Global Glucose Market by Application (F&B, Pharmaceutical, Pulp & Paper, Cosmetic & Personal Care), by Form (Solid, Syrup) and Region (North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific and Middle East & Africa), Forecast To 2028

Summary of the Report

Global glucose market was valued at USD 42.9 billion in 2020. It is projected to grow at a compound annual rate (CAGR of 5.0%) between 2020 and 2028. The market is driven by the increasing demand for sugary drinks, bakery products, and other food and beverage products that use glucose (dextrose). Glucose is in high demand across many industries, including food and beverage, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, personal care and pulp and paper. It is used as a flavor enhancer and stabilizer, texture enhancer and adjunct, preservative, coating and bulking agent, as well as a preservative and coating agent. It is able to prevent crystallization of sugar molecules within confectionaries. These are some of the many benefits that glucose has that are driving its use and demand around the world.

The highest revenue share in the U.S. market was held by the glucose syrup segment. Because of the high availability of corn starch in the United States, glucose is mainly derived from corn syrup. The FDA has approved the use of glucose syrup/corn syrup by manufacturers under 21CFR184.1865. The syrup segment has been dominant in the market.

Chemically, glucose and dextrose have the same chemical structure and are often referred to interchangeably. According to the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), glucose can also be called dextrose, d-glucose or glucose. Hypoglycemia is a medical condition in which the blood sugar or glucose levels of a person are lower than normal. Dextrose injections can be used to treat it. If the patient is unable to drink enough liquid, or if additional liquid is required, these injections can provide extra water and carbohydrates (calories derived from sugar).

The main factor driving demand for glucose or dextrose is the expanding use of the product in the end-use sector. It is widely used in food and beverage as a sweetener and thickener and as a moisture-retaining agent. In the pharmaceutical industry, glucose is used to treat low sugar, acute alcohol poisoning, sulfonylurea addiction, sulfonylurea hyperdose, insulin overdose, insulin intoxication in children, high blood potassium, or hyperkalemia.

Cosmeticsinfo.org is a website sponsored and maintained by The Personal Care Products Council and its member companies. It reports that glucose is used in cosmetics, personal care, and other product formulations such as skincare, hair care products and cleaning products. Their use in each market is due to the functions of glucose, including flavoring agent and humectant as well as skin-conditioning agents.

Covid-19 has had a negative impact on the market's growth due to the lockdowns that were announced by the governments of each country in order to stop the spread of the disease. Due to disruptions in supply chain models, there has been an increase in the supply and demand gap across the international market. For that period, the per capita incomes of these countries have been negatively affected, which has led to decreased sales revenue for manufacturers in end-use sectors such as food and beverage, pharmaceutical, pulp and paper, and other.

The side effects of excessive sugar consumption in food products are expected to limit growth over the period 2020-2028. Sugar intake can lead to excess fat accumulation, which can then turn into fatty liver acids. This can increase your risk of developing diabetes and other heart diseases. America is one of the countries that has a high sugar consumption. They are working hard to reduce it in final food and beverage products.

The American Heart Association (AHA) states that an American adult consumes 77g of sugar daily, more than three times the recommended limit. Men and women have different amounts of sugar. It is 150 calories for men (equals 37.5g, 9 teaspoons), and 100 calories for women (equals 25g, 6 teaspoons). The AHA also recommends that men not consume more than 150 calories per day of added sugar, while women should limit their intake to 100 calories.

Form Insights

The market was dominated by the syrup segment, which accounted for 71.2% of the total revenue share in 2020. It is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. It's basically liquid glucose that is derived from corn, but also from other cereal grains like wheat, rice and barley. AGRANA Beteiligungs-AG, for example, offers a range of glucose syrups under the brand AGENABON. The majority of them are made from wheat and corn.

Glucose syrup, also known as liquid glucose, is often available in a colorless form. It has a wide range of applications across food and beverages. These include bakery products, candy, beer, fondant and chocolate. Its beneficial properties include taste enhancement, bulking and moisture-retaining. They also prevent crystallization and lower freezing point.

The market for glucose syrup is constantly evolving with the introduction of non-GMO, low sugar, organic, vegan and organic syrups. These advanced products are becoming more popular in the global market because of their health benefits and lack of chemical pesticides, chemical fertilizers or chemical preservatives. These health benefits, along with antibiotic resistance, pesticide cutback and stronger immune system, are all reasons organic foods are growing in popularity. Organic products are also poison-free, non-GMO, and have lower chances of food-borne illnesses. AGENABON (organic sugar syrup solids), for example, helps to reduce microbiological spoilage and syneresis. This organic syrup, which is sold under the brand AGENABON, is recommended for organic and non GMO products like ice cream, sauces, ketchup, and spices.

Application Insights

Food and beverages dominated the market, with 53.4% of the total revenue. It is expected that the application segment will continue to dominate the market during the 2028 forecast. The market's largest revenue share is due to the wider application segment, which includes bakery, confectionery, dairy, soups and dressings, sauces, and beverages. The market is experiencing rapid growth due to the increased research and development activities of major industry players for the development and modification of existing products.

Market growth is being supported by the increasing demand for confectionery and bakery products, due to changing eating habits and growing urbanization. Dextrose is a good ingredient for baking products. It's easy to ferment, helps with bread making and browning, and it prevents crystallization in syrups and candies. It is therefore a good ingredient for baking products.

In confectionery applications, glucose (dextrose), is an important ingredient. It helps maintain the sweetness of sweets and enhances product quality. The most common products found in the confectionery sector that use glucose are gum and jelly products and hard candy. Market value is rising due to the increased marketing efforts by confectionary manufacturers, especially those that target children and adults.

According to forecasts, the cosmetics and personal care segment will experience the most growth between 2020-2028. This is due to the growing demand for personal and cosmetic care products by consumers in order to improve hygiene, self-esteem and well-being. To ensure safety, these products are regulated. Manufacturers are constantly looking for natural alternatives to synthetic sugars in order to meet the evolving regulations. In the EU, new products must be subject to a scientific safety assessment prior to being released on the market.

There is a new trend in cosmetics and personal care products for women. This includes new products from local brands as well as artisanal and natural products. This trend is expected to grow in a variety of cosmetics and personal products, including lipstick, skin care, and skincare. Women are increasingly looking for natural, clean, and even healthy products, especially in the area of skincare. Social media marketing techniques are supporting this trend, both in the international and local markets. This is because manufacturers can now easily connect with their target market through these platforms.
