Rising Demand for Humectants in Food and Pharmaceuticals Driven by Shifting Consumer Lifestyles and Preferences

 

The size of the worldwide humectants market (Feuchthaltemittelmarkt) is anticipated to reach USD 24 Billion with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5% during the forecast period. Food manufacturers are able to create a greater variety of food products using fewer natural humectants as a result of the rise in demand for natural humectants in recent years.

Recently, humectants have gained popularity in the food and beverage industry because they prolong the shelf life of products, help to retain moisture, and enhance the effectiveness of products by increasing their function. Due to the increase in food and beverage production, cosmetics and technological advancements, and a change in lifestyle, the global humectants market remains in high demand.

It is anticipated that the market for humectants will continue to grow in coming years as the demand for food & beverage, personal care, and cosmetic products is expected to increase in developed countries such as Europe and North America. As food humectants are helpful to keep the moisture of products, they are a major focus of interest in ready-to-eat meals and snacks. As disposable incomes rise along with a change in lifestyle, Asia Pacific is predicted to be the fastest growing market for cosmetics, which will ultimately drive growth in the humectants industry.
