Corn Starch Market by Type, Source, Application

List of Tables

The Corn Starch Market was valued at USD 21.12 billion in 2023, expected to reach USD 22.48 billion in 2024, and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.50%, to USD 32.84 billion by 2030.

Corn starch, derived from the endosperm of corn kernels, is a versatile carbohydrate widely used in various industries due to its thickening, stabilizing, and binding properties. The market for corn starch is primarily driven by its necessity in the food and beverage industry, where it acts as a thickener for soups and sauces and is a key ingredient in baked goods. It is also crucial in non-food applications such as pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, paper, and textiles, where it serves functions ranging from tablet binding to textile finishing. The end-use scope of corn starch is vast, encompassing everyday household products, industrial applications, and specialized uses in biotech and research for biodegradable materials.
