Food Enzymes Market Forecasts to 2030 - Global Analysis By Type (Carbohydrase, Nucleases and Other Types), Form (Solid, Lyophilized Liquid and Lyophilized Powder), Source, Origin, Application and By Geography

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Food Enzymes Market is accounted for $3.31 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach $5.68 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 9.4% during the forecast period. Proteins known as enzymes are frequently used to speed up and target particular chemical reactions. Enzymes are known to initiate or increase biological events. The most common ways to obtain enzymes are through the extraction of plant and animal products or the fermentation of microbes, including genetically modified microorganisms. Due to their many benefits, such as improved texture, flavor, and aroma, preservation, viscosity, and tenderization, food enzymes are frequently used in the processing of food. The production of cheese, fruit juice, baked goods, and beer all makes extensive use of enzymes.

According to the United States National Level of Medicine, an estimated 65% of the world population has been lactose intolerant at some level.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Increase of food enzyme usage in bakery and beverage industries

Products from bakeries include bread, pastries, doughnuts, and rolls, among others. Food enzymes serve as catalysts for biochemical processes that enhance the quality of bakery goods. In Western Europe and North America, bakery products are widely used. Australia, India, and China are the main growth regions for bakery foods in the Asia-Pacific region. Alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages both use food enzymes. Better malt separation, extraction yield, beer filtration, and stabilization are a few of the major advantages of brewing enzymes. All these adverse factors are fueling the market growth.

Restraint:

Limitation of pH operational range and temperature

Food enzyme activity is significantly influenced by local environmental factors. The reaction rate is drastically reduced when the temperature drops, and the food enzyme is rendered inactive by thermal agitation. The activity of the food enzyme is also decreased when the pH is changed outside of its functional range, and this can eventually result in permanent denaturation. Such aspects are hindering the market's expansion.

Opportunity:

Growing demand for swine and poultry feed

The global feed industry is significantly impacted by the rising demand for swine and poultry feed. The overall health and wellbeing of swine and poultry animals are improved by this feed. The livestock used in the animal feed industry have been properly cared for and fed nutrient-rich fodder. During the forecast period, it is anticipated that the development of the global animal feed industry will positively affect the market's dynamics, increasing demand.

Threat:

Regulatory uncertainty

The definitions of additives and processing aids differ between nations and regions, which leads to regulatory uncertainty that hinders market expansion. The European Union (EU) member states have distinctly different laws regarding the use of enzymes as tools for food processing. Food additives in general and food enzymes in particular are subject to safety regulations that have yet to be conceptualized for regional harmonization. The development of the food enzyme market is anticipated to be adversely affected by a fragmented and piecemeal approach to ingredient regulations.

Covid-19 Impact:

The COVID-19 pandemic has been beneficial for the food enzyme market. It is attributed to the rise in consumer interest in home maintenance, changes in dietary habits, and growth in demand for the industry of nutritional and immunity-boosting products. But because of lockdowns and trade restrictions, the firms are currently dealing with stuttering supply chain activities and ambiguous market conditions. It is anticipated that the increase in demand for the substance in the pharmaceutical and food and beverage industries will offset this negative impact.

The animal-based enzymes segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The animal-based enzymes segment in the food enzymes market has witnessed significant growth due to several factors. One key driver is the rising demand for natural and clean-label ingredients in food products, as animal-based enzymes are perceived as more natural than their synthetic counterparts. Additionally, the increasing consumer awareness regarding the benefits of enzymes in food processing, such as improved texture, flavor, and nutritional value, has fueled the demand for animal-based enzymes. The expansion of the food industry, particularly in emerging economies, has also contributed to the increasing adoption of animal-based enzymes in various food applications.

The food segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The food enzymes market is experiencing significant growth, particularly in the food segment, driven by several factors. Rising consumer awareness about health and nutrition is prompting an increased demand for natural and clean-label food products, where enzymes play a crucial role in processing and enhancing nutritional profiles. Advancements in enzyme technology are enabling manufacturers to develop innovative food products with improved taste, texture, and shelf life. Additionally, the growing popularity of convenience foods and functional foods is driving the adoption of enzymes for various purposes, such as tenderization, flavor enhancement, and preservation.

Region with largest share:

In recent years, the North American food enzyme market has experienced substantial growth, driven by several key factors. One significant contributor is the increasing consumer demand for healthier food options, prompting manufacturers to incorporate enzymes for various purposes like improving nutritional profiles or reducing processing time. Additionally, advancements in enzyme technology have led to more efficient and cost-effective production processes, attracting businesses to adopt these solutions. Regulatory changes favoring the use of enzymes in food processing have also played a pivotal role in market expansion. Furthermore, heightened awareness regarding food sustainability and waste reduction has incentivized the utilization of enzymes to maximize resource utilization.

Region with highest CAGR:

The Asia-Pacific region has seen remarkable growth in the food enzyme market, attributed to several factors. Increasing consumer demand for processed and convenience foods, coupled with a rising awareness of health and wellness, had spurred the adoption of food enzymes in the region's food industry. Additionally, advancements in enzyme technology and manufacturing processes have made these ingredients more accessible and cost-effective for food producers. Regulatory support and favourable government policies further facilitate market expansion. Moreover, the region's burgeoning population and expanding middle class contribute to the surge in demand for enzymatic solutions to meet diverse culinary preferences.
