Hydrocolloids Market Size Worth $18.81 Billion By 2032 | CAGR: 6.1%


The global hydrocolloids market size is expected to reach USD 18.81 billion by 2032, according to a new study by Polaris Market Research. The report “Hydrocolloids Market Share, Size, Trends, Industry Analysis Report, By Type; By Source (Animal, Microbial, Botanical, Seaweed, Others); By Function; By End-Use; By Region; Segment Forecast, 2024 - 2032” gives a detailed insight into current market dynamics and provides analysis on future market growth.

The food and beverage industry's increased utilization of hydrocolloids is driving growth in the market. These substances are widely used as food additives in various formulations to improve quality and prolong shelf-life. They serve primarily as rheology modifiers in food and beverage production, allowing for the modification of texture and viscosity and subsequently altering the sensory properties of the final product. Hydrocolloids also act as stabilizers, water retention agents, emulsifiers, and gelling agents in many food products. Furthermore, they can prevent the formation of ice and sugar crystals in ice cream while providing controlled flavor release.

Hydrocolloids are a mixture of polysaccharides that can create a gel-like substance when mixed with water. They are sourced from various sources, such as plants, animals, seaweed, and microorganisms, and have gained significant popularity among manufacturers globally. These substances are used extensively in different application sectors such as food and beverage, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals due to their ability to thicken, gel, stabilize, and improve texture. With the increasing demand for convenience, manufacturers use hydrocolloids heavily in various processed foods, which drives the market growth for these products.
