The sucrose esters market involves the sale of sucrose ester products, which are a distinct group of emulsifiers and low-fat alternatives utilized in various food products, including ice-cream, confectionery, and dairy items. Sucrose esters also serve multiple functions in food processing, such as protein protection, aeration, hydrophilic-lipophilic balance, and starch interaction. These esters exhibit good conditioning and stabilizing properties. Additionally, sucrose esters find applications in the production of personal care products, laundry items, and detergents.
The main types of sucrose esters include powder sucrose ester, liquid sucrose ester, and pellet sucrose ester. Powder sucrose esters are obtained through the esterification of sucrose and fatty acids, and they can appear as colorless, slightly yellow, soft solid, greyish-white powder, or thick gel depending on the type of fatty acid used and the grade of esterification. These esters serve various functions such as protein and starch interaction, antimicrobial properties, controlled sugar crystallization, emulsification, and aeration. Sucrose esters are utilized across diverse sectors, including food and beverages, detergents and cleansers, cosmetics, personal care, and others.

The sucrose esters market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $99.05 billion in 2024 to $107.79 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.8%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to food emulsification, cosmetics and personal care, increased demand for sustainable food ingredients, natural and clean label trends, beverage industry,.
The sucrose esters market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $157.61 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.0%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing use of sucrose esters in functional foods and nutraceuticals, global health and wellness, biodegradable surfactants, growing awareness of sucrose esters' benefits, pharmaceutical innovations. Major trends in the forecast period include improved texture and mouthfeel, microencapsulation techniques, biodegradable cleaning products, advancements in manufacturing technologies,.
The growing health awareness among consumers is driving the expansion of the sucrose esters market. Sucrose esters serve as a low-fat alternative in the food processing sector. As consumers become more health-conscious and meticulous about their food choices, there is a rising demand for low-fat, low-sugar options in baked goods, sweets, dairy products, and more. Due to their emulsification and fat-replacing properties, sucrose esters are increasingly utilized in the food and beverage industries to create healthier products. According to the 2022 Food and Health Survey published by the International Food Information Council, a US-based nonprofit educational organization, 52% of Americans reported following a diet or eating pattern in the previous year, a notable increase from the 39% recorded in 2021. This year, the most popular diets or eating habits include calorie tracking (13%), clean eating (16%), mindful eating (14%), and plant-based eating (12%). Consequently, the rising health awareness among consumers is expected to drive the growth of the sucrose esters market in the future.
The growing beverage industry is anticipated to drive the sucrose esters market in the future. The beverage industry comprises companies that produce and distribute various drinks consumed by people. Sucrose esters are utilized in beverages as emulsifiers to enhance texture and stabilize ingredients. For example, according to the 2023 Beverage Industry Trends report by BlueCart, a US-based platform provider, the U.S. beverage market is projected to be valued at $146 billion. With consistent growth, the industry is expected to experience an annual growth rate of 1.7% through 2027. Therefore, the expanding beverage industry is propelling the sucrose esters market.
Natural-based sucrose emulsifiers are a significant trend gaining traction in the sucrose esters market. Leading companies in the sucrose esters sector are facilitating the development of sustainable products for future applications in skincare and detergent products. For instance, in March 2022, Siltech Corporation, a Canada-based manufacturer and distributor of organo-functional silicone compounds and related specialties, developed Silube Sustain-S, a new silicone emulsifier engineered to mimic sugar (INCI: Gluconamido Lauryl Dimethicone (and) Isoamyl Laurate). Silube Sustain-S is designed for formulations that contain a high proportion of bio-based carbon. It is produced through a reaction of glucose with an aminoalkyl functional silicone and is made with RSPO mass balance-grade, vegetable-derived isoamyl laurate, which is 100% natural and fully biodegradable. It delivers the same performance benefits as existing specialty silicone emulsifiers.
Major companies in the sucrose ester market are ramping up production to satisfy the growing demand, especially from international markets. For example, in May 2023, Evonik, a Germany-based chemical company, introduced TEGO Cycle additives, a versatile range of specialty additives specifically designed for personal care and cosmetic products. These additives, which include sucrose esters among other components, perform essential functions such as emulsification, stabilization, and texture enhancement. They assist formulators in achieving desired product characteristics while improving overall performance. Renowned for their mildness and compatibility with various ingredients, TEGO Cycle additives help create high-quality products that meet consumer expectations for effectiveness and sensory appeal.
