The use of potato starch as superabsorbers is an emerging trend in the
starch market. Buyers are partnering with suppliers that are developing
100% biodegradable absorbent pads with potato starch that are used for
applications such as meat packaging and diapers. The superabsorbent
polymer is made from potato starch, which is renewable. The main goal
for suppliers is to develop environment-friendly hygienic products that
are compostable and oil-free unlike petroleum-based products.

One of the procurement best practices for buyers is to engage with
suppliers that have dedicated production capacity for non-GMO starch or
starch products. With the growing demand for non-GMO products in the
food and beverage, the buyers must engage with suppliers that have
dedicated production capacity for non-GMO starch products.

According to the report, one of the key growth contributors for the
global starch market is the increased use of starch in food processing
industry. The food processing industry is a major end-user segment in
the global starch market.

Further, the report states that major procurement challenge experienced
by the buyers is the fluctuations in raw material prices. The major raw
materials used to derive starch include maize, potato, wheat, tapioca,
and rice. Buyers face issues in estimating the procurement budgets
related to the volatility of raw material prices.
