Inulinase Market Overview
Inulinase is an important enzyme for the food industry, and due to high usage of inulinase for various industrial production has driven the market growth. It is an industrial enzyme used for the production of lactic acid, citric acid, ultra-high fructose syrup, biofuels, and single-cell oil. Inulinase is produced from sources like yeast, bacteria, fungi, actinomycetes, and molds. With time inulinase has replaced starch heavily in industries, inulin and materials containing inulin traces are sustainable and economical polymeric carbohydrates that can be easily hydrolyzed to form fructose, glucose, and inulooligosaccharides.
Plants like dandelion, dahlia, garlic, coffee, chicory, agave, and asparagus are the richest source of inulin. Inulinase is a member of the glycoside hydrolase family and a valuable additive in the food industry it provides a sweet taste to the food and is safe as compared to sucrose due to its sweetening capacity, low-calorie content, and safe for diabetic patients.
Inulinase Market Dynamics
High prevalence of health problems in people mostly geriatric population and elevated consumer awareness about consumption of Inulinase impacted positively on markets growth. Fast-paced urbanization and increased health problems like High BP, obesity, type 1 & 2 diabetes, high cholesterol, and blood sugar level especially among old age people due to which the market of inulinase has grown. Modernized and technological development for the production of inulinase enzymes in developed nations led to the increased demand for more calorie-controlled, natural, and healthy substitutes of sweeteners. Moreover, high per capita income, changed lifestyle with adequate availability of Inulinase has driven the growth of the market.
A rise in the investments made by the key market players for innovation & development for increased production of inulinase from various sources, through advanced methods for the production of inulinase had a positive impact on the growth of the inulinase market. Inulinase is also used for the production of bioethanol. Bioethanol is produced by fermenting sugar and component of the plant containing starch and is used as an additive in fuels. Moreover, its high usage for the production of HFS (High Fructose Syrup) to fulfill the demand of the food industry as sweetener replacement pushed market growth.
However, certain risks related to the use and consumption of inulinase such as abdominal pain, cramps, and other factors like high cost related to the production of by-products of inulinase enzymes have hampered the market growth. Despite Inulinase being in low calories still contains sugar which can lead to health issues like cardiac arrest, diabetes, obesity, and others restrained growth of the market.
Inulinase Market Segment Analysis
Based on product type inulinase market is segmented into microbial inulinase and plant inulinase. The segment of microbial inulinase dominated the market in recent years. Microbial inulinase is an important part of industrial enzymes due to its ability to hydrolyse inulin into fructose and fructooligosaccharides. Both of these products have high usage in the pharmaceutical and food industry. Inulinase is also found in plants and animals but is in less quantity due to which microorganisms are being considered as a rich source of inulinase. Which are categorized based on their patterns as exoinulinases and endoinulinases. Exoinulinases produce fructose after hydrolysing inulin linkage and endoinulinases produce fructooligosaccharides after acting randomly on linkages of glycosidic inulin.
By application, the segment of high fructose syrup held the largest market share in recent years due to the high demand for fructose syrup in the food and beverage industry as a sweetener and a food additive, it used for preparing food in bulk. Growing health consciousness among people is the major reason for the segment growth and is available in different sizes and volumes in the market. Fructose syrup’s usage is also high in pharmaceuticals and neutraceutical industries because of its nutrition providing benefit and is a rich source of carbohydrates. Moreover, the segment of bioethanol has also witnessed growth as it is used as an additive in fuel and is high in demand due to the high usage of vehicles.
Regional Insights:
North America and Europe dominated the inulinase market due to an increase in the consumption of Inulinase by the young and geriatric population due to its less calorie content and an ideal food sweetener. The prevalence of chronic health problems such as high cholesterol, blood sugar, cardiovascular problems, obesity, and others majorly because of unsettled lifestyle and undisciplined eating patterns boosted the inulinase market growth in North America. The European market is considered to yield the fastest market growth because of increased demand for inulinase because of increased usage in neutraceutical as an additive and the presence of key market players.
Asia-Pacific accounted for the fastest-growing region for the inulinase market. Increased per capita income of people combined with the use of low calorie and hygienic food additives in developing nations such as India, Japan, Australia impacted positively on market growth. Furthermore increased investment in research & development by region key player for fermentation and hydrolyzation of inulinase combined with rising health issues like blood sugar and blood pressure, obesity, cardiovascular problems and others in these nations augmented to push the market growth in India and Japan. Inulinase is an inexpensive substitute for sucrose which have several health benefits for the geriatric population which played a key part in the market growth of the region.
South America and the Middle East and Africa are witnessing growth as well primarily due to urbanization, globalization and knowledge of food additives in the region. Increased consumer choice for consuming calorie controlled but sweet beverage combined with industrial development and preference for more organic products over synthesized chemicals impacted positively on the market growth of South America. Moreover, the shift of key players in the Middle East nations due to tap undiscovered market is anticipated to generate more revenue in the region.
