Global Gellan Gum Market - 2019-2026

Global Gellan Gum Market Overview
The global gellan gum market was worth $XX million in 2018 and is expected to reach the US $XX million by 2026, at a CAGR of XX% during the forecast period.
Gellan gum is a water-soluble polysaccharide produced by Pseudomonas elodea. It is composed of a repeating unit of monomers. The product is manufactured through the process of chemical fermentation of a sugar source. It is commercially available in two forms – high and low acyl content. The former type forms soft, resilient and elastic gels whereas the low acyl content forms firm, brittle, and non-elastic. Varying mixture compositions of these two forms enables the production of varied textures and formulations catering wide applications in multiple end-use industries.

Increasing demand for food grade gellan gum is driving the market during the forecast period. This gum is commonly used in vegan foods because it’s produced from bacteria fermentation and not from any type of animal source.

Global Gellan Gum Market – Market Dynamics
Growing end-user industries such as food & beverage, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and others are one of the major factors driving the global gellan gum market. It is owing to the ability of gellan gum to retain the elastic properties and structure of molecules thereby preventing change in ingredients due to temperature fluctuations. Also, the product is being extensively used as a substitute to locust bean gum, xanthan gum, and guar gum as binder and stabilizer in food products. Additionally, gellan gum can also be used as an alternative to gelatin in vegan food products and helps in preventing melting of ingredients in desserts and ice-creams due to its superior properties such as transparent appearance, minimal viscosity, excellent flavor release, high pH tolerance, and shearing abilities. It also offers better stability, texture and holds to the product.
