Market Overview
Food enzymes are protein molecules that can be found in both humans and animals. They drive all-natural and biological activities in the human and animal bodies. Enzymes are necessary components of every chemical reaction in the body, therefore life cannot exist without them. They are intentionally added to processed foods to fulfill a technological function in food manufacturing, preparation, and treatment. The multifunctional benefits of enzymes in a wide range of applications are projected to fuel market expansion in the forecast period. In addition, advances in molecular biology, genetics, and microbial diversity will drive demand for food enzymes in the coming years. With the increased consumption of processed and packaged foods, the demand for food preservatives is predicted to rise, driving the use of enzymes in the approaching years.
Food enzymes operate as a catalyst for biological events that improve the quality of various processed food items, consequently promoting their use in a wide range of applications. The penetration of organized retail sectors in urban and rural areas has increased the need for bakery and confectionery items, consequently promoting the growth of the food enzymes market. Moreover, a rising product range in the bakery and processed food sectors will open the door to new prospects, increasing the chances for food enzyme manufacturers to capitalize on these opportunities.
COVID-19 Impact:
COVID-19 is expected to have a significant impact on food enzymes, as the current pandemic has highlighted the importance of safe, healthy, and nutritious eating. Due to its use in nutritional and immune products, the COVID-19 crisis should have a positive impact on the market for food enzymes. While ingredient sales increase across the globe, major players in the food enzymes industry have begun to establish regional production. Supply chains for the distribution of raw materials are also being optimized by R&D and sales departments. However, food ingredient companies are facing significant challenges in meeting the increased demand for food enzymes, including changing tastes and preferences, as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak.
During the pandemic, a sudden and unexpected increase in demand for functional foods left manufacturers, suppliers, and retailers scrambling to ensure a steady supply of raw materials. The market faced challenges due to supply chain disruptions across countries during the COVID-19 lockdown. Throughout the forecast period, the impact of COVID-19 on the food enzyme supply chain and the availability of raw materials will pose a challenge to the food enzymes market. Changes in food enzyme safety regulations will pose a significant challenge to the market's growth.
Driver
- Demand for processed foods is increasing.
Processed food demand is increasing globally, owing largely to the Asian continent's growing economies. The major drivers of the processed food market's substantial growth are China and India. The middle-class population is growing, and rising disposable incomes, combined with a hectic lifestyle, are contributing to this market's expansion. End-product freshness is increased by using food enzymes, which extends the shelf life of convenience foods while also preserving their flavour, colour, and texture.
Restraint
- Temperature and pH operating ranges are limited.
The surrounding environmental conditions have a significant impact on the action of food enzymes. The reaction rate drops dramatically as the temperature drops, and thermal agitation denatures the food enzyme (degrades the structure of the food enzyme), rendering it non-functional. Varying the pH outside the food enzyme's operational range reduces enzyme activity and can eventually lead to permanent denaturation. Food enzyme manufacturers are working to develop enzymes that can function at a wide range of temperatures and pH levels; however, if enzymes are to be used in all food and beverage manufacturing processes, there is still a long way to go.
Opportunities
- Platforms for technological innovation
Many small-scale manufacturers compete with the market leaders in terms of the application specificity of the food enzymes produced in the global food enzymes market. This, in turn, is dependent on the quality of the manufacturing strain developed by manufacturers. Various technology licensors enable small-scale manufacturers to produce programmable enzymes that can be scaled up to produce large quantities. One such licensor is Dyadic International Inc. (US), which licenses its C1 platform technology to smaller companies so they can produce large quantities of high-mobility food enzymes on-site.
Challenges
- Changes in food enzyme safety regulations
The rise of food enzymes as processing ingredients in the food industry has resulted in the regulatory framework for their safety continuing to evolve and improve. Since enzymes are naturally present in food ingredients, their safety and toxicity were not previously a major concern. However, the introduction of large-scale food enzyme production using genetically modified microorganisms has increased scrutiny of enzymes used in the food and beverage industry. Enzymes are divided into two categories in terms of food legislation: food additives and food processing aids. Food enzyme classification is critical because pre-market approval, which includes a safety evaluation, is only required for additives in some countries. Furthermore, the definitions of additives and processing aids differ by country and region, resulting in regulatory uncertainty that impedes the market growth.
Segmentation Analysis
The Food Enzymes Market is segregated based on Type, Source, Application, and Form.
By Type, the market is classified into Carbohydrase, Amylase, Cellulose, Lactase, Pectinase, Other carbohydrates, Proteases, Lipases, Polymerase & nuclease, and Other types. During the forecast period, the carbohydrates segment is expected to dominate the market. The vast application of carbohydrates in the food industry is driving the growth of the segment. Carbohydrases are used in a variety of food applications, including bakery and confectionery, dairy, and processed foods. They have added value to a variety of food applications due to their cost-effectiveness, reduced time and space requirements, and ease of process modification and optimization.
By Source, the market is classified into Microorganisms, Plant, and Animals. Microbial Enzymes to Hold the Largest Market during the forecast period because microbial enzymes are more cost-effective and stable than plant and animal enzymes. Various fermentation techniques, such as solid-state and submerged fermentation, can be used to effectively produce microbial enzymes. Microbial enzymes are easier to produce in large quantities than plant and animal enzymes. They can also be easily modified to increase their specificity using a variety of molecular and biochemical approaches. These favorable characteristics will help microbial-source food enzymes maintain their dominance over the forecast period.
By Application, the market is classified into Food, Meat Products, Bakery & confectionery products, Dairy products, Nutraceuticals, Other food products, Beverages, Juices, Brewing, and Other Beverages. During the forecast period, the food segment is expected to hold the largest share of the market. Due to the sheer growing use of enzymes in the food and beverage industry, there is a significant increase in demand for food enzymes. Meat processing, dairy products, bakery products, nutraceuticals, and other food products are among the food and beverage applications considered in this study (such as processed fruits & vegetables, processed food, and vegetable oil processing). Peptides and amino acids are produced by enzymatic hydrolysis of yeast and vegetable proteins, which are used as flavor enhancers in soups, sauces, ready-to-eat meals, canned, and frozen foods. Enzymes in the food industry are in high demand as a result of these factors.
