On May 15, 2012, the Company’s stockholders approved the Company’s name change to Ingredion Incorporated (“Ingredion”) from Corn Products
International, Inc. We believe the name better reflects our position as a leading global manufacturer and supplier of starch and sweetener ingredients to a range of industries, including packaged food, beverage, brewing and industrial customers. Ingredion was incorporated as a Delaware corporation in 1997 and its common stock is traded on the New York Stock Exchange.
For purposes of this report, unless the context otherwise requires, all references herein to the “Company,” “Ingredion,” “we,” “us,” and “our” shall
mean Ingredion Incorporated and its subsidiaries.
On October 1, 2010, the Company acquired National Starch, a global developer and manufacturer of specialty modified starches from Akzo Nobel
N.V., headquartered in the Netherlands. National Starch is a recognized innovator in starch and food ingredients. Its technologies are supported by a research and development infrastructure and protected by more than 800 patents and patents pending, which drive development of advanced specialty starches for the next generation of food products.
Ingredion supplies a broad range of customers in many diverse industries around the world, including the food, beverage, brewing, pharmaceutical,
paper and corrugated products, textile and personal care industries, as well as the global animal feed and corn oil markets.
Our product line includes starches and sweeteners, animal feed products and edible corn oil. Our starch-based products include both food-grade and industrial starches. Our sweetener products include glucose syrups, high maltose syrups, high fructose corn syrup (“HFCS”), caramel color, dextrose, polyols, maltodextrins and glucose and syrup solids.
Our products are derived primarily from the processing of corn and other starch-based materials, such as tapioca, potato and rice.
