Market Overview:
The global liquid lactulose market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to factors such as rising demand for lactulose from the pharmaceuticals and food ingredient industries, and increasing awareness about the benefits of lactulose among consumers. Based on type, the global liquid lactulose market can be segmented into high-purity and normal purity segments. The high-purity segment is expected to account for a larger share of the market in terms of revenue due to its superior quality and properties compared to normal purity lactulose. Based on application, the global liquid lactulose market can be divided into pharmaceuticals, food ingredient, and other applications segments. The pharmaceuticals segment is projected to register highest growth during the forecast period owing to increasing use of lactulose in various prescription drugs for treating various medical conditions such as constipation, diarrhea, liver cirrhosis etc.
Product Definition:
Liquid lactulose is a synthetic sugar used to treat constipation and other gastrointestinal problems. It works by drawing water into the intestines, which softens the stool and makes it easier to pass. Liquid lactulose is also effective in treating hepatic encephalopathy, a condition caused by liver damage that can lead to confusion, seizures, and coma.
High-Purity:
High-purity liquid lactulose is a white crystalline compound, which is odorless and has a slightly sweet taste. It can be produced by the evaporation of water at an appropriate temperature to drive its demand in dairy products such as ice creams, yogurts & cheese. The product’s primary function is to provide structure and texture to these foods without being overwhelmed by acidity or sweetness of other ingredients used.
Normal Purity:
Lactulose is a naturally occurring sugar. It is produced by the action of lactating mammary glands on milk sugars. The normal purity level of lactulose ranges from 90% to 100%.
Application Insights:
Liquid lactulose is used in various applications including pharmaceuticals, food ingredients and others. The other application segment includes personal care & cosmetics, wood pulp processing and textiles among others. Pharmaceutical was the largest application segment in 2017 accounting for over 50% of global demand with a market value of USD 80 million. Liquid lactulose is used as an intermediate product in the manufacture of tablets, syrups and powders for several drugs such as antibiotics, analgesics (painkillers), antidiarrheals (for diarrhea), sedatives/hypnotics (for sleeping) among others.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in 2017. The region is expected to maintain its position through the forecast period on account of increasing demand for pharmaceutical products and food ingredients. Asia Pacific is anticipated to witness significant growth over the coming years owing to rising product consumption in countries, such as China, India, Japan and South Korea. Moreover, increasing investments by foreign players are likely to boost lactulose production capacity in this region over the next seven years.
The European market was valued at USD X million in 2017 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of XX% from 2018 to 2030 owing high purity level product requirements coupled with low levels of impurities present compared with other regions globally.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing prevalence of constipation and other gastrointestinal disorders
- Rising awareness about the benefits of lactulose for treating constipation and other gastrointestinal disorders
- Growing demand for natural and non-GMO products
- Technological advancements in the production of lactulose
- Expansion of distribution channels
