Message from Management

Starches offer limitless potential.

Since our founding in 1919, we have dedicated ourselves to exploring and advancing the possibilities of starch. Our journey began with industrial products like laundry starch, but as markets evolved, we pioneered starch solutions for packaged foods, meeting the growing demand for convenience and quality.

As global health consciousness increased, especially since 2000, our focus broadened to include innovative products such as Fibersol indigestible dextrin and Astraea allulose rare sugars—demonstrating that the potential of starch continues to expand in new directions.

Innovation is driven by listening to our customers and transforming market needs into reality. We are committed to rigorous research and development, ensuring our products deliver trusted performance and meet diverse application requirements.

Above all, our unwavering dedication to quality and a secure supply of raw materials enables our customers worldwide to use our products with confidence. We believe that by fostering close partnerships and maintaining high standards, we advance the frontier of starch development and set new benchmarks for the industry.
