SMS, as a global modified tapioca starch manufacturer, showcased the versatility of starch solutions, which are available for various uses in many industries, including food, paper, bioplastic, and pharmaceutical.

SMS Waxy tapioca starch solutions are specially developed to have unique functions and characteristics, delivering excellent food profiles with premium quality. The PROTIMATE ™ series is highlighted to catch up with the trend of plant protein. PROTIMATE ™ series is an isolated pea protein powder solution with excellent properties for meat, beverage, dairy, and bakery applications.

Next to the sustainability implementation, SMS also presented the tapioca starch solution for biodegradable products, including biodegradable bags, paper cups, straws, and mulch films. To encourage household and public use, we introduced the paper cup coated with modified tapioca starch without traditional plastic, enabling a full degradation rate within 60 days under proper conditions and moisture content.
