DAYMER INGREDIENTS TO DISTRIBUTE DANISH AKV POTATO STARCHES IN UK.
POTATO starches manufactured by a Danish farmer-owned cooperative will be available to British food manufacturers following a new distribution agreement.
AKV, a Danish potato ingredients producer, supplies the Clean & Simple range of potato starches which can withstand demanding processing conditions.
Its Premium Potato Starch, developed using an energy and water-efficient process, offers one of the highest peak viscosities in the starch industry, making it well suited to soups, noodles, extruded products, meat, sauces, cheese processing and dry mixes. The cooperative offers full traceability, with all of its raw materials grown within 60km of its plant.
It has entered into an agreement with Warwickshire-based ingredients supplier, Daymer Ingredients, which focuses on offering food manufacturers natural and sustainable ingredients, including fibres, starches, malt extracts, proteins, flours, and gums.
Managing Director of Daymer Ingredients, James Brace, said: “With AKV’s industry-recognised background in potato ingredients, we look forward to exploring new ways to tackle functionality through clear labels and native starches.”
