Starch

Description

Starch Supplier & Exporter in India

Starch is the oldest excipient still in daily use, and it survives because it does three jobs in one tablet – it binds the granulation, it fills out the dose, and once compressed it swells on contact with water to break the tablet apart again. Outside pharma it thickens, sizes and adheres across half of light industry.

Rexus Pharma Chem LLP supplies Starch in bulk to pharmaceutical and nutraceutical manufacturers, food processors, textile and paper mills and adhesive producers in India and export markets. Minimum order quantity is 500 kg.

Minimum Order Quantity and Despatch

The minimum order quantity for Starch is 500 kg. Packing is supplied in standard commercial sizes for this material, and the exact pack size is confirmed against your enquiry along with the price and lead time. Mixed consignments with other products from our range can be combined into a single despatch, and export orders are shipped with COA, MSDS and the full set of documents required at destination.

Storage and Handling

Store in sealed packing in a cool, dry place away from moisture, strong odours and pests. Starch takes up moisture and odour readily and is prone to caking and microbial growth if stored damp, so keep packs closed and off damp floors.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between maize starch and potato starch?

Maize starch is the pharmacopoeial default, with a fine regular granule and predictable behaviour. Potato starch has larger granules, swells more and gives higher viscosity and clearer pastes. We supply both.

Can Starch be used as a disintegrant?

Yes, at typical levels of 5 to 15 percent, though modern formulations often use Sodium Starch Glycolate instead, which works at far lower inclusion. We supply both.

What is the minimum order quantity?

The minimum order quantity is 500 kg.

Do you supply COA and MSDS?

Yes, with every consignment.
