CLARIA® starches are helping formulators lead the way to the future of food. Discover a broad and growing range of highly-functional clean-label starches that deliver on developing consumer trends.

Consumer needs for transparency are evolving – and so is our range

Tate & Lyle is helping formulators exceed consumer expectations for clean labels and transparency. This trend is evolving, with its core elements such as shorter ingredients lists, the use of recognizable ingredients and the expanding penetration of organic foods and beverages being complemented by new consumer desires like the perception of naturality and more sustainable agricultural practices and production processes.

Replacing traditional ingredients to satisfy clean-label demands often comes with sacrifices to functionality. Our growing range of CLARIA® starches perform similarly to modified starches in formulation, but label simply as “starch,” “corn starch” (corn-based CLARIA®) or “tapioca starch” (tapioca-based CLARIA®).1
