Food enzymes, distinctive proteins, function as catalysts in diverse biochemical reactions within food processing and digestion, enhancing texture, flavor, appearance, and nutritional value. They facilitate chemical transformations without depletion.
Carbohydrase, lipase, protease, and other enzymes constitute the primary types. Carbohydrase enzymes, for instance, break down carbohydrates into simpler sugars. Sourced from microorganisms, animals, and plants, these enzymes are accessible in various forms such as powder or liquid. Their utility spans bakery goods, beverages, dairy items, processed foods, confectioneries, and beyond.
The food enzymes market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides food enzymes market statistics, including food enzymes industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a food enzymes market share, detailed food enzymes market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the food enzymes industry. This food enzymes market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The food enzymes market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $2.40 billion in 2023 to $2.58 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.2%. In the historical period, growth was driven by heightened awareness of the health advantages linked with enzyme-enhanced products, the expansion of the global food and beverage sector, regulatory endorsements for enzyme utilization, innovations in enzyme production techniques, and an increased emphasis on sustainability and cost efficiency in food manufacturing.
The food enzymes market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.41 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.3%. The forecast period, growth is expected due to rising consumer demand for clean-label and plant-based goods, increased awareness of the health benefits of enzyme-rich diets, broader applications in functional foods, growing adoption of enzyme technology in food preservation and waste reduction initiatives, and ongoing biotechnological advancements enhancing enzyme production efficiency. Key trends anticipated in the forecast period include progress in enzyme engineering, a heightened focus on personalized nutrition solutions utilizing enzyme technology, the emergence of new enzyme formulations, the uptake of enzyme-based approaches for food waste reduction, and the integration of advanced biotechnological methods to enhance enzyme functionality.
The growing demand for processed food products is anticipated to drive the expansion of the food enzyme market in the future. Processed food products are those that have been mechanically, physically, or chemically altered from their original state to be made suitable for consumption. Factors such as a fast-paced lifestyle, advancements in food processing technology, urbanization, and higher disposable incomes are contributing to the increased demand for processed foods. Food enzymes act as catalysts, speeding up chemical reactions during food processing without being consumed in the process. For example, in October 2023, Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC) reported that in 2022, exports of processed food and beverage products hit a record high of $54.3 billion, a 14.1% rise from 2021. These exports accounted for 34.7% of the total production value. Consequently, the rising demand for processed food products is fueling the growth of the food enzyme market.
Leading players in the food enzyme industry prioritize the development of innovative solutions, such as lactase technology, to enhance the manufacturing process of lactose-free dairy items. Lactase technology involves the use of enzymes, particularly lactase, in food processing to facilitate the breakdown of lactose, a sugar present in milk and dairy products, into simpler sugars such as glucose and galactose. For instance, in May 2023, DSM-Firmenich, an American nutrition and health firm, introduced Maxilact Next, a highly efficient and pure lactase with notably accelerated speed, approximately 25% faster than its predecessor. This advancement results in a 25% reduction in hydrolysis time at equivalent dosages, empowering lactose-free dairy producers to enhance production efficiency, scale up capacity, and optimize resource utilization while maintaining the taste of lactose-free products. Maxilact Next complements the existing Maxilact lineup, which leverages over five decades of experience in lactose-free dairy production, offering a comprehensive range of high-purity solutions.
In November 2023, Biocatalysts Ltd., a UK-based biotech research firm, acquired WeissBioTech to bolster its presence in the enzyme market. WeissBioTech, headquartered in Germany, specializes in serving the food and beverage industries by offering a diverse array of enzymatic and non-enzymatic products tailored to enhance food processing.
