Summary of the Report

Global lactase market was worth USD 185.2 million in 2019. It is expected to grow at a 5.1% compound annual growth rate (CAGR), between 2020 and 2027. The market will grow due to factors such as rising demand for lactose free milk products, and product innovation & development in other areas. The main use of lactase in food and beverage is as a dairy enzyme. It makes dairy products lactose free by reducing or eliminating lactose. One of the main factors driving product demand is the increasing incidence of lactose intolerance around the world.

Due to rising food intolerances and allergies, the U.S. market is expected to experience high growth. The country's market growth will be boosted by large investments made by companies like DuPont Nutrition & Health, Amano Enzyme USA Co. Ltd. to develop new lactase enzymes to make cream spreads and milk-based icecreams.

Intermountain Healthcare published a 2017 article that stated that over 65% of the world's population has lactase deficiencies. This is a condition that occurs naturally in the intestines of both children and adults. Lactase deficiency is a condition that prevents the body from absorbing lactose found in milk. It can cause diarrhea, bloating and flatulence. To avoid problems with the gastrointestinal tract, this factor will likely lead to an increase in consumption of lactase-based supplementation.

The sugar in dairy products is converted to easily digestible sugars by lactase. The market growth is expected to be boosted by rising consumer awareness regarding overall health and well-being.

The market growth for lactase is expected to be limited by the rising demand of plant-based dairy products like almond, soy, and coconut milk over the next few decades. Due to the lack of cholesterol and lactose, products such as vegan yogurt, nut butter, nut cream and cheese will see significant growth, along with the growing vegan population.

Source Insights

In 2019, the yeast source segment made up more than 44% of global revenue. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has classified lactose-fermenting yeasts such as Kluyveromyces marixianus and Guehomycespullulans under Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS). Chemical or substance. The yeast-based lactase can be used to make dietary supplements and food products.

The controlled fermentation of yeasts yields lactase. In this case, the?–glycosidic link in D-lactose gets hydrolyzed with?–galactosidase to make D-glucose or D-galactose. Lactose hydrolysis reduces the freezing point of dairy products and increases the sweetness. Market growth is expected to be accelerated by the availability of lactose free products such as milk powder, butter spreads, and ice cream.

Research and development are ongoing in the area of hydrolysis of lactose using other sources of lactase enzymes such as bacteria and fungi. The product has many benefits including stability and high activity. It can also be used in the food processing and dietary supplement industries to cleave lactose.

Additionally, the acidic pH range for lactase obtained from fungi is 2.2 to 5.4. Fungal lactase can be used to hydrolyse acidic whey. The enzymes derived from Kluyveromyces Lactis, Aspergillus and Kluyveromyces fragileis (Sacchoramyces frailis) species are extremely stable. Over the next few years, there will be new opportunities for global markets due to the increasing R&D on these enzyme sources.

Application Insights

Food & Beverage applications dominated the market, accounting for over 60% of global revenue in 2019. Market growth is expected to be driven by rising health awareness and increasing incidences of lactase-non-persistence. The segment's growth was aided by the increasing consumption of high-quality, natural foods with natural flavor and flavour. The lactase enzymes are catalysts for the breakdown of lactose (a disaccharide), into smaller compounds such as galactose or glucose.

Newer dairy products are being launched by dairy manufacturers to expand their customer base. They are low in fat and sugar and high in vitamins, fibers, proteins, and vitamins. The consumption of lactase-based supplements is expected to increase due to rising awareness about digestive health issues. The introduction of new delivery methods, such as fast-act chewables and strength capslets, to help prevent digestive problems like gas, diarrhea, stomach ache and nausea, is expected to increase product demand for dietary supplements.

Form Insights

The market leader was powder-based lactase, which accounted for over 64.0% of global volume in 2019. Non-toxic biological enzyme lactase is powdered and meets the Food Chemical Codex and Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives specifications. This allows the product to be used in various food, dietary supplement, and food applications.

According to the National Center for Biotechnology Information's 2017 paper, over 20% of people who eat a Western-style diet have digestive problems. This makes indigestion one of the most serious health issues.

Good digestion is essential for maximizing energy, maintaining a healthy immune system and maintaining nutrient intake. Market growth is expected to be driven by rising demand for lactase capsule, chewable, or tablets to prevent flatulence, vomiting, gas and other symptoms caused by lactose intolerance.

Although liquid lactase has a lower stability than its powder counterpart, it is more functional and active. This product is used extensively in pharmaceutical applications to make syrups, drops, and tonics. The liquid-based lactase speeds up biological, metabolic and chemical reactions in human bodies by optimizing a reaction's efficiency. This makes pharmaceutical products more suitable to human consumption.

Regional Insights

Europe dominated the global market in 2019, accounting for 48% of global revenue. Europe has a well-developed food and beverage processing industry, which means that there is a high demand for dairy enzymes. Technological advancements and the presence key manufacturers like Chr. are also important factors. Hansen Holding A/S in Europe is one of the key factors driving the region's market. The region's positive outlook on health and nutrition has resulted in an increase in per-capita expenditures for lactase-based nutritional supplements.

Due to the increasing economic importance of lactase enzyme in the past decade, the Asia Pacific region is expected to grow the fastest from 2020 to 2027. The Asia Pacific market has new opportunities due to rapid industrialization and the development of the food and beverage sector, particularly in China, India and Vietnam.

A staggering 80% of Central Asian adults and 90-100% in East Asia suffer from impaired lactose digestion. Denmark is only 2%. Due to the large number of Asians suffering from lactose deficiency the demand for lactose free dairy products will increase which should support market growth.

Market Share Insights & Key Companies

The market leaders are concentrated in North America and Europe, and they are looking for opportunities in emerging economies to expand their market share. Chr. Hansen Holding A/S focuses on growing its business in Latin America and the Middle East & Africa (MEA), thereby reducing dependence on the European market. Major companies are taking strategic steps to increase their market share, including product launches and acquisitions.

DuPont Nutrition & Biosciences (N&B), introduced Danisco Bonlacta in July 2020. This new lactase enzyme product was developed to create a nutritional profile for lactose-free milk products. This product was launched for North American markets and is a thermophilic lactase type that can withstand high temperatures. The market for lactase includes:
