Functional Proteins Market to Showcase Continued Growth in the Coming Years

The functional proteins market was valued at USD 4.17 billion in 2017 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.6% to reach a value of 5.73 billion by 2022. The increasing pet population and pet adoption trends to improve the palatability of pet food are some of the key trends influencing the growth of the functional proteins market.



Based on type, the market has been segmented into hydrolysates, whey protein concentrates, whey protein isolates, casein & caseinates, soy protein, and others. The whey protein concentrates segment dominated the market in 2017. Whey protein is one of the major ingredients used for manufacturing several milk-based products and is used by many food & beverage manufacturers as a protein source for product innovation. They are commonly used as a source of protein in functional food & beverages, owing to their easy availability or ease of production and less cost, as compared to hydrolysates and isolates.


In terms of application, the dietary supplements segment, the market has been segmented into functional foods, functional beverages, dietary supplements and animal nutrition Dietary supplements come in the form of capsules, liquids, powders, or tablets and are consumed to make up for the deficiencies of certain nutrient components in diets. In dietary supplements, one of the upcoming trends is the intake of nutritional supplements such as protein powder; which promotes muscle gain, fat loss, and also provides nutritional benefits. There is a growing consumption of different types of functional dietary protein supplements among consumers of all ages.

Based on source, the animal segment accounted for the largest share of the global functional proteins market in 2017. The demand for animal protein is driven by its better nutritional and flavor profile compared to plant-derived proteins. Further, the increasing use of animal protein in end-use applications, such as sports nutrition and the limited availability of substitutes for egg and gelatin in various food products—which, in turn, is influenced by lifestyles and demographic shifts—are the key market drivers.

In 2017, North America is estimated to hold a significant share of the global functional proteins market. The increase in the demand for functional proteins by the food processing industry is one of the major drivers for the functional proteins market in the region. In the U.S., the presence of major end-user companies has created a significant demand for functional proteins in the region. The Asia-Pacific region is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period.

OPPORTUNITY: The growing potential of dairy and plant proteins

There is a huge potential for the growing protein ingredients market in the near future, especially dairy and plant proteins. Dairy protein suppliers can continue to benefit from the trend towards more functional products, and the increased consumer interest in the nutritional value of products. Dairy proteins are known to possess a wide range of functional properties, including thickening & emulsification, gelling, foaming, heat stabilization, and flavor/color development. Their high nutritional quality and versatile, functional properties enable their usage in dairy desserts, nutritional beverages, ice cream, yogurt, spreads, confectionery, and baked goods.

CHALLENGE: Demand-based price fluctuations in cropping pattern

Even though the prices of soy proteins are comparatively lower than most of the proteins, the supply can prove to be a significant factor in price escalation. The raw material for soy protein ingredients is soy meal, which is also highly demanded by the feed industry. Unless there is no drop in the cultivation area under soybeans, the supply is expected to remain unfazed for both feed and protein manufacturers.

Oryzenin Market: Growth Opportunities and Recent Developments

 The report Oryzenin Market by Type (Isolates, Concentrates), Application (Bakery & Confectionery, Meat Analogs & Extenders, Sports & Energy Nutrition, Dairy Alternatives, Beverages), Form (Dry, Liquid), and Region – Global Forecast to 2022″, is estimated at USD 88.2 Million in 2016 and is projected to reach USD 198.2 Million by 2022, at a CAGR of 14.5% during the forecast period. The market is driven by factors such as the increasing demand for rice protein due to its functional properties, growth in consumption of plant protein, cost-effectiveness of plant protein as compared to animal protein, and the increasing awareness among consumers towards the importance of protein.



On the basis of application, the oryzenin market was led by sports & energy nutrition, followed by beverages, in 2015. Sports & energy nutrition was the leading segment, owing to the increase in the consumption of sports & energy drinks due to the trend of healthy living among consumers. The application of oryzenin in sports & energy nutrition is attributed to its high amino acid profile and branched chain amino acids (BCAAs), which are essential for athletes and bodybuilders for muscle recovery. Oryzenin increased lean body mass skeletal muscle hypertrophy, power, and strength similar to whey protein. This segment has potential for growth in the near future, with increasing application of oryzenin as a nutrition enhancer in food products.


On the basis of form, the dry segment accounted for a larger market share in 2015. The dry form dominated the oryzenin market as it is easy to handle and can be transported easily with lower expenses, which has increased the demand for dry oryzenin powder. In addition, the liquid form needs further processing to be extracted from the dry form, thus increasing the investment.

The rapid growth of economies in Europe has led to the increase in demand for protein. This factor has resulted in the growth of low-cost protein sources such as vegetable proteins that can be used as substitutes for other protein ingredients. European consumers are emphasizing more on healthier lifestyles; hence, protein product manufacturers need to focus on reducing consumer fears concerning its allergies and safety issues. Gluten is found to cause allergies and it has been estimated that up to 90% of protein in wheat is gluten. Amongst northern European consumers, 30% carry genes for gluten intolerance. This creates tremendous opportunity for other sources of proteins which are free from gluten such as rice protein.

The fruit segment is projected to grow at the highest rate during the forecast period.

The fruit segment, by crop type, is projected to grow at the highest CAGR, in terms of value, during the forecast period. Fruits are highly perishable in nature and are required to be treated with post-harvest solutions to increase their shelf life for longer storage duration and easy transport of these products. Increasing application of natural flavors in the food and beverages industry is also encouraging the trade of fruits, which in turn, has led to a surge in demand for post-harvest treatment solutions in the major fruits and vegetable producing region such as Asia Pacific.

By type, the coatings segment is estimated to account for the largest share in 2019 in the post-harvest treatment market.

Coatings are one of the methods to increase the shelf life of products and decrease the quality and quantity losses. They are mostly applied to fruits & vegetables during the packaging process for maintaining their softness, color, odor, and flavor. The development of edible coatings has made it easier for fruits and vegetable processors to use the produce without any concerns about their harmful effects. Edible coatings help to prevent unnecessary softening and ripening of fruits & vegetables. Coatings form an integral part of the post-harvest treatment process, as fruits & vegetables are stored for longer periods, thereby making it important to maintain their shelf life and quality.

The Asia Pacific region is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period.

The Asia Pacific region is projected to grow at the highest CAGR in the post-harvest treatment market during the forecast period due to the increasing demand for exotic fruits and vegetables from the developed regions.
