The Global Meat Glue Market size is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 3.2% during the forecast period, due to the increased number of processed food items and consumer preference towards convenience foods. The increasing demand for meat glue from developing countries such as China, Brazil, India is also driving the growth of this industry globally. Global meat glue is used in the food industry as it can be easily dissolved in water and helps impart flavor and texture into processed foods. It also acts as an adhesive for meats such as fish fillets or other high-protein products that are difficult to stick together with traditional methods like breading or marinating. Furthermore, microbial-based meat glues have seen increasing demand owing to their low-cost production process compared to animal-derived alternatives.
Meat Glue, or transglutaminase, is a protein that comes from animal blood and can be used as an ingredient in processed food products. Its key benefit over other ingredients is its ability to bind together multiple pieces of raw meat and form a cohesive mass. This allows manufacturers to turn the individual slices into larger portions for customers without using more materials. It was invented by Japanese scientists in 1968 but it did not become popular until 2001 when Japan’s Kobe beef farmers began using it to make their prized steak cuts affordable on a wider scale.
On the basis of Type, the market is segmented into Animal, Plant, and Microbial. The most common type is animal-derived which makes up 60% share of the total global consumption because it offers better adhesion properties with high water resistance than other types. Plant-based meat glue also used extensively across different regions owing to its low-cost nature more so in developing countries where they have a higher preference towards this product when compared with developed nations like Europe or North America. Meat glue based on microbial enzymes is another type that has been gaining traction over recent years.
Animal meat glue is a product made from beef or pork in the form of gelatin, salt, and water. It can be used to bind pieces of carcass together for sale at the market. Animal-based protein has less as much fat content than plant-based proteins such as soybean or wheat gluten which means that it will not break down under heat while cooking.
Animal meat glue has been classified as a sticky substance that binds proteins together in order to form a piece of meat with more or less uniform thickness throughout its length. It can be produced from animals such as pigs or cows for use in processed meats including sausages or hamburgers; it can also be made synthetically using plant-based ingredients such as wheat gluten protein.
Plant-based meat glue is an edible adhesive that can be used to bind together varieties of plant protein. It has been described as a vegan alternative to animal-derived collagen, which is typically found in the digestive tracts and skin of pigs or cows. The product's primary ingredient includes soy proteins such as textured vegetable protein (TVP). While TVP by itself does not have much culinary appeal on its own, it becomes more appetizing when mixed with other ingredients like olive oil, garlic powder, and onion powder. Depending on how strong you want your mixture to be, different amounts of water are added before kneading everything into a doughy consistency. This process also allows for any flavors desired - from Indian spices to Italian seasonings.
Microbial meat glue is a byproduct of the fermentation process. It can be made from various types of microbes, such as Actinomucor elegans and Aspergillus oryzae. These are two species that have been used extensively for centuries to make soy sauce, miso paste, and other fermented foods. Microbial animal proteins derived from microbial enzymes are similar in quality to those obtained through conventional methods but they provide much more flexibility in terms of how the final product will look like because they do not originate from slaughtered animals (except during the first stage). The technologies developed so far involve extraction with hot water followed by centrifugation steps at low speed which results in an improved yield compared with traditional procedures based on the enzyme.
On the basis of Application, the market is segmented into meat, fish, and processed food. The market for animal-derived meat glues is expected to grow at the fastest pace during the forecast period because of its various applications in this segment as well as increased consumer preference towards these types of products.
On the basis of Region, the market is segmented into North America, Latin American Countries, Europe, and the Asia Pacific. The market in the European region is expected to grow at a higher rate during the forecast period due to its increasing population as well as per capita consumption of processed food products which in turn drive sales of meat glues for processing purposes.
The North American market is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period due to its large population and increasing demand for processed food products.
