Market Ecosystem

The various contributors involved in the value chain of industrial enzymes include suppliers, processors, end-product manufacturers, regulatory organizations, and end-use industries. Niche technological companies with biotechnology and microbiology competences indulge in R&D activities for industrial enzymes to develop innovative products, and upon successful testing, mass produce novel enzymes. End-use industries such as food & beverages, detergents, animal feed, and biofuel procure industrial enzymes through contractual agreements with research institutes or through an intermediate supplier. These companies typically use these enzymes in the production process while manufacturing final products such as textile, paper, biofuel, and detergents. Maximum value addition can be observed in the R&D stage of enzyme development, followed by the manufacturing stage, and distribution channels.

The industrial enzymes market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.8%, in terms of value, from 2016 to reach a projected value of USD 6.30 Billion by 2022. The market is driven by the demand from Asia-Pacific countries, particularly India, China, and Japan. Increase in demand for biofuel, advancements in R&D activities for industrial enzymes, growth in demand for consumer products, and multi-functionality of industrial enzymes are the factors driving the market. The increased focus on cost reduction and resource optimization in various manufacturing processes fuels the demand for industrial enzymes.

The global market has been segmented by type, into amylases, cellulases, proteases, lipases, phytases, and others. Proteases have emerged as the most widely used industrial enzymes due to their wider application areas such as food, beverage, detergents, and pharmaceuticals. The demand for cellulases is growing, owing to the increase in industrial application of biofuels.

Based on source, the microorganism segment accounted for the largest market share in 2015. The global demand for microorganism based enzymes is higher when compared to that for plants & animals, owing to their predictable and controllable enzyme content. Factors such as reliable supplies of microbes and presence of harmful materials in plants & animals also drive the demand for the microorganism segment.

The global market has been segmented on the basis of application into food & beverages, cleaning agents, animal feed, and others. Industrial enzymes have a wide range of application in industries such as food, beverage, detergent, and biofuel. Enzymes have been gaining importance in various industrial processes, due to the effective catalytic properties exhibited by them. New developments in biotechnology and protein engineering provide a platform for the development of new enzymes efficiently; hence, new enzymes with improved properties are increasingly being used for technical applications such as biofuel, textile, detergent, and pharmaceutical.

The North American region accounted for the largest share, in terms of both value and volume, in the global industrial enzymes market, in 2015. Niche consumers, developed technologies, and global industrialization are the major factors driving the industrial enzymes. The rise in population, per capita income, healthcare expenditure, increase in awareness of diseases, buying power of population, and rapid growth in technologies lead to growth opportunities in Asia-Pacific and RoW.

Strict regulations imposed by different government agencies and lack of a uniform regulatory structure for the use of industrial enzymes are the factors restraining the global market. Lack of transparency in patent protection laws in several countries restrains the total market.

The leading players that dominated the global market include BASF SE (Germany), E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Company (U.S.), Associated British Foods plc (U.K.), Koninklijke DSM N.V. (Netherlands), and Novozymes A/S (Denmark). The key players have been exploring the market in new regions by adopting acquisitions, expansions, new product launches, and agreements, partnerships, and collaborations 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 industrial enzymes.
