GMIX™

GMIX is a modified starch that incorporates enzyme-treated starch called “E-Starch”. GMIX can produce the unique texture that cannot be produced by using conventional modified starch.

Characteristics of Conventional Modified Starch:

  1. Cross-linked starch retains shape and firmness, but it becomes hard and brittle.
  2. Acetylated or hydroxypropylated starch increases clarity and pliableness, but it loses ability to retain shape.

The use of “E-Starch” in GMIX retains shape, achieves firmness and maintains elasticity unlike what conventional modified starch produces.
