Food enzymes are complex ingredients used in food processing for several purposes, such as the enhancement of food nutritive value, the addition of flavor, and the control of food appearance and texture. It can also be used in the preservation of food.

Food processing industries like the baking industry, brewing, and fruit juice industry are currently the largest user of food enzymes. These industries hold about 40% of the USD 400 million markets.

Increasing Applications in Food and Beverage Products

The food and beverage industry is the largest market, where food enzymes services are employed globally. Enzymes are applied virtually on all the products manufactured in this industry. Also, enzymes are substitutes for some chemical additives like potassium bromates that have been banned in so many countries.

Consumers' love for convenience food has increased the demand for food and beverage products such as alcohol, cakes, bread, pastries, and doughnuts that require the application of food enzymes in their production.

Food Enzymes Market Restraint

The food enzymes market growth is hampered by some abiotic factors such as pH stability and temperature, which often alter the biochemical reactions that enhance the quality of food and beverages.

Also, consumers are forced to reduce the consumption of foods in which food enzymes are applied due to the increasing awareness regarding the negative impact of foods containing food enzymes. The European Union has created a guideline to regulate the usage of food enzymes in the food and beverage sector.
