Market Overview
Clean label starches are starches that are processed in a limited way from their source, like corn, wheat, potato, and tapioca, without any chemical change or artificial additives. The South Korean market is posting sustainable growth as manufacturers react to consumers requirements for easier to identify ingredients. The largest application comes from the food industry since clean label starches are universally applied as stabilizers, thickeners, and texturizers in bakery items, dairy items, ready to eat foods, and sauces. Clean label starch is progressively gaining popularity in pharmaceutical excipients and animal nutrition, where the purity of the product and natural origin are immensely demanded. Increased awareness of health, policy support for more transparent labeling regulations, and growth in organic and value added packaged food are fueling adoption by brand owners and processors.

Driving Factors
The shift towards more natural and transparent formulations. Korean consumers become more and more interested in labeling ingredients and more and more demand foods that are felt to be healthier and less processed. Clean label starch meets these demands by providing functional benefits like thickening and stabilizing without the uncomplimentary association of having been chemically modified. This growth in demand for organic, plant-based, and gluten-free products is also propelling manufacturers to apply clean label starches to more varied applications, a testament to steady market growth.
Restraining Factors
The greater expense and functional restrictions of clean label starch versus traditional modified starches. Clean label options potentially do not have the functionality attributes such as thermal stability, freeze-thaw stability of modified starch, necessitating reformulation. This may lead to the costs of production being higher and technical issues, particularly for producers of highly processed or shelf-stable items.
