Tapioca
Other Products
Tapioca is a highly versatile, gluten-free commercial starch commodity extracted from the storage roots of the cassava plant (Manihot esculenta), holding a dominant position in global food manufacturing and textile industries. Aba Impex supplies world-class tapioca products processed in state-of-the-art facilities utilizing automated root-washing, mechanical peeling, crushing, and extensive starch-centrifugation pipelines. This highly efficient refining process isolates pure starch molecules while completely removing all plant fibers and natural cyanogenic glycosides. The result is a clean starch with a neutral taste, excellent binding properties, and exceptional clarity when gelled. We offer our tapioca in several highly functional forms, including fine flour powders and uniform, heat-formed spherical pearls. This ensures our shipments satisfy the strict quality benchmarks of international snack food corporations, dairy processing plants, and premium confectionery packaging lines worldwide.
Types
- Premium Tapioca Pearls (Uniform spherical beads; vital for beverage sectors)
- Fine Tapioca Starch / Flour (Ultra-fine white powder; industrial binding grade)
