根据其纯度和用途,乳酸有不同的等级。预计在预测期内,乳酸在药品、食品和饮料各种最终用途领域的使用将增加对该产品的需求,特别是在亚太地区等新兴地区。乳酸的这些不同的功能特性和根据国际规则的监管核准是乳酸市场的主要驱动力。
PLA 是一种生物分解性的聚合物和可堆肥的热塑性塑料,由发酵过程中产生的乳酸等可再生资源製成。 PLA 主要由乳酸製成。美国食品药物管理局已宣布该化学品为 GRAS。这意味着该化学品在食品业具有巨大的市场潜力。也可由化学合成或发酵法製得。
由于人们越来越喜欢即食食品,需要发酵过程的加工食品在发酵过程中往往含有乳酸。乳酸广泛用于发酵饮料,如饮用型优格和汤匙式酸奶,越来越受到消费者的欢迎。这项因素鼓励製造商将乳酸和乳酸衍生成分纳入乳製品食品和饮料中。这主要是由于乳酸在各种乳製品中具有赋予质地和增强风味的特性。因此,乳酸在世界各地的乳製品中被广泛使用。
乳酸因其多种功能特性而成为食品和饮料产品中的重要成分。乳酸在食品和饮料领域的广泛应用以及食品酸味剂提供的各种功能优势正在推动市场发展。食品和饮料行业的稳步扩张正在推动该行业的发展。随着亚太地区消费行为和经济发展的演变,该地区正在成为食品和饮料行业前景广阔的市场,食品酸味剂的使用不断增加。乳酸也广泛应用于保鲜产业。它在欧洲、美国、澳大利亚和纽西兰被允许作为食品添加剂。因此,在各种食品製造过程中增加乳酸的使用可能会增加全球的需求。
随着乳酸作为食品添加剂的使用不断增加,亚太地区对乳酸的需求正在迅速增加。肉类和其他食品应用中对乳酸的需求不断增长、低成本原材料的供应、技术创新以及该地区领先製造公司的大力支持是市场的主要驱动因素。乳酸通常用于肉类工业,以减少基于细菌的病原体,保护肉类免受污染。糖蜜、甘蔗、淀粉和其他碳水化合物等製造商原料的低成本使该行业受益匪浅,因为它立即降低了最终产品的成本。在该地区运营的主要公司,例如河南金丹乳酸,正致力于将乳酸作为食品加工的关键成分之一。
乳酸市场本质上是高度一体化的。市场主要竞争对手有嘉吉、Corbion NV、河南金丹乳酸科技、杜邦内穆尔等。由于大宗商品价格的波动,主要竞争对手更愿意投资新产品开发和行销策略以维持自己的地位。大多数主要企业都投资研发以开发新技术和创新技术。
The Lactic Acid Market size is estimated at USD 511.11 million in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 624.54 million by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 4.09% during the forecast period (2024-2029).
Lactic acid comes in various grades, depending on its purity and intended use. The use of lactic acid in different end-use sectors, including pharmaceuticals and food and beverages, is expected to boost demand for this product over the forecast period, particularly in emerging regions like Asia-Pacific. These varied functional qualities of lactic acid and regulatory approval by international rules are the primary drivers for the lactic acid market.
PLA is a biodegradable polymer and compostable thermoplastic made from renewable sources such as lactic acid produced through fermentation processes. PLA is chiefly made from lactic acid. The US Food and Drug Administration has declared this chemical GRAS, which means it has significant market potential in the food business. It can also be made through chemical synthesis or fermentation.
With an increasing inclination toward convenience food, processed food that requires fermentation processes tends to include lactic acid in the fermentation process. Lactic acid is widely used in fermented beverages such as drinkable and spoonable yogurts, which are becoming popular among consumers. This factor has encouraged the manufacturers to incorporate lactic acid and derived ingredients in dairy-based food and beverages, mainly due to the texture-imparting and flavor-enhancing nature of lactic acid in various dairy-based products. Hence, lactic acid is extensively used in dairy-based products across the world.
Lactic acid is a crucial ingredient in food and beverage products due to its diverse functional qualities. Lactic acid's wide range of applications in the food and beverage sector and the variety of functional benefits offered by food acidulants drive the market. The industry is boosted by solid expansion in the food and beverage sector. With evolving consumer behavior and economic development in Asia-Pacific, the region emerges as a prospective market for the food and beverage industry to increase the use of food acidulants. Lactic acid is also widely used in the preservation industry. It is permitted as a food additive in Europe, the United States, Australia, and New Zealand. Hence, the increasing usage of lactic acid across various food manufacturing processes could possibly increase the demand across the world.
With the rising use of lactic acid as a food additive, the demand for lactic acid in Asia-Pacific is rapidly increasing. Increased demand for lactic acid in meat and other foods applications, availability of low-cost raw materials, technological innovations, and strong backing from large manufacturing businesses in the region are the main drivers for the market. Usually, lactic acid is used in the meat-based industry to reduce bacterial-based pathogens, hence keeping the meat safe from contamination. The low cost of raw materials for manufacturers, such as molasses, sugarcane, starch, and other carbohydrates, has significantly benefited the sector as it immediately decreases the final product's cost. Major players operating in the region, such as Henan Jindan Lactic Acid Co. Ltd, are focusing on incorporating lactic acid as one of the key ingredients in food processing.
The lactic acid market is highly consolidated in nature. The leading competitors in the market are Cargill Incorporated, Corbion NV, Henan Jindan Lactic Acid Technology Co. Ltd, and DuPont de Nemour Inc. Due to commodity price instability, the big competitors prefer to invest in new product development and marketing strategies to maintain their positions. Most significant firms are investing in R&D to develop new and innovative technology.
