Tapioca starch grades built around your specification
Four product families covering cold-water-soluble, native, modified and custom-developed starches — each supplied with a technical data sheet and certificate of analysis.
01 — Product family
Pregelatinized Tapioca Starch
Our flagship grade: pre-cooked and drum-dried so it hydrates instantly in cold water, building viscosity without any heating step on your line.
Key benefits
- Instant cold-water solubility
- High viscosity at low dosage
- Strong, flexible film formation
- Neutral taste and odour
- Consistent batch-to-batch rheology
Applications
- Paper surface sizing and coating
- Corrugating and laminating adhesives
- Instant soups, sauces and bakery mixes
- Feed pellet binding

03 — Product family
Modified Tapioca Starch
Physically and chemically modified grades engineered for stability under heat, acid and shear where native starch would break down.
Key benefits
- Acid, heat and shear stability
- Controlled gelatinisation temperature
- Freeze–thaw stability
- Tailored viscosity curves
- Improved texture and mouthfeel
Applications
- Retorted sauces and ready meals
- Pharmaceutical binders and disintegrants
- Coatings and surface treatments
- Dairy and dessert systems
| Appearance | White powder |
|---|---|
| Moisture | ≤ 13% |
| pH | 4 – 7 |
| Modification | Stabilized starches (acetylated or hydroxypropyl), oxidized, and cross-linked (as per customer's requirements) |
| Viscosity | To customer specification |
Packaging: 25kg sacks · jumbo bags · food and pharma grade liners

04 — Product family
Custom Industrial Solutions
Development work against your performance target: we run pilot batches, adjust degree of gelatinisation and particle size, then lock the specification.
Key benefits
- Specification-built formulations
- Pilot-scale trials before commitment
- Toll blending and co-development
- Dedicated technical support
- Locked specification once approved
Applications
- Process-specific binder systems
- Replacement of synthetic thickeners
- New product development programmes
- Cost and energy reduction projects
| Development | Brief, pilot batch, validation, scale-up |
|---|---|
| Lead time | Typically 4 – 8 weeks to first pilot |
| Documentation | TDS, COA, MSDS on approval |
| Confidentiality | NDA available on request |
| Minimum order | Discussed per project |
| Support | On-going technical review |
Packaging: Agreed with the customer at specification stage
