U.S. prebiotics market size, by application, 2020 - 2030 (USD Million)

The growing occurrence of gastrointestinal tract diseases, such as constipation, Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GRD), and inflammatory bowel disease, have raised concerns regarding gut health, thereby projected to support the growth of the market over the estimated period. In addition, the rising cultivation and harvesting of prebiotic natural herbs are further projected to drive the market. The rising investment in research & development (R&D) by companies to develop new ingredients coupled with the growing acceptance among consumers to pay a premium price for food products that contain prebiotic ingredients has enabled manufacturers to drive the active health management programs.

This, in turn,will drive the market growth over the forecast period. Prebiotics have a wide variety of applications including texture enhancement and sweetening agents in the food and beverages industry. The growing concerns with respect to sugar diseases are expected to drive the product growth over the forecast period. In addition, the major prebiotic ingredients, such as inulin and Fructo-Oligosaccharide (FOS) have demand from products that require low-calorie sweetening taste, thus propelling the overall prebiotic sector growth over the forecast period.

Ingredients Insights

On the basis of ingredients, the global market has been further categorized into FOS, Inulin, Galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS), Mannan-oligosaccharide (MOS), and others (Oligosaccharides, chicory fructans, HMO, XOS). The inulin ingredients segment dominated the global market in 2021 and accounted for the maximum share of more than 37.00% of the overall revenue. The rising demand for inulin in drinks and baked goods is expected to play a major role in driving the segment growth over the forecast period. Global product demand for GOS is estimated to grow at a significant CAGR from 2022 to 2030.

The rising demand in the manufacturing of synbiotics and growing applications in infant foods are expected to propel the demand over the next eight years. The growing application of FOSin dietary fibers and its ability to prevent gastrointestinal diseases is expected to boost the market demand over the forecast period. Moreover, increased use of FOS in the treatment of bacterial infections in long-term care facilities and hospital wards will drive the segment growth. The demand for MOS ingredients is also rising due to the growing demand for prebiotics in animal feeds. However, the shortage of MOS ingredients and the increased cost of raw materials are expected to restrain the segment growth.

Application Insights

On the basis of applications, the global market has been further segmented into food & beverages, dietary supplements, and animal feed. The food & beverage application segment dominated the market in 2021 and accounted for the largest share of more than 82.00% of the global volume. The global prebiotic demand for animal feed was also high in 2021 and will increase further due to the growing importance of animal proteins and fortification of animal feed with bacteria that improve the gut health of animals. The dietary supplements segment is estimated to register the fastest CAGR, in terms of volume, during the forecast period.

The rising consumer awareness about the consumption of protein for sustaining ideal nutritional levels and retaining muscle mass is expected to boost the market demand for these products. Moreover, rising awareness concerning protein benefits and maintaining an active & healthy lifestyleis expected to play a crucial role in promoting the usage of dietary supplement products. The aging population and the growing concerns regarding gut health are the major driving forces boosting the product demand in various applications. The rising consumer spending on products that improve the health of the intestines is expected to boost the demand over the forecast period.

Key Companies & Market Share Insights

The market is fragmented with a large number of companies involved in the extraction and processing of prebiotics from raw materials. Companies are focusing on setting up R&D facilities with a technological rise in extracting and refining the raw materials coupled with the adoption of new food manufacturing technologies. The companies are increasing strategic expansions, mergers & acquisitions, and new product development activities. For instance, in March 2020, BENEO announced a major expansion for its chicory root manufacturing facility in Chile by 2022, which is being funded by an investment of over EUR 50 million.

This expansion is owing to the growing demand for BENEO’s inulin, oligofructose, and chicory root fibers, as consumer interest in digestive health continues to grow. In October 2019, Ashland signed an agreement with Clasado Biosciences, a company that develops advanced GOS products for unique prebiotics, and provides solutions for pharmaceuticals and food & beverage worldwide.
