Archer Daniels Midland introduces Confectionery Moulding Starch

US-based food processing and commodities trading company Archer Daniels Midland (ADM) has introduced a new line of starches, in order to expand its presence in the sector.

The new ADM Confectionery Moulding Starch offers high food-grade quality moulding capabilities to confectionary customers.

The starch contains added mineral or high-stability vegetable oil that enables the product to accept and hold impressions.

ADM starch business vice-president Kris DiTommaso said: “ADM is already a leading provider of starch products for the paper and corrugated cardboard industries, where customers have come to know our high-quality products, our unparalleled supply chain reach, and our superb customer service.”

This new product is beneficial to the customers as it includes high food-grade quality with non-GMO options. It also reduces drying times and has the ability to accept high-quality imprintation, including shapes and letters.

ADM has been in the food business for more than a century, transforming crops into products that serve the vital needs of a growing world.

In June, ADM entered into a new partnership with GLG Life Tech Corporation to manufacture, market, sell and distribute low-calorie stevia and monk fruit sweeteners to customers worldwide.

The company is currently one of the world’s largest agricultural processors and food ingredient providers, serving customers in more than 160 countries.
