Market Overview:
The global methyl cellulose and derivatives market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2018 to 2030. The market growth is attributed to the increasing demand for methyl cellulose and derivatives in food & beverages, construction, pharmaceuticals, and other industries. In terms of type, the food grade segment is projected to lead the global methyl cellulose and derivatives market during the forecast period. This can be attributed to the increasing demand for food grade products in various applications such as bakery products, confectionery items, dairy products, etc. Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing region during the forecast period owing to rising disposable income levels and growing population in countries such as China and India.
Product Definition:
Methyl cellulose is a derivative of cellulose, which is made from wood pulp or cotton. It is often used as a thickener or stabilizer in food, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals.
Food Grade:
Food grade is a term used for products that are intended for human consumption. The major function of food-grade materials is to provide nourishment and sustain life. Methyl cellulose, also known as carboxymethyl cellulose or simply cellulose, is a highly refined form of the fiber obtained from the pulp of various plants including eucalyptus, palm, and bamboo.
Pharmaceutical Grade:
Pharmaceutical grade is a term used for products that are of the highest quality and purity. It is also known as pharmaceutical-grade cellulose, which is manufactured from cellulose that has been processed under controlled conditions to remove any contaminants. Cellulose acetate can be considered as one of the purest forms of cellulose available in nature owing to its ability to withstand high temperatures without decomposing.
Application Insights:
The global methylcellulose and derivatives market has been segmented on the basis of application into construction, food & beverages, pharmaceuticals, industrial and others. The construction industry was the largest consumer of methyl cellulose in 2015. It is extensively used as a structural adhesive in concrete mixes for road repairs as well as for the reinforcement of beams and columns in bridges. Methyl cellulose acts as a moisture-proofing agent which helps prevent corrosion caused by leakage water from vehicles or trains through joints or cracks over long distances.
The product also finds applications in coatings wherein it acts as an anti-settling additive to avoid sedimentation during emulsion paints preparation stages thereby helping achieve high quality end products with enhanced durability.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing region over the forecast period. The growth can be attributed to rising demand for cellulose derivatives from various end-use industries in emerging economies, such as food and beverages, pharmaceuticals, and construction. China accounted for a major share of global market revenue owing to its large production base along with growing demand from other Asian countries like Japan and India.
The increasing use of methyl cellulose in foods & beverages application is also driving regional product demand. This trend can be attributed to rising consumer awareness regarding health benefits associated with this compound including reduction in calorie content as well as improvement in stability of frozen products during transportation and storage at room temperature.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from food and beverage industry for thickening and stabilizing agents
- Rising demand for methyl cellulose in pharmaceuticals and cosmetics industries
- Growing application of methyl cellulose in paper manufacturing process
- Increasing use of methyl cellulose as a binder in various industrial applications
- Rising awareness about the benefits of methyl cellulose among consumers
