Key Trends in the Market

Thickeners, also known as thickening agents, are food additives which increase the viscosity of a food item without changing its taste, colour, or other properties. Vegetable gums are a type of thickening agent which are sourced from natural origins. Both thickeners and vegetable gums help in boosting the food product stability, increasing shelf life. 

 

  • The thriving food and beverage sector across the emerging economies, supported by rapid urbanisation, growing population, and increasing disposable income, is driving the global thickeners and vegetable gums market.
  • The rising demand for clean labelled dairy, bakery, confectionery, and convenience foods, is further generating the product’s demand. Meanwhile, condiments such as sauces and dressing are integral to restaurants, hotels, and pubs, which are further escalating the applications of thickeners and vegetable gums.
  • Growing expansion of the e-commerce sector is another crucial driving factor of the thickeners and vegetable gums market. Premium packaged food ready-to-cook food products are witnessing a great sale on online platforms which in turn are generating the demand for thickeners and vegetable gums.

The increasing demand for protein-based food thickening agents, owing to their ability to enhance the food texture, is driving the segment’s growth. In addition, protein in thickeners and vegetable gums bolsters the amino-acid content in the food, while adding nutritional value. The increasing application of protein-based thickening agents in creams, soups, and sauces, among other foods and condiments, is boosting the growth of this segment. With the growing consumer preference for additional protein in diets, protein types of thickeners and vegetable gums are likely to increase in demand in the coming years.

Based on application, the bakery and confectionary segment accounts for a significant share in the thickeners and vegetable gums market. Bakery and confectionery products use thickening agents and gums to attain stability and enhanced texture for easier packaging. Hence, the increasing demand for premium packaged bakery and confectionery products such as biscuits, cakes, doughnuts, and cookies, among others, is propelling the segment’s growth. 

 

Meanwhile, the dairy products segment is expected to witness a healthy growth in the forecast period. This can be attributed to the increasing application of polysaccharides, such as xanthan, locust bean gum, and tragacanth, in a variety of dairy products.
