Wet corn milling separates corn into starch, gluten, germ, and steep liquor streams, yielding high-fructose corn syrup, corn starch, corn oil, and animal feed co-products — each classified under distinct HTS subheadings. The US is a dominant global producer, so imports are relatively limited, but specialty starches and modified corn starches from specific origins do enter the market and may be subject to antidumping scrutiny. Industrial buyers should note that modified starches used in food applications require FDA prior notice, while those destined for paper or adhesive manufacturing do not.
