Food Colorants Market size to reach $7 Bn by 2032

  • Published Date: March 8, 2023

Food Colorants Market size is estimated to cross USD 7 billion by 2032, according to a new research report by Global Market Insights Inc.
 

The paradigm shift toward organic and naturally derived food additives will complement the food colorants industry. Natural food colorants are experiencing a substantial rise in demand owing to the growing number of health-conscious consumers and consumption of value-added food products. A wide variety of natural food colorants are employed in food and beverage processing for enhancing the nutritional composition with high levels of minerals, vitamins, and antioxidants. The growing concerns associated with nutritional deficiencies are else driving consumers toward organic products rich in micronutrients.
 

However, the lack of awareness regarding novel food additives is a key challenge for the food colorants market. The prevalence of food color utilization in home cooking is insufficient worldwide with the majority of applications across large-scale food processing. Hence, higher acceptance of food colors for household use will play an ideal role for the industry demand.
 

Rising innovation in the production of natural food colorants to boost industry trends

Natural food colorants market from source segment is projected to surpass USD 3.4 billion by 2032. In the recent past, organic food ingredients and plant-derived additives have gained significant consumer appeal as they eliminate the risk of allergies and health complications associated with synthetic colors. Natural colorants are derived from plant extracts and other sources such as bacteria, algae, and fungi. The increasing focus on fungi-based ingredients and the advent of plant-derived food trends will accelerate the production of natural food colorants, adding to the overall market growth.
 

Increasing consumption of synthetic food colors in processed foods to enhance industry expansion

Synthetic food colorants market from product segment is expected to witness over 5.9% CAGR from 2023 to 2032. Artificial food colors are relatively affordable, more stable, easily available, and have a longer shelf life. They are extensively used in a wide variety of processed as well as packed foods and beverages including jams, sauces, ready-to-eat products, candies, and snacks. This is mainly due to their appealing sensorial and physical characteristics. Moreover, the surging consumption of processed food products and non-alcoholic beverages will spur the demand for synthetic food colors, adding to the industry development.
