Emsland Stärke's Wietzendorf site

Emsland Staerke's Wietzendorf starch factory was built in the years 1969 - 1970 and used for the production of native potato starch.

Since July 1986, the plant has been operated by the Emsland Group and in January 2008 was acquired completely by the Emsland Group.


At the Wietzendorf facility high-quality native potato starch and potato protein are produced.

Anually, 260,000 tonnes of starch potatoes are delivered to the Wietzendorf plant, from which around 60,000 tonnes potato starch and 3,000 tonnes potato protein are produced.
