Market Overview:
The global leucine market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for leucine from the food, feed, and pharmaceuticals industries. Leucine is an essential amino acid that plays a key role in protein synthesis and muscle growth. It is also known for its anti-inflammatory properties. Thus, it is used as a dietary supplement by athletes and bodybuilders to improve performance and muscle mass. In addition, leucine has been found to be effective in treating various medical conditions such as obesity, diabetes, cancer, and heart disease.
Product Definition:
Leucine is an essential amino acid that helps regulate blood sugar levels, energy production and muscle growth. It is one of the branched chain amino acids (BCAAs) that are important for athletes because they help muscles recover after a workout.
Food Grade:
Food grade Leucine is a type of amino acid that is extracted from animal and plant protein. It’s purification process involves extraction of the amino acid from its natural source, which includes swine, bovine or poultry meat. Food-grade leucine has high purity as compared to industrial or laboratory-grade products owing to the presence of stringent regulations for its production and quality standards by various governing bodies including U.
Feed Grade:
Feed grade is the highest quality form of leucine. It has a purity level of 99%. The product is manufactured using high-quality raw materials and advanced technology. Feed grade leucine is used as an essential ingredient in animal feed to promote growth, reproduction, and overall health in animals.
It plays an important role in promoting bone strength, muscle mass, body condition score as well as improving milk production & quality among others.
Application Insights:
The application segment includes food, feed and pharmaceuticals. The food application dominated the global market in 2017 with a share of over 80% owing to high demand from countries such as Japan, China and India. Leucine is considered as an essential amino acid because the body cannot produce sufficient quantities of it; therefore it has been classified as a nutritional supplement for humans.
The feed application segment is expected to witness the fastest growth rate over the forecast period due to increasing utilization in animal nutrition products such as protein supplements and energy blocks for horses. In addition, leucine plays an important role in stimulating milk production in cows; this factor will drive product demand during the forecast period.
Pharmaceutical applications are anticipated to witness significant growth during future years on account of its therapeutic benefits which include neurodegenerative disorders treatment, cancer treatment resistance enhancement among others (Sanchez et al., 2018).
Regional Analysis:
Europe was the second-largest regional market in 2017. The region is expected to maintain its position through the forecast period owing to high animal feed production and consumption as well as strong presence of multinational leucine manufacturers. Asia Pacific is projected to be the fastest-growing regional market from 2018 to 2030 due mainlyto increasing meat consumption in China, India, Japan, and other countries coupled with rising investment by multinational companies for manufacturing nutritional products such as amino acid solutions and sports drinks.
China accounted for a major share in global feed industry owing to abundant availability of land along with government support for establishing new plants across rural areas which resulted into increased production capacity at a relatively lower cost compared with established units located near urban centers.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for Leucine supplements by athletes and bodybuilders for muscle growth and performance.
- Rising awareness about the benefits of Leucine in weight management and sports nutrition.
- Growing popularity of high-protein diets, which has led to an increase in the demand for Leucine supplements.
- The increasing use of Leucine as a food additive or flavor enhancer in processed foods products.
