Invert sugar, composed of dextrose and levulose, boasts increased sweetness compared to sucrose, resists crystallization, and aids in retaining moisture. This widely utilized ingredient finds applications in both commercial confections and homemade sweets.
There are primarily two types of invert sugar such as fully inverted sugar and partially inverted sugar. Fully inverted sugar is a liquid sweetener derived from the complete hydrolysis of sucrose, resulting in a combination of glucose and fructose. It is available in organic and conventional varieties and serves various purposes, including sweetening, texture enhancement, preservation, and as an ingredient in beverages. Industries such as food, beverages, and pharmaceuticals commonly employ fully inverted sugar in their products.

This invert sugar market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.
The invert sugar market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $2.21 billion in 2023 to $2.34 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.7%. The growth observed in the historic period can be linked to significant factors such as the industrial revolution that led to advancements in sugar refining. There was a growing demand for better sweetening agents during this time, promoting the development of confectionery and bakery products. Additionally, sugar's role in food preservation and stability played a crucial part in its growth, further driven by customization tailored to specific food applications.
The invert sugar market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.84 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.0%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be linked to increasing health awareness among consumers, coupled with ongoing innovations in food technology. Regulatory support for healthier alternatives is expected to fuel this growth, along with the expanding beverage industry and advancements in manufacturing processes. Key trends expected in this period involve inventive applications of sweeteners, their integration into convenience foods, leveraging their functional properties in food preservation, personalized dietary solutions, and the emergence of new culinary trends and fusion foods.
The surge in demand for processed food and beverages is poised to drive the growth of the invert sugar market in the coming years. Processed food and beverages involve the transformation of raw agricultural commodities or semi-processed food items into a diverse array of semi-prepared or consumer-ready products. This trend is propelled by factors such as convenience, evolving lifestyles and dietary preferences, as well as considerations of cost and affordability. The increased adoption of processed foods and beverages fuels the demand for sweetening components such as inverted sugar, which is frequently used in these products to enhance flavor, texture, and shelf life. For instance, in 2022, the United States Department of Agriculture reported that the total value of processed food products exported from the U.S. reached $38 billion, marking a 10.96% increase from $34.24 billion in 2021. Consequently, the growing use of processed food and beverages is a key driver for the expansion of the invert sugar market.
The escalating application of invert sugar in the pharmaceutical industry is anticipated to contribute significantly to the market's growth. Pharmaceuticals encompass drugs or medicinal products utilized for diagnosing, treating, preventing, or alleviating the symptoms of diseases and medical conditions in humans. Invert sugar serves as a sweetening agent in pharmaceutical formulations, acting as a stabilizer in liquid pharmaceutical preparations, preventing crystallization, ensuring syrup stability, retaining moisture, enhancing texture, and serving as a carbohydrate source in parenteral nutrition solutions. In June 2023, the European Federation of Pharmaceutical Industries and Associations (EFPIA) reported that the total pharmaceutical production in Europe reached $384,200 million (€340,000 million) in 2022, reflecting an increase of approximately 4.95% from €366,267 million (€323,950 million) in 2021. Hence, the expanding application in pharmaceuticals emerges as a driving force for the invert sugar market's growth.
The invert sugar market is witnessing a significant trend of increasing investments, with major companies actively engaging in strategic investments to fortify their positions. An illustration of this trend is seen in the actions of Galam, an Israel-based specialty ingredients manufacturer, which invested $30 million in a new production plant for prebiotic Gofos-an inverted organic sugar-in January 2022. This substantial investment is geared towards enhancing production capabilities and solidifying Galam's presence in the market. Similarly, in June 2021, ASTARTA, a Ukraine-based agri-industrial holding company, took a noteworthy step by launching a pilot manufacturing facility for invert sugar syrup, thereby diversifying its product line. The success of this pilot project could potentially lead to increased production and expanded marketing capacities for invert syrup, aligning with ASTARTA's strategic objectives.
Major players in the invert sugar market are strategically focusing on advanced products, particularly those with a low glycemic index (GI), to drive revenue growth. Low glycemic index sugar refers to sugars that have a minimal impact on blood sugar levels upon consumption. This strategic focus is exemplified by EID Parry Ltd, an India-based company specializing in sugar manufacturing, which introduced Sweetcare in March 2021. Sweetcare is a low GI sugar enriched with seven organic herbal extracts known for their ability to mitigate the rapid increase in blood sugar levels. Designed as a healthy sugar substitute, Sweetcare aims to cater to consumer preferences for a balanced diet without compromising on taste or quality. The inclusion of natural herbal extracts such as amla, pomegranate, ginger, turmeric, fenugreek, black pepper, and cinnamon enhances the nutritional profile of the product, aligning with the growing demand for health-conscious alternatives in the market.
In May 2022, Sudzucker AG, a German-based functional ingredients manufacturer, successfully completed the acquisition of Meatless B.V. The strategic move aligns with Sudzucker's objective to expand its product portfolio and address the increasing market demand for plant-based products and ingredients. This acquisition allows Sudzucker to cater to the evolving preferences driven by a growing global population, heightened protein requirements, and the surging popularity of vegetarian and vegan dietary choices. Meatless B.V., a Netherlands-based company, specializes in the production of invert sugar.
