Innovation by nature since 1911
At Royal Avebe, we unlock the full potential of the potato. As a cooperative with over a century of expertise, we develop high value ingredients for food, feed and industrial applications. Driven by nature, powered by innovation, and rooted in close collaboration with our members, we create solutions that contribute to a more sustainable future.
Markets
Some see potato, we see potential!
We develop our own potato varieties, giving us full control over the characteristics of our products: pure potato starch and potato protein.
Animal nutrition
Avebe’s potato-based starches and proteins are produced from non-GMO starch potatoes through a fully controlled supply chain. We deliver ingredients that are consistent, safe and sustainably sourced from cooperative farm to certified factory.
Farm animal & Aquafeed
From dairy cattle to farmed fish, the demand for reliable, nutritious feed ingredients is the same: consistent quality, predictable supply and ingredients that perform where it counts.

“Traditional synthetic adhesives are typically fossil-based, hard to break down, and incompatible with compostable packaging standards. Luckily, there’s a solid alternative to synthetic adhesives — one that’s biodegradable, food-safe, and cost-effective. If you want to go fully green, you need potato starch.”

Sustainability and recyclability within packaging are growing challenges for consumers and decision-makers in the packaging industry. Often it is not 100% biodegradable and compostable due to the adhesive of packaging materials. Here’s where we come into play with our Solvitose Greenmelt. This biodegradable alternative for hotmelt adhesives contributes to a 100% compostable or biodegradable paper packaging.

Foamed liquorice presents one of the most demanding conditions in confectionery processing. Liquorice is inherently high in salt, which actively disrupts the foaming and gelling behaviour of gelatin, causing instability in the final product and limiting shelf life.
