PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS
Our cassava starch (also known as tapioca starch) is extracted from premium cassava roots grown in Thailand's northeastern provinces, where ideal soil and climate conditions produce roots with exceptionally high starch content. Processed in modern facilities using advanced extraction and drying technology, our cassava starch meets the highest quality standards for both food-grade and industrial applications.
Cassava starch is valued for its neutral taste, high viscosity, excellent clarity, and superior binding properties. It is one of the most versatile starches available, used across food processing, paper manufacturing, textile sizing, adhesive production, and pharmaceutical applications.
