Key Trends and Developments

Pectin Market Trends

The need to boost protein intake and improve nutrition is driving the demand for drinkable and spoonable yoghurt. The supplementation of yoghurt with pectin improves its flavour, lengthens its shelf life, creates a creamy, rich texture, and stabilises emulsions. Fruit-based pectin is helping manufacturers produce yoghurts with a desirable mouthfeel while also meeting the needs of consumers seeking label-friendly ingredients.

Pectin is majorly sourced from apple and citric peels, however, progressing research and development to extract pectin from other possible fruit sources and fruit wastes, such as cocoa husk, sunflower heads, sugar beet, pumpkin, watermelon, pears, and potato pulp is growing.

Additionally, pectin has grown in importance in the healthcare sector owing to its ability to remove harmful compounds from the body, such as heavy metals, and long-life radionuclides of strontium, yttrium, and caesium. It is also used for removing harmful substances such as nitrates, free radicals, and xenobiotics as well as an excess of cholesterol, urea, and bile acids.

Pectin Industry Segmentation

Pectin Market Share

Based on raw material, citrus peel accounts for a significant share of the market

Pectin produced from citrus peels is known to possess excellent gelling, thickening, water-holding, and encapsulating properties, due to which, it finds applications in food processing and preservation, drug and therapeutic agents, as well as in cosmetics, and personal care products.

Due to growing health concerns, the consumption of supplements is rising. Supplements made of apple peel pectin are a great source of nutrients and offer health benefits, such as good gut health, healthy weight, reduced degeneration of hair and skin cells, aids in managing blood sugar levels, and boosts heart health.

Based on end use, jams and preserves are the major contributors to the pectin market revenue

Pectin is commonly used in marmalades, jams, and jellies as it produces a desirable gelatinous texture when cooked at a high temperature with acid and sugar. With the rising trend of using clean, label friendly ingredients, pectin is finding applications in eliminating the requirement for calcium salts to improve the texture of even low-sugar homemade jellies and jams.

The rising consumption of low-sugar fruit beverages, yoghurts, and other milk drinks amid the growing health consciousness is surging the use of pectin to improve their taste profile and mouthfeel.

Pectin Market Analysis by Region

The Asia Pacific region is one of the leading consumers of pectin

Consumers in the Asia Pacific region are seeking high-quality and innovative acidified dairy drinks, due to which key players are developing processing techniques to increase pectin purity and improve pectin stabilisation potency with high-performance sensory and functional performance. In addition, the demand for pectin with enhanced functionality to provide improved protein stabilisation as well as a lighter and refreshing mouthfeel in acidified dairy drinks is significantly increasing.

The Mediterranean climate of Europe, with its large temperature difference between day and night, contributes to an optimal ripening process and prevalence of citrus fruits. This has resulted in the increased availability of pectin in the region, as citrus fruit contains 0.5%-3.5% pectin, which is largely present in peel portion of the fruit.
