Pre-gelatinized potato powder is favored in pet food due to its high starch purity, fine texture, low allergenicity and good water retention properties. It is especially suitable for pets with grain allergies. It can not only provide energy but also improve the softness of the food and enhance palatability.

Potato flour is gluten-free and is a low-allergen energy source. For pets that are allergic to traditional grains such as wheat and corn, it is an excellent carbohydrate substitute, aligning with the "no-grain and low-allergy" market trend.
It has excellent water retention properties and a fine texture, which can lock in the moisture of the ingredients. During processing, it can enhance the softness of pet food granules or wet food, making the texture more delicate and smooth, thereby increasing the eating interest (palatability) of picky pets towards food.
The starch in potato powder has a high purity, fast conversion rate and low burden. It can provide pets with quick and pure energy supplementation. At the same time, its fine fiber structure does not cause additional pressure on the intestines, making it very suitable for pets with high activity levels or sensitive stomachs to consume.
