The global potato starch market size is projected to reach USD 672.68 million by 2027, exhibiting a CAGR of 3.9% during the forecast period. Development of clean-label starch products by food companies is expected to prove beneficial for this market, shares Fortune Business Insights™ in its report, titled Potato Starch Market Size, Share & COVID-19 Impact Analysis, By Nature (Organic & Conventional) End-use (Textile & Paper, Food & Beverages, and Pharmaceuticals), Type (Native and Modified), and Regional Forecast, 2020-2027”. Clean-label food products are those that are free of any chemical modifications or alterations and are made from natural ingredients.

Market Driver

Digestive Benefits of Potato Starch to Stoke Adoption

A leading factor fueling this market growth is the numerous benefits that resistant starch derived from potatoes has on the body’s digestive system. According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), resistance starch helps in strengthening the colon by reducing inflammation in the area and potentially lowering the risk of colorectal cancer. In bolstering the colon’s functionality, this type of starch can prevent the development of chronic bowel disorders such as Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. The NIH also highlights the advantages that resistant starch offers for metabolism. For instance, regular consumption of this starch type through meals can improve insulin sensitivity, which in turn can lower blood sugar levels and reduce the risk of diseases such as type 2 diabetes, heart disease, obesity, and even Alzheimer’s. Increasing awareness about the vast benefits of potato starch and other naturally derived ingredients is expected to augur well for the market in the coming years.

The market size in North America stood at USD 178.75 million in 2019 and is expected to expand at a steady pace owing to surging demand for organic foods and drinks in the region.

Men & women both use it daily for purposes such as cleansing, moisturizing, and hydrating. Additionally, awareness toward natural and herbal skin care is also generating traction.

For instance, ingredients such as aloe Vera, various root and leaf extracts have replaced chemicals in these personal care products since people are now aware of the adverse effects of synthetic chemicals on the skin. Therefore, major skincare companies are labeling their products to be natural. For example, key companies such as Avon and Garnier have launched their natural and herbal range as ‘Avon Naturals’ and ‘Garnier Organic’ to attract customers.

This is impacting the companies’ product revenues. Additionally, factors such as the closure of beauty retail stores and cosmetic businesses and the shortage of raw material supplies due to the lockdown restrictions hampered the product consumption rate.

However, the market is expected to revive during the forecast period, as there is a shift in the consumer behavior towards personal care, wellness and beauty increased while they were indoors, amid lockdown.
