Restraints: Limited sources and the high cost of natural additives
Modified starch is used in a range of industrial applications due to its functional properties. But, the sources from which starch is extracted are very limited, which includes corn, cassava, wheat, potato, rice, and others. The production of these sources depends on climatic conditions. For instance, the production of cassava depends on climatic conditions. Unfavorable climate hampers the overall production of cassava and leads to the fluctuation in the price of cassava.
Opportunities: Untapped application of modified starch
There are various application areas that are untapped and can be big opportunities for modified starch manufacturers. Expanding the commodity sources for extracting starch and combining modification processes add a wider range of probable applications to the list.
Modified starch can act as an excellent fermentation base for the bulk production of a wide variety of biotechnology products, such as organic acids, antibiotics, vitamins, and hormones. Starch-derived glucose can be fermented to produce lactic acid, which may be polymerized for biodegradable films or bioplastics. Similarly, potato starch wastes may also be used as feedstock in fermentation reactions. Several polymers can be prepared using a variety of starch-based feedstock.
By application, food & beverages segment is projected to account for the largest share in the modified starch market during the forecast period
By application, the market is segmented into food & beverages, industrial, and feed. The food & beverage segment is further classified into bakery & confectionery products, processed food, beverages, and others, which includes snacks and soups. Modified starches have been developed for a significant period of time, and their applications in the food & beverage industry are increasingly gaining importance. Modified starches are considered as food additives that are prepared by treating starch or their granules with chemicals or enzymes, causing the starch to be partially degraded. They are used across various food applications owing to their functional properties.
