The global prebiotic ingredients market is estimated to be valued at USD 4.07 Billion in 2017; it is projected to grow at a CAGR of 10.4%, to reach USD 7.37 Billion by 2023. Factors such as an increase in the adoption of healthy diets, a wide range of application in the food & beverage industry, and multifunctional nature of prebiotic ingredients are driving their market.

On the basis of application, food & beverages accounted for the largest share, followed by the dietary supplements industry, in 2016. The growth in the bakery, confectionery, and convenience food sectors is fueling the demand for margarine, as it is a cost-effective substitute for butter.

The prebiotic ingredients market, on the basis of type, is segmented into oligosaccharides, inulin, and polydextrose. The inulin segment accounted for the largest market share in 2016, as it can also be used as a fat replacer, sugar replacer, and texture modifier, as well as for the development of functional foods.

On the basis of source, prebiotics sourced from roots accounted for a larger market share in 2016, followed by grain-sourced prebiotics. The amount of prebiotic ingredients that can be extracted from roots is the highest among all other sources; the fibrous content of the roots are high. Hence, many companies provide prebiotics sourced from roots, thereby making it the largest segment, by source, globally.

Europe accounted for the largest share of the prebiotic ingredients market in 2016. This growth is mainly due to the ban on antibiotic growth promoters, imposed by the European Union, back in 2006. Since then, prebiotics have been majorly used by feed manufacturers in additives for animal growth and nutrition.

The major restraining factor for this market is low awareness regarding the difference between probiotic and prebiotic ingredients, and high manufacturing and R&D costs.

Companies such as BENEO (Germany), Cargill (US), DuPont (US), and FrieslandCampina (Netherlands) have acquired a leading market position through the provision of an expansion and broad product portfolio, along with a focus on diverse end-user segments. They are also focused on innovations and are geographically diversified.
