The Aschach corn starch factory has been investing in increasing corn starch production capacity in recent years and now has a processing capacity of 1,000 tonnes of corn per day (360,000 tonnes a year). Capital expenditure has also focused on infrastructure and logistics, on cutting odor and noise pollution and on water pollution control.
Aschach is centrally located in Austria with good rail and road links and close to a Danube harbor.

In addition to conventional yellow corn, the Aschach factory also processes special corn varieties (as well as certified GMO-free corn [IP], organic corn and waxy corn) into native starches, starch derivatives and glucose syrups. In addition, the Aschach factory makes non-GMO corn starch products based on yellow and waxy corn.  The corn is tested in the PCR (polymerase chain reaction) laboratory set up at Aschach in 2002. Testing covers the entire production process from seed selection, planting and harvesting through to processing.
