Glycinates Market Key Takeaways
Market Size & Growth
Key Market Drivers
Challenges
Surging consumption of dietary supplements, particularly across developed countries such as the U.S. and Canada is expected to spur the glycinates market demand. In recent years, the prevalence of mineral deficiencies has increased substantially due to the adoption of fast-paced lifestyles, excessive consumption of low-nutrition junk foods, and alcohol consumption. For instance, according to recent research, the increasing incidences of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) showcase high susceptibility to zinc deficiency. Nearly 50% of newly diagnosed celiac disease cases are prone to zinc deficiency caused by mucosal inflammation and zinc malabsorption, emphasizing the need for supplements, such as zinc glycinates.
Additionally, the growing consumption of meat and meat products and the deployment of very strict food safety regulations pertaining to meat quality will positively affect the industry outlook. According to the Food & Agriculture Organization (FAO), global meat production is set to exceed 360 million tons in 2022, owing to increasing meat output estimated across China, Australia, Brazil, and Vietnam.
Glycinates Market Trends
The dearth of awareness regarding the benefits of consuming health supplements, and fortified food and beverages in developing and underdeveloped nations could restrain the glycinates market expansion. Moreover, several countries lack a robust healthcare infrastructure, compromising access to fortified and value-added food products. The populace across these economies is also facing affordability challenges, thus restricting the sales of dietary supplements. However, the rising number of initiatives aimed at boosting awareness and spreading information about the importance of nutrition and health will help overcome the current industry limitations.
Glycinates Market Analysis
The glycinates market size from calcium glycinate segment is projected to expand at 7.5% CAGR through 2032. Calcium glycinate monohydrate is gaining significant momentum as it is increasingly used in the treatment of calcium deficiencies that can lead to osteoporosis. The rising prevalence of bone degenerative disorders and musculoskeletal diseases is also expected to accelerate the consumption of calcium glycinate products. For instance, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), musculoskeletal conditions affect more than 1.7 billion people worldwide and are a leading cause of disability. Additionally, calcium glycinate is emerging as a popular treatment for regulating blood pressure, muscle contractions, and patients with celiac disease.
Asia Pacific glycinates market share is predicted to reach USD 450 million by 2032, owing to increasing applications in the personal care sector. The rising disposable incomes and the growing consumer inclination toward premium beauty and cosmetic products will accelerate the demand for superior formulations and personal care portfolios, thus offering lucrative scope for personal care manufacturers. Moreover, the increasing demand for animal products and animal-derived ingredients across countries such as China, Japan, and Australia will further propel the production of glycinates. According to the USDA, China is the largest consumer of meat in the world, with an estimated consumption of more than 10 million tonnes of beef & veal, and 53 million tonnes of pork in 2022.
In terms of revenue, the glycinates market analysis from the animal feed application segment is set to surpass USD 600 million by 2032, attributed to growing consumption of meat products is fuelling the demand for high-quality animal feed products. Glycinates are extensively used in animal feed as chelating compounds to bind minerals, such as zinc, and iron for better absorption. For instance, sodium glycinate is widely employed as a growth-promoting agent to improve the digestibility of feed. Moreover, the rising concerns associated with the environmental impacts of meat production is proliferating the demand for glycinates to reduce mineral excretion.
The glycinates market size from the liquid form segment is slated to exhibit over 6.5% CAGR during the forecast timeline. Liquid glycinate is commonly used as a food additive in manufacturing processed food products, and dietary supplements. It is also utilised to formulate some medications and personal care products. The rising production of processed foods, notably across developed and developing regions is propelling the use of liquid glycinate as a flavor enhancer in certain foods and beverages. Furthermore, the glycinate industry is experiencing a significant surge in demand for liquid fertilizers from the agriculture sector. For instance, liquid zinc glycinate fertilizers are increasingly used to improve plant metabolism and enhance bud formation in fruit crops and tillering in cereals.
Glycinates Market Share
Some leading companies in the glycinates market include
These companies are implementing new strategies including collaborations and partnerships to boost production and cater to a larger customer base. For instance, BASF announced the expansion of its feed enzymes development and distribution agreement with Cargill to better address the demand from animal protein producers in the U.S.
Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic
The COVID-19 outbreak had a moderate impact on the glycinates market as several countries worldwide reported a dramatic surge in hospitalization rates and a massive patient pool. The growing concerns associated with the virus transmission and infection increased consumer interest in preventative care and dietary supplements to strengthen immunity. For instance, according to the Nutrition Business Journal, the sales of dietary supplements intended for immunity escalated from more than USD 3 billion in 2019, to USD 6 billion by the end of 2020. Additionally, the pandemic spurred e-commerce sales dramatically due to lockdown restrictions and social distancing norms imposed by numerous countries to curb virus transmission.
