Asia-Pacific is expected to dominate the bioactive ingredients market during the forecast period owing to increasing consumer awareness and high inclination towards healthy products. People are turning towards healthy food that fulfill the requirement of essential nutrients in the body. Animal feed manufacturers tend to attain more output from animals when nutritious ingredients are used in animal feed, which is further escalating the growth of the bioactive ingredients market in the region. Also, increasing awareness about bioactive ingredients among healthcare professionals, and a flourishing personal care industry using bioactive ingredients in their products are some other vital factors affirming the growth of global bioactive ingredients market.

However, Europe is expected to register the highest growth rate during the forecast period due to rising health care expenditure, an increase of lifestyle diseases, and increasing consumer’s preference for natural and organic ingredients over synthetic ingredients. Inadequate nutrition uptake due to the current hectic lifestyle and increased co-prescription of bioactive ingredient with the regular drug are some of the major drivers for the bioactive ingredient market growth in the region. Furthermore, the existence of established pharmaceutical and nutraceutical industries is estimated to boost the regional market share.

Recent Development

Mar 2022 Demetrix, a biotechnology business that makes bioactive chemicals, announced its commercial manufacturing campaign for cannabigerol in 2022. (CBG). Initial global clients in the personal care and nutrition industries have agreed to buy over 70% of our total output this year, generating multi-million-dollar revenue in 2022. This is the first of several successful commercial productions runs Demetrix will accomplish to service a growing external customer base this year.

Mar 2022 Prodalim Resources Ltd will demonstrate prototypes of their Capsoil FoodTech platform, which converts bioactive oil molecules into water-soluble powders, such as fat-soluble vitamins, nutritious oils, and lipid-based minerals. Oil-based substances may be transformed into an ultra-fine, water-soluble,self-emulsifying powder using the Capsoil FoodTech platform, making them easier to incorporate into a wide range of foods, drinks, and expanded forms of nutritional supplements.
