The company currently serves major Indonesian paper manufacturing companies and large Indonesian food companies.
Our two main advantages
High-viscosity starch
We optimise the recipes of pressure and temperature in our procedures to produce high viscosity in starch for the papermaking and adhesive industries.
Higher yield in our area
Cassava grown in our area gives, on average, a higher percentage yield of starch than in other areas of Indonesia.
Industrial grade tapioca starch
Open a section to read how tapioca starch is used in each industry.
Textile industry
Tapioca starch is used in up to three stages of textile production. It is used to douse thread so friction and fraying are reduced and thread flexibility increases, in printing on fabrics for better colour consistency and dirt protection, and in the final finishing process so printing endures.
Paper and corrugated packaging
Tapioca starch is added to the pulp before it is pressed into sheets during pulp preparation, increasing the elasticity and concentration of the paper. The starch fills the pores, smoothens the paper surface, and prevents ink from spreading when writing. Modified starch phosphate esters are used alongside it to increase the strength and thickness of papers such as calendars and cardboard boxes.
Adhesives and glue
Tapioca starch is the most prominent raw material in the production of both dry and wet glues. On contact with hot water or chemicals it becomes sticky and stays sticky. Starch used for glue must be pure and low in acidity.
Plywood
Tapioca starch is used in combination with glue in plywood production. After the wood is dried it enters the machine that spreads the glue over the entire surface of the sheet.
Pharmaceutical and medical
Tapioca starch is used as a filler in both tablets and capsules to give them strength and stability.
Animal feed
Tapioca starch is used as a binding agent in animal feed. Pregelatinized alpha starch is used for the production of eel feed.
Sweetener industries
Tapioca starch accounts for about 80 percent of the raw material for sweetener products such as glucose and fructose syrups, which are then used in the beverage industry as well as in canned fruits, jams, and other products.
Food grade starch
Food and beverage
Native tapioca starch increases strength and therefore stability, adds viscosity so it suits a wide range of food applications, and increases the concentration of many food and beverage items.
Bread, wheat noodles, and rice noodles
Tapioca starch replaces other starches to reduce production costs, because it is more cost effective than other types of starch.
Condiments and canned foods
Tapioca starch is used as a thickener. Only a small volume of starch is applied.
Hard candy
Tapioca starch is used for hardening the candies.
Ice cream
Ice cream needs starch to give it strength and stability, which is important for transportation and for maintaining the product.
