Report Description
Microencapsulation Market Size & Forecast
The microencapsulation market was valued at USD 12,624.52 million in 2023 and is expected to grow at a robust CAGR of around 11.84% during the forecast period (2024-2032) driven by the growing application in the pharmaceutical industry, rising demand in home and personal care products due the growing urbanization, rising working population and demand for sustainable and eco-friendly products.
Microencapsulation Market Analysis
Microencapsulation has been considered as an effective tool in developing new foods with multiple functionalities. This technology has been employed in commercial products such as juices, chocolates, meats, and poultry. For example, in January 2023, the German company BASF SE, which specializes in the microencapsulation of vitamins, implemented a new microencapsulation process for vitamin A and D powders used for flour and sugar fortification that provides the highest possible stability. BASF recently launched BHT-free vitamin A to enhance flour and sugar fortification. It is a vitamin A palmitate powder for direct application or through premixes. Technical comparison reveals that this BHT-free vitamin A powder has higher stability than other BHT-free vitamin A powders available in the market. In addition, due to the development of the pharmaceutical industry, microencapsulation has a significant function as a means of controlled and targeted administration of medicines, as well as concealing a bitter taste and smell and increasing the stability of drugs. Hence, this market has multiplied in the last couple of years and is expected to continue with the same trend.
Microencapsulation Market Trends
Increasing Demand for Flavor Masking Microencapsulation
The rising need for flavor masking microencapsulation to enhance taste, safeguarding, and effective release of active ingredients. The most well-known practical application of microencapsulation is the flavor masking, which is a critical aspect of drug delivery since many drugs have nasty tastes or smells that can deter patients from taking them. Through the process of encapsulation, the bitter taste and/or offensive smell of the API can be well disguised within a coating material, thereby enhancing the palatability and acceptability of the medicine. This has prompted pharmaceutical companies to develop microencapsulated formulations that are targeted at children. For instance, Novartis released microencapsulated antibiotic suspension with better taste which means that children can take their medicine easily.
North America Dominated the Microencapsulation Market
The North America microencapsulation market shall have the largest market size in the forecast period due to factors including the presence of well-developed pharmaceutical sector, growing food and beverage industry, high investments in the R&D and favorable regulations. This region, specifically North America, is home to large pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that rely on microencapsulation tools and systems for drug delivery, taste improvement, and stability. For example, Pfizer, Merck, and Amgen have developed microencapsulated medicines for better dissolution rate, sustained release, and targeted supply to tissues or organs. However, one of the driving forces for advancing the complex microencapsulation technique is the sound regulatory regime of the region as well as the stringent approval of the US FDA and Health Canada. North America is also a dynamically developing region of the F&B industry, on which Nestle, PepsiCo, and Kraft Heinz spent millions to develop microencapsulation technologies to produce new types of functional foods, enhanced beverages, and nutraceuticals. For instance, Nestle has applied it in preparing better tasting and smelling coffee products while Pepsi Co has applied the technique to coat probiotics in juices for protection and timed release. The changing customer preferences towards improved quality and convenience foods continue to drive the food sector in the region towards the adoption of micro-encapsulation technologies.
