Created for mild to moderate processing conditions, NOVATION^® Lumina 600 functional native starch meets the technical specifications for natural ingredients from the International Organization for Standardization, and can support “natural” claims and labels. It is also non-GMO and gluten-free, and does not require allergen labeling.

Get modified starch functionality, plus mild to moderate processing tolerance

This functional native starch provides the shelf life, freeze/thaw stability, viscosity and gel strength of modified starches. It performs well in mild to moderate processing conditions.

Formulate for performance and delicate, subtle flavors

Take advantage of this versatile texturizer’s flavor release and neutral color, which make it ideal for white or light-colored products that undergo harsh processing conditions. Create creamy, smooth textures that last in a wide variety of applications, including:

• Yogurts
• Dairy desserts and custards
• Dairy drinks, such as yogurt drinks and flavored milks
• White sauces, including cooking creams and ready meals
• Dressings and mayonnaise
• Soups
• Dips
• Fruit preps
• Bakery fillings

Ideal for use in applications where retaining delicate colors, flavors and textures is a must, NOVATION^® Lumina 8300 functional native rice starch is a great clean label alternative for traditional modified starches in white- or light-colored sauces, dressings, yogurts, puddings and shakes — or anywhere else a food’s essential qualities need to shine through.

Superior sensory functionality

The high process tolerance of NOVATION Lumina 8300 is perfect for maintaining the creamiest textures in savory and alternative dairy products. With its minimal impact on color and flavor and excellent freeze/thaw and shelf stability, NOVATION Lumina 8300 improves and protects product appeal, especially in food processes where higher resistance to heat, moderate shear and low pH is required. For moderate process tolerance applications, explore our NOVATION Lumina 8600 functional native starch.

Supportive of clean label claims

NOVATION Lumina 8300 supports consumer-preferred label claims by being non-GMO, gluten-free and by not requiring allergen labeling. NOVATION Lumina starches are produced using a patented process that significantly reduces environmental impact compared to other manufactured modified starches.
