Description

The global sweetener market was estimated to be US$ 82.04 Billion in 2022 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 2.9% between 2023 to 2032.

A sweetener is a substance that is added to food or drink to make it taste sweet. Sweeteners can be natural, such as sugar, honey, or maple syrup, or they can be artificial, such as aspartame, saccharin, or sucralose. Sweeteners are commonly used in the production of a wide variety of food and beverage products, including soft drinks, candy, baked goods, and dairy products.

They are used to enhance the sweetness of a product while often reducing the caloric content as compared to sugar. These are also being used as a sugar substitute in diets to reduce their overall sugar intake.

Sweetener Market Drivers

Increasing use of sweeteners in personal care products is driving the market growth

The global sweeteners market is being driven by a number of factors, including increasing demand for low-calorie and sugar-free products, expansion of the food and beverage industry, and growing use of sweeteners in pharmaceuticals and personal care products.

Consumers are becoming more health-conscious and are looking for ways to reduce their sugar intake without sacrificing taste, creating a growing demand for sweeteners. At the same time, the food and beverage industry is expanding rapidly, creating new opportunities for sweetener manufacturers.

In addition, lifestyle diseases such as diabetes and obesity are becoming increasingly prevalent around the world, particularly in developed countries. This has led to a greater focus on reducing sugar intake, which in turn has driven demand for sweeteners as a sugar substitute. Overall, these factors are expected to continue driving growth in the global sweeteners market in the coming years, creating new opportunities for companies that manufacture and distribute sweeteners.

Type Segmentation of Global Sweetener Market

High-intensity sweeteners segment is the fastest-growing segment in the market

Based on type the market is segmented into Sucrose, High-fructose Corn Syrup, Polyol Sweeteners/Sugar Alcohols, High Intensity Sweeteners, Allulose, Tagatose, Cambya, and other types.

Among these, sucrose has been the most commonly used sweetener in the food industry, and it is still widely used today. Sucrose is a natural sweetener that is derived from sugar cane or sugar beet and has been used for centuries. It is also a relatively inexpensive sweetener compared to some of the newer sweeteners on the market. As a result, sucrose may be one of the largest segments of the sweeteners market.

The fastest-growing segment of the sweeteners market is the high-intensity sweeteners segment. High-intensity sweeteners are synthetic sweeteners that are much sweeter than sugar but contain very few or no calories. Examples of high-intensity sweeteners include aspartame, saccharin, and sucralose. These sweeteners are increasingly popular in the food and beverage industry, particularly in low-calorie and sugar-free products.

The high-intensity sweeteners segment is expected to grow rapidly in the coming years due to increasing demand for low-calorie and sugar-free products, as well as advancements in sweetener technology that are making these sweeteners more cost-effective and easier to produce.

Form Segmentation of Global Sweetener Market

Solid sweetener is the largest segment in the market

Based on the form, the market is segmented into solid sweeteners, and liquid sweeteners.

Among these, solid sweeteners segment is the largest owing to the fact that they have been more commonly used in the food industry, particularly in home cooking and baking. Solid sweeteners, such as granulated sugar, brown sugar, and powdered sugar, are easy to measure and store, making them convenient for use in recipes. While the liquid sweeteners, such as corn syrup and honey, are also widely used in the food industry too, particularly in commercial food production. Due to this the difference in the share of this and solid sugar segment is very small.

Liquid sweeteners are often used in products such as beverages, baked goods, and processed foods because they are easier to incorporate into the product and can provide a more uniform sweetness throughout. Additionally, some liquid sweeteners, such as high fructose corn syrup, are less expensive than solid sweeteners, making them an attractive option for food manufacturers.
