Microcrystalline Cellulose Market - Global Market Share, Trends, Analysis and Forecasts, 2023-2032
The Global Microcrystalline Cellulose Market size was estimated to be US$ 900 million in 2019 and the expected CAGR through 2030 is 6.3%.
Expanding food & beverage processing industry, strong demand from pharmaceutical and cosmetics product manufacturing, and increasing investment in developing integrated cellulose manufacturing process are the prime forces influencing the growth of the global microcrystalline cellulose market. Microcrystalline cellulose is a partially depolymerized cellulose prepared by treating alpha-cellulose, derived from pulp of fibrous plants, with mineral acids.
The monocrystalline cellulose extends starches, controls ice crystal formation and stabilizes foams. It is widely used across food processing and pharmaceutical industries in ice cream, meringue, confections, whipped toppings and as a binder in cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. With the expansion of pharmaceutical industry across the globe to cater the increased demand for advanced drugs and improved formulations, the demand for microcrystalline cellulose has increased significantly during past decade.
However, high cost associated with manufacturing of microcrystalline cellulose, and increasing processes complexities is anticipated to hinder the growth of microcrystalline cellulose market. Another factor fueling the growth of microcrystalline cellulose market is expanding food & beverage industry owing to strong demand for packaged and processed food globally. Microcrystalline cellulose helps in keeping the packaged food products fresh by means of bulking, texturizing and anti-caking, thus is expected to witness prominent demand throughout the forecast period. The global microcrystalline cellulose market is expected to grow steadily during the forecast period.
Europe held the largest share of the global microcrystalline cellulose market in 2019 owing to strong demand from pharmaceutical industry. The demand for advanced drugs has increased significantly in the European countries due to expanding geriatric population and prevalence of infectious diseases, thereby fueling the demand for microcrystalline cellulose.
Asia Pacific contributed a prominent share to the global microcrystalline cellulose market in 2019 and is anticipated to be the most lucrative segment during the forecast period. Increasing investment in expansion of pharmaceutical and food & beverage industry across major countries in Asia Pacific is anticipated to fuel the growth of Asia Pacific microcrystalline cellulose market in coming years.
