Market Overview:
The global liquid capsules market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.8% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing demand for liquid capsules from the pharmaceutical and health supplements industries. In addition, the growing awareness about the benefits of using liquid capsules is also contributing to the growth of this market. The global liquid capsules market can be segmented on the basis of type into gelatin and vegetarian capsules. Gelatin-based capsules are more popular than vegetarian-based ones, as they are easier to manufacture and have a longer shelf life. However, with rising consumer awareness about health issues, there is an increasing demand for vegetarian-based capsulses in developed countries such as Europe and North America. On the basis of application,the global liquid capsule market can be divided into pharmaceuticals, health supplements and others (including food & beverage products).
Product Definition:
Liquid capsules are a type of capsule that is filled with a liquid instead of a powder or tablet. They are used to deliver medications, supplements, and other liquids directly to the stomach. This can be helpful for people who have difficulty swallowing pills or for those who need to take large doses of medication or supplements. Liquid capsules also provide faster absorption than tablets or powders, which can be beneficial for people who need quick relief from symptoms.
Gelatin:
Gelatin is a protein derived from collagen. It has been used in pharmaceutical and food industry for the production of capsules, tablets, films, and coatings. The growth factor in liquid capsules market helps to reduce gastrointestinal irritation caused due to capsule intake; it also increases the bioavailability of active ingredients by enhancing dissolution time as well as absorption rate through stomach lining.
The global gelatin market size was valued at USD 1.91 billion in 2015.
Vegetarian:
Vegetarian is a diet which does not include meat, fish, eggs or any animal products such as milk, cheese or gelatin. The food habits of vegetarianism have been increasing over the world owing to various factors such as growing health concerns and environmental pollution caused by excessive consumption of animal based foods. Moreover rising awareness about the benefits offered by vegetarian foods has also been fueling market growth over the past few years.
Application Insights:
Health supplements was the largest application segment in 2017 and is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period. Liquid capsules are used for manufacturing a wide range of health supplements including vitamins, minerals, amino acids, herbs & botanicals and other dietary ingredients. Liquid formulations reduce exposure toerosine from air during storage as well as during transit which makes them suitable for long-term storage.
Liquid capsules can also be used for encapsulation of active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) that require longer release time in the body such as analgesics, antacids and anti-inflammatory drugs among others. The growing use of liquid capsules for manufacturing various health supplements coupled with high demand from end-users is anticipated to drive industry growth over the forecast period.
Regional Analysis:
North America accounted for the largest share of over 35.0% in 2017 owing to high demand from dietary supplement and pharmaceutical sectors. The capsule manufacturing industry is expected to witness growth due to rising demand for ready-to-drink beverages, especially coffee and tea among consumers aged between 20 and 40 years in the region.
Asia Pacific is projected to be one of the fastest growing regional markets with a CAGR exceeding 6.5% during the forecast period on account of increasing health supplements consumption coupled with rising awareness about nutritional products among middle-income age groups in China, India, Indonesia, Malaysia & Vietnam as well as other emerging economies such as Bangladesh & Pakistan. In addition, improving living standards along with rapid urbanization are likely to boost market growth over this period.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for convenience foods: The growing trend of busy lifestyles has led to an increased demand for convenient food options such as liquid capsules. This is because they are easy to consume and do not require any preparation time.
- Rising awareness about the health benefits of liquid capsules: There is a growing awareness among consumers about the health benefits of consuming liquid capsules.
