Growing demand for the product as a functional ingredient in various application segments, such as bakery & confectionery, oral care, and pharmaceuticals, is projected to drive the market over the forecast period. Shifting consumer preference for low-calorie foods coupled with growing concerns regarding health issues, such as diabetes, obesity, and heart diseases are anticipated to spur the industry growth.
Rising demand for low-calorie sweeteners in carbonated beverages and processed foods is projected to further augment the market growth. Polyol sweeteners are widely used in the pharmaceutical sector as excipients to manufacture pharmaceutical products and to treat health issues related to the brain, kidney, and heart. Furthermore, polyols, such as mannitol and sorbitol, are utilized as humectants and bulking agents for tableting applications.
The demand for polyol sweeteners in Europe is projected to witness a high growth on account of the rising consumption of processed foods, such as baked goods, desserts, and yogurt, in Germany, U.K., The Netherlands, and Spain. Moreover, the growing penetration of the organic oral care products market in the region as a result of the rising importance of herbal ingredients is anticipated to expand the application scope for polyol sweeteners.
