Starch is a carbohydrate extracted from agricultural raw materials, which finds applications in literally thousands of everyday food and non-food products. Starch is an integral part of adhesive formulations and is used in a wide range of industrial applications. Industrial starch is derived from various natural sources.

Based on the form, the liquid segment is anticipated to hold considerable market share during the forecast period due to the wide use of sweeteners in the liquid form in many applications due to their functionalities such as thickening, bulking, and stabilizing.

By geography, Asia Pacific is going to have a lucrative growth during the forecast period due to the increasing consumption of starch, its derivatives, and sweeteners in various applications in emerging Asian markets such as China and India.
