The global Potato Starch market stood at approximately 3246 thousand tonnes in 2024 and is anticipated to expand at a healthy CAGR of 1.71% during the forecast period until 2035. Potato starch stands out as a premium starch renowned for its properties and versatility across various industries, underpinned by the widespread cultivation of potatoes as a key economic crop globally. Its unique qualities render it indispensable in a multitude of applications.
In the confectionery sector, the addition of potato starch enhances candy volume, taste, chewiness, and overall texture, elevating product quality. Similarly, in pasta production, potato starch fortifies dough by augmenting gluten toughness and elasticity, while simultaneously reducing oil content, resulting in exceptionally smooth and delicate noodles. In meat products, the exceptional transparency of potato starch post-gelatinization effectively preserves the natural colour of meat products. Moreover, its remarkable water absorption, formability, and gelatinization properties make it an invaluable ingredient in dairy products, improving viscosity, transparency, and taste in yogurt. Beyond the food industry, potato starch finds extensive utility in textiles, oil extraction, and paper manufacturing, where it enhances properties like colour and quality in printing and dyeing processes. With increasing demand in both domestic and international markets, especially within the food industry, potato starch emerges as a cornerstone product in starch deep processing, offering broad sales opportunities and promising market potential. Its unmatched natural properties ensure its irreplaceable status, solidifying its position as the starch of choice for a multitude of applications.
The surge in consumer demand for clean-label products, driven by a growing preference for healthier and more natural options, is significantly impacting the starch market within the food industry. Starches, renowned for their compatibility with clean-label attributes, are increasingly sought after as natural additives in a diverse range of food and beverage applications to enhance viscosity and stability. Notably, ongoing advancements and innovations in potato-derived starch have demonstrated their efficacy in various culinary creations, including sauces, soups, and gluten-free products, thereby reinforcing their appeal in clean-label formulations. Moreover, potato derivatives serve as plant-based binding agents, enhancing the sensory experience of numerous food items. The trajectory of this trend is expected to continue, with a projected uptick in demand for potato-based organic starches in the coming years, fuelled by the escalating consumer preference for organic and clean-label offerings. Concurrently, the robust growth of the global food industry is propelling the demand for cost-effective additives, with starches emerging as a favoured choice due to their multifunctionality as binders, thickeners, and texturizers across various food categories, including bakery, soups, sauces, confectionery, and meat products. The global Potato Starch market is likely to reach approximately 3956 thousand tonnes in 2035.
