Product Description
Native cornstarch is a starch of pure white color obtained in the process of wet grinding of corn. Due to its adhesive properties, native cornstarch is the basis for glue, is used in the production of corrugated cardboard and gives the necessary strength characteristics to fabrics. It is used for printing on textiles and paper products (the ink lays flat and does not spread by the product). Native corn starch is used in the appetizing and sizing process. This starch is used in the production of building materials and various household products.
