The food emulsifier market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5%, in terms of value, from 2017 to reach a projected value of USD 3.55 Billion by 2022. The multi-functional nature of food emulsifiers, ease of incorporation in a wide range of applications, increase in demand of convenience food, increase consumption of premium products are the factors driving the food emulsifiers market. Increase in awareness with regard to the types of emulsifiers and their rising applications among the global population fuels the demand for food emulsifiers.

The food emulsifier market has been segmented by type into mono-, di-glycerides & its derivatives, lecithin, sorbitan esters, stearoyl lactylates, polyglycerol esters, and others. Mono-, di-glycerides & its derivatives has emerged as the most widely used food emulsifiers owing to their multi-functional properties and their vast applications in bakery products, confectionery, convenience foods, dairy products, and meat products.

Based on source, the plant segment is estimated to have the largest market share in 2017. The global demand for food emulsifiers from plant source is higher than animal source. Factors such as increase in demand of convenience food, increased consumption of premium products, increase in investments for research & development to develop new products for the market, and the growing demand for natural sources of ingredients are driving the food emulsifiers market.

The food emulsifiers market has been segmented on the basis of application into bakery products, confectionery, convenience foods, dairy products, and meat products. Food emulsifiers have been gaining importance in the bakery products segment with increasing health consciousness and fast-evolving indulgence by consumers due to hectic lifestyles, which drive the demand for low-calorie bakery products. New developments & wide applications provide a platform for the development of new food emulsifiers.

The Asia-Pacific region is estimated to account for the largest share, in terms of both value and volume, in the global food emulsifiers market, in 2017. Positive knowledge of segments create a platform for innovative applications of food emulsifier, and tapping the emerging markets in China, India, and Japan leads to growth opportunities in Asia-Pacific and RoW.

Larger market visibility of emulsifiers as compared to food emulsifier and high R&D costs for manufacturers restrains the total market for food emulsifier.

The leading players that dominated the food emulsifiers market include Archer Daniels Midland Company (U.S.), E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company (U.S.), Cargill (U.S.), Kerry Group Plc. (Ireland), and Ingredion Incorporated (U.S.).

The key players have been exploring the market in new regions by adopting acquisitions, expansions, investments, new product launches, agreements, and joint ventures as their preferred strategies. Key players have been increasing their technical expertise through intensive R&D investments enabling them to enhance their product offerings and capture a larger market share, thus increasing the demand for food emulsifiers.
