Products & Services

Ingredients

ECO AGRI GmbH is a globally active supplier of native flakes and modified starches based on potato, corn, wheat, and tapioca.

Potato based Starches

POTATO BASED

Eco Agri offers a wide range of potato-based starches and flours originated from Europe. Products are offered in line with the European potato campaign that starts around August.

Native & Pre-Cooked Potato Starches

Clean label starches free from E-numbers (food additives). Main applications are soups, sauces, snacks, surimi, processed sea food and processed meat where it used as a thickener, binder, texturizer, anti-caking, or gelling agent. Available native potato starches:

  • Standard viscosity

  • High viscosity

  • Low Moisture (9%, 12% residue of water)

Modified Potato Starch

Chemically modified starches contain an E-number; the declaration is Modified starch. Oxidized starch (E1404) is a suitable carrier for food mixtures exhibiting low viscosities after hot preparation. Compared to native starches, acetylated cook-up starches (E1420) are characterized through lower gelatinization temperatures and an improved stability against retrogradation. Regarding heat treatment, acidic conditions and shear forces, di-starch phosphates (E1412) are stable in terms of their viscosity. Acetylated di-starch phosphates (E1414) and adipates (E1422) additionally exhibit excellent freeze-thaw stability as well as clear appearance of the final preparation. Starch sodium octenyl succinate (E1450) exhibits emulsifying properties making it perfectly suitable in the application of oil-inwater applications.

These starches are used to increase their stability of corn starch against excessive heat, acid, shear, time, cooling, or freezing. Typical applications include sauces, dressings, gravies, canned foods, and dairy desserts.

Corn based Starches

Potato based Flakes
