2008 Starch Industry and Modified Starch bundleS. K. Patil and AssociatesJanuary 1, 2008 SKU: DBAQ2107778 |
| Our report # 1 is comprehensive document with detail information and industry data along with description of how starch industry or plants are managed. It is a comprehensive review of several areas that cannot be found in other publications. The report offers many details of production, markets, products, costs, capacity, players in the US and data sets of sweeteners, starch derivatives, co-products including the impact of trade regulations. None of this is available in any current reports as we have attempted to compile in this report. In the last section of report is a complete list of global players of this industry. Report is discounted to reflect the year this was published, January 2008 even though the information contained is focused with many details not found elsewhere. Corn processing industry has undergone many evolutionary changes and is currently going thru more to integrate bioprocessing to produce ethanol and other fermentation products. The industry has experienced consolidation in the past few years and this trend will continue to restructure and streamline scale and efficiencies. In 2007, CPI expanded its presence outside corn processing by acquiring SPI Polyols of Delaware a major poylols processor. Recent demand on starch from ethanol has greatly enhanced the margins including HFCS. The HFCS demands have flattened due to concerns of obesity and glycemic trends. It is expected that this trend will continue to grow and will be accelerated by biotechnology developments and development of new fermentation organisms that can produce new value added chemicals. This process will also be aided by increased environmental pressures and petroleum costs. Opportunities in starch processing in the global markets remain very bright, this report can enhance the basic business model, products and markets of this industry. Our Report # 2 report provides current situation, products, markets and future of modified starches that are used in foods and industrial sectors. We also provide our insights and perspective of potential future developments. This report is discounted to reflect the year this was published, January 2008 even though the information contained is focused with many details not found elsewhere. More recently we have published new reports that include some of the information in these reports, however the 2009 reports are highly enhanced and expanded new data. Modified starches and their derivatives are the specialties of starch processing industry with high margins and their market shares are growing in the hydrocolloids and texturing markets. In the area of starch nothing significant has happened in the sense of paradigm shift since the introduction of waxy in the 40’sand high amylose in the 50’s. There is certainly a number of promising new product areas such a Novation/natural series of products to provide alternatives to chemical modifications and nee hybrids with specific functions via biotechnology that are creating opportunities for high value new business segments. In addition, government policies on a number of fronts will play a role, as discussed in this report. Modified starches and the derivatives present excellent opportunities to grow value added high margin specialties. |
