Impact Of Outbreak Of Covid-19 On Corn Starch Industry Size | Strategic Analysis | Global Outlook | Increasing Demand With Leading Key Players

Corn starch is also referred to as maize starch or corn flour. It is produced from the endosperm of the kernel. The starch has wide application range in the household, industrial, and culinary purposes.

In culinary, corn starch is extensively used as a thickening agent for gravies, pies, soups, sauces, glazes, desserts, and casseroles among others. It is also used in manufacturing bio-plastics and preparation of corn syrup.

Primarily, corn starch is gluten free in nature and is made from corn and only contains carbohydrate.

The corn starch market is categorized on the basis of product into native starch, modified starch and sweeteners.  Among all the segments, sweetener is anticipated to be one of the leading segments in the corn starch market, owing to rising awareness regarding the use of sweeteners in various regions. The sweeteners derived from corn starch are usually cost-efficient.

Use of other source derived starches such as rice starch, potato starch, and tapioca starch among other starches is likely to interfere with growth of the corn starch market during the forecast period. In addition, rising prices of raw material is increasing price of the product subsequently. This, in turn, is hindering the adoption rate of the corn starch in various end-user industry.

Nevertheless, growing trend of substituting petroleum with ethanol is anticipated to be one of the key driving factors for the corn starch market during the forecast period. As per market analyst, the global corn starch market is likely to witness exponential growth in coming years. The growth rate is attributed to growing usage of corn starch in food and beverages industry, processed food, detergent industry, and paper and board industry among others.

Global Corn Starch Market – Overview

The increasing consumption of convenience and ready to eat foods and a solid year on year growth in textile and paper industry are projected to create a highly fertile landscape for the development of the global sales of corn starch, particularly in the regional segment of Asia Pacific. These projections are according to the research report published by Transparency Market Research about the global corn starch market. Customers of corn starch are now trying to seek different alternatives to cane sugar that are less expensive and yet easily fit into several applications. This has helped in creating a huge demand for corn starch.

According to the research report by Transparency Market Research, the global corn starch market is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 4.8% over the course of the given period of forecast ranging from 2016 to 2024.
