Pea protein is a plant-based protein ingredient derived from peas (Pisum sativum). It is produced through processes such as milling, fractionation, and protein extraction to obtain pea protein isolates, concentrates, and textured proteins. Pea protein is valued for its high protein content, nutritional profile, relatively neutral taste, and functional properties such as solubility, water-holding capacity, and emulsification. It is used across a wide range of food and beverage applications, including plant-based meat and dairy alternatives, sports and nutrition products, bakery products, and nutritional supplements.
The pea protein market refers to the industry segment involved in the production, processing, distribution, and consumption of pea-derived protein ingredients. The market encompasses suppliers and processors of peas, manufacturers of pea protein isolates, concentrates, and textured proteins, and food and beverage companies incorporating pea protein into their products.
