Starch and Stabilisers

Starches and stabilizers are essential ingredients in the food industry, providing texture, consistency, and shelf stability. Starches, derived from plants like corn, potatoes, tapioca and rice, are used as thickeners, gelling agents, and emulsifiers in products such as sauces, soups, and desserts. Stabilisers, including gums and pectins, help maintain the desired texture and prevent separation in dairy products, salad dressings, and beverages. They enhance the mouthfeel, improve the appearance, and extend the shelf life of food items. Together, starches and stabilisers play a critical role in delivering high-quality, consistent, and appealing food products to consumers.
