Starches

Based on the most extended range of raw materials Maize, Waxy Maize, Amylo Maize, Wheat, Potato, and Pea the recent new comer, Roquette offers a broad list of more than 300 native and modified starches readily available throughout the world.

Not only has Roquette turned towards supplying the basic needs of mass or traditional applications where bulk volumes can be supplied, but specialty starches have also been developed and fine-tuned to meet the requirements of more sophisticated end uses.

Among these starches you will be able to choose and rely upon the best starch that answer your expectations either in a cook-up or a readily soluble powder. More recently liquid forms have been introduced in the paper business.

This enables us to adapt the right raw starch to best target the functional properties of your application and help in innovating new formulations or end products: 


 

  • where viscosity, fluidity, solubility, ionicity, setting, binding, adhesivity, flowability, strength, gloss, whitenesss, biodegradabilty, film, flocculation, retention, absorption properties are requested in paper and other industrial sectors,
     
  • or whether you looking for thickening, gelifying, stability, freeze-thawing, shelf-life, spreadability, texture, crispiness, smoothness, mouth-feel, taste, tabletting, clean labeling or nutrition properties in food or pharma sectors.

     
With on-going fundamental and applied research, Roquette is dedicated to your business and to remain a world class starch supplier in order to meet your local demand or specificity.
 
Pursuing our philosophy motivated by sustainability and environmental issues, our starches are developed and manufactured using the best technology currently available, some of them being the fruit of internal process developments, whether looking for chemically modified (hydrolyzed, thin-boiled, oxidized, cross-linked, cationized, etherified, esterified) starches or physically modified (drum-dried, extruded, dextrinified) starches.
