Industry Code : C2151
This class consists of units mainly engaged in milling flour, (except rice flour) or in manufacturing cereal starch, gluten, starch sugars or arrowroot. Flour can be described as a fine powder that is obtained by grinding and sifting the meat of grains. It is chiefly used in baking foods. Starch is a natural nutrient carbohydrate that is derived from a variety of plants (e.g. corn, potatoes, rice, and wheat). It is usually prepared as a powder and is chiefly used in food production. Gluten is a mix of plant proteins that are derived from cereal grains like wheat. It is chiefly used as a substitute for flour in food production. Arrowroot is a form of starch derived from some plants and is chiefly used as a thickener in food production. Starch sugar is a type of sugar produced from large quantities of starch by a combination of acids and corn. It is commonly used in food production and is not as sweet as cane sugar.
