Growing health trends are seeing a large customer base form for natural-based products. Gum hydrocolloid is emerging as a popular plant-based ingredient. The product is used in several foods, such as bakery, dairy, confectionery, and processed meats. Thus, there is a strong demand for gum hydrocolloid.
However, the application of gum hydrocolloid is not limited to the food & beverages industry. Gum hydrocolloids are also being used in cosmetic products. Chemical cosmetic products are being rejected in favor of naturally-sourced products. Gum hydrocolloids are predicted to play a big part in cosmetic product manufacture. Similarly, gum hydrocolloids also find application in the pharmaceutical sector.
There are hindrances to the growth of the market, however. Gelling agents are regulated strictly by authorities and the pace of products getting approval is sometimes slow. Difficulties with the supply of raw materials, which can be seasonal, are a further challenge for the market.
