Market Overview:
Micro-encapsulation shell material is a type of material that is used to encapsulate the core material. The micro-encapsulation shell material can be made from different types of polymers, gums & resins, lipids, carbohydrates and proteins. The micro-encapsulation shell material has different applications such as pharmaceuticals & healthcare, food and beverage, home & personal care and agrochemicals. The global market for micro-encapsulation shell materials is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. Some of the key factors driving the growth of this market include increasing demand for functional foods and beverages and rising awareness about personal care products among consumers. In addition, growing demand for agrochemical products in developing countries is also contributing to the growth of this market.
Product Definition:
Micro-encapsulation shell material is a material that coats and protects tiny particles of medication or other substances. The micro-capsules can then be swallowed or injected, and the shell will protect the medication from being broken down in the stomach or other organs before it reaches its target. This allows for more precise delivery of medications, which can improve their effectiveness.
Polymers:
Microencapsulation is a procedure where small solid particles are coated with an enteric coating and then the coated particles are suspended in water or another liquid to give the solution a uniform appearance. The process of micro encapsulation is used for manufacturing various products such as food additives, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics & toiletries among others.
Polymers have been one of the most important materials in microencapsulation technology over past few years owing to their unique physical properties.
Gums & Resins:
Gums and resins are natural substances, mostly extracted from various plants. They have been widely used in microencapsulation shell material (MESM) production. Gums and resin-based MESMs offer several advantages over conventional ones, such as low toxic gas emissions during encapsulation operations, improved mechanical strength of the final product along with enhanced thermal stability.
Application Insights:
The global demand for micro-encapsulation has witnessed a paradigm shift due to rising awareness among consumers regarding healthy lifestyle practices. The food and beverage sector was the largest application segment in 2015, accounting for over 40% of the total revenue share. The segment is expected to witness significant growth on account of increasing consumer preference towards functional foods that provide nutritional benefits along with improved aesthetic appeal.
Micro-encapsulated products such as vitamins, minerals, herbs and amino acids have been found to improve overall nutrition quality as well as increase its bioavailability by enhancing absorption through the digestive system. This factor is anticipated to drive product demand in this application segment over the forecast period.
Growing environmental concerns coupled with rising health consciousness are driving home.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing regional market over the forecast period. The region’s growth can be attributed to rapid industrialization and increasing demand for microencapsulated products from various end-use industries. Asia Pacific is also one of the largest producers of agricultural commodities, which will positively impact industry growth in this region.
The Europe market was valued at USD X million in 2017 and is anticipated to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to rising product demand from several end-use industries such as food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, home care products among others. Increasing R&D activities on microencapsulation are also expected drive regional product demand over the next eight years.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for micro-encapsulation shell material from the pharmaceutical and nutraceutical industries for the development of novel drug delivery systems.
- Growing popularity of micro-encapsulated products in food and beverage industry due to their enhanced flavor, color, and nutritional value.
- Rising demand for micro-encapsulated products in personal care industry for the development of novel skin care formulations.
- Increasing research activities on encapsulation technologies that would help improve product performance and stability across different applications segments.
