Yeast Beta-glucan Market Size

Yeast Beta-glucan Market size valued at USD 165 million in 2022 and is anticipated to expand at 9.5% CAGR from 2023 to 2032, driven by rising meat consumption globally.
 

Yeast Beta-glucan Market

To understand key trends  

Global meat consumption per person is expected to rise 0.3% annually to 35.4 kg in retail weight equivalent by 2030, according to the OECD-FAO agriculture outlook, resulting from rapid urbanization. Beta glucans have emerged as an important animal feed ingredient for animal nutrition resulting from the rising interest in functional foods and the new laws that forbid the use of antibiotics that promote growth, resulting in rising product demand as an additive in animal feed products, which is a major factor supporting the market growth.
 

High extraction costs associated with production processes to impede industry expansion

The extraction of yeast beta glucan from spent brewer's yeast and baker's yeast is not an expensive method but recovering the product from the produced extract is costly, which may hamper product adoption. However, various technologies for the manufacturing and purification of yeast-glucan have been developed, and new techniques are constantly being studied. Strong investments in R&D to develop cost-effective extraction methods are also expected to help manufacturers overcome this restraint in the coming years.

Global Yeast Beta Glucan Market Size, By Form

To understand key trends  

The yeast beta-glucan market size from soluble segment is slated to record over 9% CAGR through 2032. Changing lifestyles and the rising popularity of premium beers internationally are boosting the use of soluble yeast for fermentation in beer production. For instance, in 2021, the EU Member States produced 33.1 billion liters of alcoholic beer and around 1.7 billion liters of beer with less than 0.5% alcohol and no alcohol.
 

Asia Pacific yeast beta glucan industry revenue is likely to reach USD 80 million by 2032, owing to the rising food and meat consumption in densely populated areas. Furthermore, growing awareness of the product’s health benefits has encouraged its use for a variety of therapeutic purposes in key nations, such as Japan, China, and India, thereby driving regional revenue. For instance, a clinical study published in BMJ Neurology Open in March 2022 found that children with autism spectrum disorder showed improved behavior and learning ability after consuming yeast beta glucan.
 

By purity, the 70% yeast beta-glucan market is projected to surpass USD 138.5 million in revenue by 2032, due to its widespread use in the production of high-quality organic cosmetic ingredients. Additionally, customers are increasingly opting for higher-quality ingredients, particularly in Middle Eastern nations such as the UAE, which is emerging as a key revenue hub for the cosmetics business. Moreover, the expanding population and the booming tourism sector are also slated to drive the market revenue.

Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic

Several studies discovered that beta glucan has a significant immunomodulatory impact, which enhances the cellular pattern engaged in the infectious process and decreases the cytokines involved in the inflammatory course obtained from COVID-19. As a result, beta glucans were found to be effective as immune adjuvants to boost immune response. Subsequently, the increasing use of yeast beta glucan by the pharmaceutical sector has positively influenced business growth during the pandemic.
