Description
The global Lactoferrin and Lactoperoxidase market size is predicted to grow from US$ 607 million in 2025 to US$ 887 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% from 2025 to 2031.
The impact of the latest U.S. tariff measures and the corresponding policy responses from countries worldwide on market competitiveness, regional economic performance, and supply chain configurations will be comprehensively evaluated in this report.
Lactoferrin and lactoperoxidase is a part of whey protein concentrate. Lactoferrin is only partly saturated with iron mostly present in, mammalian and many exocrine fluids such as saliva and mucous secretion. Lactoperoxidase is a hemoprotein enables to catalyze the oxidation of thyocyanate and iodide ions to produce oxidizing agents. It is primarily found in cervical mucus, exocrine secretions as saliva, lachrymal fluid and milk and nasal glands.
The main drivers of the lactoferrin and lactoperoxidase markets include:
Increased health awareness and consumption upgrade
Growing demand for immune support: Globally, consumers have a surge in demand for enhanced immunity, intestinal health and iron absorption. Lactoferrin has become a core ingredient in functional foods and supplements due to its antibacterial, antiviral and iron absorption-promoting properties.
The rise of the middle class: The expansion of the middle class in emerging markets (such as Southeast Asia and Latin America) has driven the demand for high-end infant formula. Parents' increased awareness of "close to breast milk ingredients" has made formula containing lactoferrin the first choice.
Precision nutrition trend: Consumers have increased demand for customized health products, such as high-purity lactoferrin supplements and fortified foods for women with iron deficiency, which has expanded the application scenarios.
Policy support and regulatory promotion
International certification accelerates market access: The EU has approved bovine lactoferrin for infant formula (≤1g/L), and the US FDA has approved a number of lactoferrin GRAS certifications, which has increased market trust.
Domestic standards guide consumption: China has released the "Infant Formula Lactoferrin Content Evaluation Report" to standardize market publicity, promote industry transparency, and indirectly stimulate demand growth.
Natural antibacterial demand growth
Food industry replaces chemical preservatives: Consumers' demand for "clean label" foods has increased, and lactoperoxidase is used to preserve dairy and meat products due to its natural antibacterial properties.
Oral care and wound healing: Its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects promote its application in toothpaste, mouthwash and wound dressings, reducing the use of chemical additives.
Policy support and industry standards
Natural ingredient policy tilt: The EU and the United States encourage the food industry to use natural preservatives, and lactoperoxidase, as a milk-derived ingredient, meets regulatory requirements.
Quality standard improvement: ISO and other institutions have issued lactoperoxidase activity detection standards to improve product safety and promote market standardization.
Technological progress and improved extraction efficiency
Membrane separation technology breakthrough: Ceramic membrane technology achieves efficient separation of lactoperoxidase, with purity increased to more than 90%, reducing production costs.
Research on new extraction methods: The two-phase aqueous method optimizes the extraction process, reduces the use of organic solvents, and promotes industrial applications.
Application expansion in the medical and health fields
Breast protection research: Lactoperoxidase has an antibacterial protective effect on the breast and is explored for use in mastitis prevention products.
Immunomodulatory potential: Its anti-inflammatory mechanism shows potential in the treatment of immune system diseases, promoting cooperative research and development among pharmaceutical companies.
Food safety and quality control needs
Demand for extended shelf life: The food industry has an increasing demand for natural preservatives, and lactoperoxidase can extend the shelf life of dairy products by 30%-50%.
Clean label trend: Consumers are more vigilant about food additives, and lactoperoxidase as a "natural ingredient" meets market preferences.
Lactoferrin: Driven by the demand for infant formula, breakthroughs in biosynthesis technology, and the trend of precision nutrition, the market size is expected to double in the next ten years, and the application scenarios will be further diversified.
Lactoperoxidase: The demand for natural antibacterial, the promotion of food industry policies, and technological progress will accelerate its transition from laboratory to industrialization, especially in the fields of food preservation and medical treatment.
