Reportlinker Adds Global Modified Starch Products Derivatives & Markets A Strategic Review
NEW YORK, Jan. 19 /PRNewswire/ -- Reportlinker.com announces that a new market research report is available in its catalogue:
Global Modified Starch Products Derivatives & Markets A Strategic Review
We estimate current global dry starch production from all sources -- 64million tons, this will grow to almost 75 million tons by 2012. Current modified Agriculture production economics of China, rest of Asia, India and South America is improving at a rapid pace and starch from corn and tubers will compete with the US processors. China will be a formidable competitor to US and Europe. Demand for starch by food and non-food industries in Asia is likely to grow by 4 - 6 percent per year in low and middle income countries in this region. Over time, demand for starch by non-food industries will tend to grow faster than demand for starch by food industries.
Value added modified starch derivatives remains very attractive area due to high margins and numerous food and industrial applications. There are excellent opportunities to grow this business because of the growth in health, nutritional and functional needs of the changing consumer appetite as we move forward in the global economies. This is a comprehensive report with lot of data and insights in to modified starch products, market segments and future developments and how one can position in the changing global markets. Detail analysis of modified starches in food and industrial sectors provide in depth insights into the use and potential for modified starches.
Carbohydrate economy is moving forward with the pace of new knowledge and technologies developing at a great momentum. Besides the bio-fuel and bio-ethanol story; there are several developments underway using the biotechnology that will introduce new technologies and products that will potentially change the landscape for modified starches. Most notable are natural high phosphate starch that can potential replace chemical modifications especially starting with paper and other industrial application then in foods. National Starch, leading modified starches has introduced new line of natural starches to replace chemically modified starches. New hybrids via biotechnology will further enhance natural starches to be utilized to meet consumer demands. Corn with amylase and other enzymes in the grain that can be activated to improve processing economics of the way we process carbohydrates or to create new carbohydrates with novel properties are moving forward.
Modified starches are utilized in hundreds or even thousands of food, industrial, biofuels, bioplastic applications. Unmodified starches have limited usage due to its inherent weakness of hydration, swelling and structural organization. To enhance viscosity, texture, stability among many desired functional properties desired for many food and industrial applications, starch and their derivatives are modified by chemical, physical and biotechnology means.
This is a focused report provides current situation, products, markets and future of modified starches for foods and industrial sectors. We also provide our insights and strategic manufacturing and market positioning perspectives for the manufacturers of these products and potential future developments. This report provides many details; specific insights and starch derivatives market segment data not found elsewhere.
