Hydrocolloids Market - Forecasts from 2025 to 2030
Description
Hydrocolloids market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.45% to be valued at US$13.338 billion in 2030 from US$10.232 billion in 2025.
Hydrocolloids are used extensively in a wide variety of food products as gelling and thickening agents for improving the shelf-life and quality of food products. Hydrocolloids are colloids (particles) mixed in water (hydro). These particles are what provide the right viscosity, texture, or structure to many foods you likely consume daily.
Increasing worldwide demand for processed and ready-to-eat food and beverage products is driving the need for hydrocolloids in the food and beverage industry. The expanding use of hydrocolloids in various sectors, including textiles and the pulp and paper industry, is further accelerating the growth of the global hydrocolloids market.
Regionally, North America dominates the global market, holding the largest share due to the presence of key industry players and significant investments in research and development. Meanwhile, the Asia-Pacific region is experiencing the most rapid growth during the forecast period, fueled by a rising preference for processed and convenient food options. Additionally, growing consumer awareness of medications is increasing demand for over-the-counter (OTC) drugs in countries like China and India, which in turn is enhancing the need for hydrocolloids in the region’s pharmaceutical sector.
Some of the major players covered in this report include Cargill Incorporated, DSM (Koninklijke DSM N.V.), Kerry Group plc., Archer-Daniels-Midland Company (ADM), Ashland Inc., Jungbunzlauer Suisse AG, Ingredion Incorporated, CP Kelco U.S., Inc., and Tate & Lyle plc, among others.
