Description

According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Food Grade Xanthan Gum market size was valued at US$ 477 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of USD 629 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 4.5% during review period.

As a food additive, food-grade xanthan gum can significantly improve the texture, taste, and appearance quality of food by controlling the rheological behavior of the product, and increase its commercial value. It is an important stabilizer, suspending agent, and emulsifier in food and beverage production. agents, thickeners, adhesives and high value-added, high-quality processing raw materials.

Widely used in the food industry

Xanthan gum is mainly used as a thickener, suspending agent, emulsifier and stabilizer in the food industry. Under certain harsh regulations (such as pH value of 3-9, temperature of 80-130℃), its performance is basically stable, which is superior to gelatin, carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), alginate, pectin, etc. At present, the petroleum industry and the food industry are the most important uses of xanthan gum.

Growing market demand

Xanthan gum is widely used in food and beverages. In the next few years, driven by downstream demand, the xanthan gum market will continue to grow.

High brand barriers

Xanthan gum is mainly produced in China, and the industry concentration is high. At present, Fufeng Group, Meihua Group and Zhongxuan Biochemical occupy most of the market share. If new brands want to enter the xanthan gum market, they will face huge challenges in brand awareness and reputation.

Risk of anti-dumping investigation

In 2012, CP Kelco of the United States sued Chinese and Austrian xanthan gum manufacturers to the U.S. Department of Commerce and the U.S. International Trade Commission. The U.S. Department of Commerce immediately launched an anti-dumping investigation and formally ruled in July 2013 to impose tariffs on xanthan gum imported from China. On June 1, 2018, the United States launched the first anti-dumping sunset review investigation on Chinese xanthan gum. On September 26, 2018, the U.S. Department of Commerce made the first anti-dumping sunset review final ruling on xanthan gum imported from China. On October 2, 2023, the U.S. Department of Commerce launched the second anti-dumping sunset review investigation on xanthan gum imported from China. If a major xanthan gum consumer launches an anti-dumping investigation against Chinese xanthan gum products in the future, it will once again bring legal and administrative costs to Chinese xanthan gum manufacturers and the entire industry, and will be forced to increase product prices, affecting product demand.
