Product Definition:
Cellulose ether is a type of organic compound that is derived from cellulose. It is used as a binder, thickener, and stabilizer in various food products.
Methyl Cellulose (MC):
It has an amorphous structure with a weak molecular weight. The product is white in color and soluble in water, ethanol, acetone and ether; it's insoluble in cold water.
Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC):
Hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose (HPMC) is a form of hydrocolloids, which is widely used in pharmaceuticals and food additives. It has high viscosity and thermal stability making it an ideal choice for various applications. HPMC acts as a stabilizer, thickener, binder & excipient in the production of tablets by disintegration or suspension methods.
Application Insights:
Food and beverage was the largest application segment in 2016, accounting for over 50% of the overall demand. Growing food processing industry across North America and Europe is expected to remain a key factor driving consumption in this segment.
The product has wide applications in beverages including carbonated soft drinks, energy drinks, fruit juices & nectars as well as water-based products such as tea-flavored water and coffee creamer. Rising health awareness among consumers is expected to promote usage of dietary supplements which are high in fiber content cellulose ethers along with other ingredients like herbs and botanicals that improve digestion process thereby promoting its use within these beverages.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing region, in terms of revenue, over the forecast period. The growth can be attributed to rising demand for cellulose ethers from various end-use industries such as food and beverages, construction and drilling fluids. Rising disposable income coupled with expanding population in emerging countries including China and India is expected to drive product consumption over the next eight years.
The market in North America was valued at USD X million owing to high consumption levels of HPMC products used as thickeners in paints.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from end-use industries such as construction, automotive, and packaging
- Rising awareness about the benefits of cellulose ethers over traditional materials
- Growing investments in research and development to develop new applications for cellulose ethers
- Expansion of manufacturing capacities by key players in the market
- Emergence of bio-based cellulose ethers as a potential replacement for conventional products
