Customized Premixes Market

Food Fortification to Drive Consumption

Primarily used for balancing nutrient loss and bridging nutritional gaps, functional or fortified food products are increasingly gaining traction in foodservice space. Vegetable-rich foods, high-protein, and superfoods are topping the menu list among diners; weight management, heart health, and gut health are the most prevalent issues.

As per Institute of Food Technologists (IFT), globally, sales of fortified food pegged US$ 267 Bn, while sales of naturally healthy food were US$ 259 Bn in February 2020. Moving ahead, survey conducted by the International Food Information Council (IFIC) Foundation on Food and Health stated that 47% of consumers prefer food with additional nutrients.

Manufacturers are developing patented fortified premixes with additional nutrient aspects. Fortification of bakery and dairy products will remain among driving factors for evolution of customized premixes market across the world.

Players Turning to Drum-to-hopper Manufacturing Technique

Drum-to-hopper formulations help maintain optimum health as well as improve the immunity of body against various pathogens. These formulations consumed as dietary supplements are gaining huge traction in healthcare sector, as they have minimal to no additives. As such, consumption of drum-to-hopper formulations is rising as they improve overall fitness of consumers.

Installation and utilization of drum-to-hopper manufacturing process will offer impetus to customized premix market. Despite, capturing meagre share in global customized premix market, players will hurt their value pool if they do not invest in drum-to-hopper manufacturing process.

Category-wise Insights

Amino Acid Premixes Consumption to Prevail

At present, consumption of amino acid premixes will remain prevalent, especially in Asia Pacific (APAC) and Latin America. Countries such as India, and China are benefitting from scaling up domestic production of amino acids, especially lysine, as they are available at lesser costs.

On the other hand, vitamin premixes and omega 3 fatty acid premixes are seeing greater demand, says FMI report. During the latter half of forecast period, consumption of vitamin premixes will outpace that of amino acid premixes. In addition, omega 3 fatty acid premixes will share nearly equal divide with amino acid premixes in coming years.

Powdered Customized Premixes Preferred Form

Given their durability, powdered customized premixes will remain highly preferable among consumers. Customized nutrient premixes possess relatively greater stability in powdered form compared to liquid form. In addition, convenient packaging of powdered customized premixes staves off complexity in supply chain processes, resulting in their greater adoption.

Powdered customized premixes cover broad array of food applications such as health drink powders, low-fat milk powders, desert mixtures, and soup mixes. FMI states that about 8 out of 10 customized premixes to be sold will be in powdered form.
