Hydrocolloids function as binding agents, stabilizers, emulsifiers, thickeners and gelling agents. The global market for hydrocolloids is expected to reach a value of USD 8.1 Billion by 2022 with a growing CAGR of 5.7%. The Food & Beverage Hydrocolloids market in Asia-Pacific to reach USD 1.5 Billion by 2022, at a CAGR of 7.2% from 2017. The share of Japan in the Asia-Pacific market for Hydrocolloids is ~%.
Market Dynamics
The market is largely driven by increased Research & Development and innovations in hydrocolloids. Consumer preference for natural ingredients and the varied applications of hydrocolloids in the food and beverage industry are some of the reasons for the uptick in demand. The changing consumer demographics in terms of lifestyle changes and growing working population resulting in consumer demand for convenience and processed foods, especially among the emerging nations. This is seen as an opportunity for the manufacturers to adopt hydrocolloids in their manufacturing process. However, the market is mainly constrained by the demand – supply imbalances. Seasonal changes cause volatility in the raw material pricing, thus raising costs for manufacturers. In spite of restrains, the market sees huge potential for growth.
Market Segmentation
The market is segmented based on type which includes gelatin, xanthan gum, starch, carrageenan and others. Majority of the hydrocolloids require raw materials to be sourced from seaweeds, plants, animals and microorganisms. Hydrocolloids are used for a wide range of applications, such as bakery, confectionery, meat & poultry, beverage, and dairy & frozen products. Bakery and Confectionary dominate the market share for hydrocolloids.
Asia-Pacific is the fastest growing region followed by Europe for the period 2017-2022. Changing lifestyles of consumers and increasing awareness on nutritional food is driving the hydrocolloids market in developing countries, such as India and China. China dominates the Hydrocolloids market followed by India. The increasing populations of these regions is driving Hydrocolloids market. Japan market for Hydrocolloids is increasing due to increasing demand for convenience foods, particularly confectionaries. Indonesia and Thailand are the major sources of seaweed extracts and unseasonal changes are resulting in demand-supply bottlenecks as Hydrocolloid supply chain depends on sourcing of raw materials in its manufacturing process.
