Cassava Starch is a sustainable agro-industrial raw material derived from cassava roots. Widely used in food and industrial applications, it plays a central role in strengthening food security and supporting local value chains.
Cassava starch stands as a strategic raw material for both food and industrial markets. Produced locally, it strengthens national strategies for food security, reduces dependency on imports, and fuels the growth of resilient agro-industrial value chains. By transforming cassava into starch, EDENGY creates local impact with global reach.
Cassava starch is an essential input for multiple industries, from food processing (pasta, bakery, sauces) to textiles, paper, adhesives, and pharmaceuticals.
With stable yields and flexible cultivation cycles, cassava ensures a consistent starch supply throughout the year, even under challenging climatic conditions.
Global demand for gluten-free starch is growing steadily, while West Africa is emerging as a key market for locally produced cassava starch.
Cassava starch is more than a food ingredient: it is a strategic industrial raw material. Its multiple applications across food, packaging, textiles, and pharmaceuticals make it a cornerstone for regional industrialization and import substitution, driving local value creation.
Directly extracted from cassava roots, native starch is widely used in food and non-food industries for its binding, thickening, and stabilizing properties.
Through physical, enzymatic, or chemical processing, cassava starch can be adapted to specific industrial uses, from adhesives to processed foods.
Glucose, syrups, and other derivatives produced from cassava starch supply the food, beverage, and pharmaceutical industries with essential ingredients.
