The hectic lifestyles and limited time for food preparation have led to a rise in people's preference for fast food, consequently boosting the demand for oleoresin. Oleoresin serves as a crucial ingredient, providing flavoring agents and food colorants for fast food products. For example, in 2022, the UK fast food market witnessed a 9% growth, reaching US$22.45 billion (£20.61 billion) from US$20.6 billion (£18.9 billion) in 2021, as reported by Avika, a Netherlands-based potato processing company. This surge in fast food consumption is a key factor driving the growth of the oleoresin market.
The oleoresin market is also expected to benefit from the growing awareness about health and fitness. Increased consciousness about maintaining physical and mental well-being through healthy lifestyle choices, exercise, and nutrition is creating a favorable environment for oleoresins. This positions oleoresins as valuable components in products targeting the wellness-oriented consumer demographic. A survey report by Nutrisystem in January 2022 revealed that 53% of 2,000 participants aimed to lose weight in 2022, with an average target of 14 pounds. This heightened focus on health and fitness is a significant driver for the growth of the oleoresin market.
A prominent trend in the oleoresins market is the emphasis on product innovations by major companies. These companies are adopting new production techniques to manufacture oleoresins, ensuring sustainability and maintaining their competitive positions. For instance, in May 2022, Algalif and Divi's Nutraceuticals collaborated to develop highly concentrated beadlets of sustainable natural astaxanthin oleoresin from microalgae. This innovative oleoresin has applications in various products such as fortified drinks, nutrition bars, gummies, tablets, and Twizzlers, showcasing its versatility in the food and beverage industry.
Key players in the oleoresin market are concentrating on developing highly concentrated beadlets of sustainable natural astaxanthin to improve the stability, bioavailability, and potency of this antioxidant for applications in dietary supplements, animal feed, and cosmetics. Astaxanthin beadlets are small, spherical particles containing astaxanthin-a potent natural antioxidant-encapsulated within a protective matrix. These beadlets are produced by organically extracting astaxanthin oleoresin from microalgae, aimed at renewable energy production. For example, in May 2023, Divi's Laboratories Limited, an India-based manufacturer of active pharmaceutical ingredients, collaborated with Algalif Iceland ehf., an Iceland-based company, to develop concentrated beadlets of naturally occurring astaxanthin, recognized for its antioxidant properties. These beadlets employ advanced microencapsulation techniques that shield the astaxanthin from degradation, enhancing its stability during storage and use. They are specifically designed to offer a concentrated form of astaxanthin, facilitating easier integration into various products, including dietary supplements and functional foods.
