agents and stabilizers. Cassava starch can be found in many applications such as food, drinks, confectionery and paper. These products have remarkable properties, including high paste clarity, freeze stability, and viscosity. This is what has driven the growth of the cassava-based market.
The thickeners market dominated in terms of revenue in 2016. It is expected to rise at a CAGR 5.7% during the forecast period. Modified starch is used as a thickening agent to increase the viscosity without affecting other properties. It is widely used in F&B, particularly in sauces and gravies. It can also be used to emulsify end-use products in many industries, particularly in F&B products containing flavored oils. Over the forecast period, the emulsifier market is expected to see healthy growth.
Globally, the food & beverages segment dominated the market and held 37.6% revenue share in 2016. It is often used in desserts and can thicken by adding cold water or milk. Similar to cheese sauce granules, gravy granules can be thickened using boiling water to prevent the product from becoming lumpy.
Small mills that are close to root crop farms have the advantage of reducing transportation and logistics costs. This has resulted in lower overheads and improved efficiency. India is the Asia Pacific's largest producer of raw textile materials and the government has been able to influence the market.
North America dominated the global market, with a more than 40% revenue share in 2016. The region's growing awareness of the health benefits of low-fat foods is expected to drive product demand, especially in the United States, which is the largest producer of corn and cornstarch in the world. Canada is the second largest contributor to the North American market due to rising demand for animal feed products. New growth opportunities have been created in Asia Pacific by favorable government policies to promote modified starch products in agriculture trade and investments in the sector.
The agriculture sector is a key contributor to the GDP of many countries, including India, China and South Korea. With high levels of development in emerging economies, the Asia Pacific region has been responsible for a large portion of global production. Also, the Asia Pacific textile industry is expected to have a positive effect on the global market.
Cargill Inc. was a prominent player in the market in 2016. The company produces modified starch products that can be used in personal care, beverages and confectionery snacks. Cargill introduced a modified starch, 'C PulpTex 12931,' in July 2015. This product is resistant to harsh processing conditions and can be used to improve soup texture, sauces and condiments. Archer Daniels Midland Company, (ADM), offers starch products that can be used in food products to increase shelf life and bake foods to add strength.
ADM opened distribution and marketing offices in El Salvador, Guatemala and Guatemala in August 2015 to expand its presence in Central America. Agrana Betteiligungs-AG, Archer Daniels Midland Company, and Avebe U.A. are some of the key industry participants. ; Emsland-Starke GmbH; Global Bio-Chem Technology Group Co. Ltd.; Cargill, Inc.
