Protein Hydrolysates Market Overview
Protein Hydrolysates Market size is valued at $844.2m by 2019, and is estimated to reach $1,216.1m by 2025, growing at CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period of 2020-2025. The Protein Hydrolysates Market growth rate is attributed to the rising demand for protein-based dietary supplements and infant nutrition as they are easier to absorb and digest hence, fostering the market growth. Protein Hydrolysates are basically potential source of bioactive peptides. Protein hydrolysates are mixtures of amino acids, oligopeptides, polypeptides that are manufactured from protein sources using partial hydrolysis. It is a type of protein that is partly hydrolyzed or digested be consuming, which makes it easier to absorb or digest. Protein hydrolysate is available in form of solid and liquid. It is derived from plants, animals, or milk products. Protein hydrolysates are used in solid and liquid food products listed in special diets or for the patients in order to provide them additional nutritional diet. It is also commonly used for the patients that are unable to take protein form their regular food. From wide application in manufacturing of dietary supplements, baby food and sports nutrition to the surge in demand for plant-based and animal-based protein hydrolysates, especially from sports industry to increased R&D investments by governmental bodies to overcome limitations of high cost coupled with the rising demand for healthy and nutrient enriched animal feed with growing consciousness about livestock health should stimulate the demand of protein hydrolysate for livestock feed application is anticipated to propel the Protein Hydrolysates Market during the forecast period 2020-2025.

Key Takeaways
- North America dominated the Protein Hydrolysates Market with a share of 34.4% in the year 2019.
- The factors such as growing demand for plant-based and animal-based protein hydrolysates in the sports industry and high usage of protein in infant nutrition are amongst the major factor projected to impel growth of Protein Hydrolysates Market.
- Growing retail and E-commerce sector, coupled with availability of various protein hydrolysate based products are the key factors owing to the growth in the segment during forecast period 2020-2025.
Product Type - Segment Analysis
Milk segment of the animal protein hydrolysates held the largest share in the market owing its multifunctional characteristic, which aids its application in sports, nutraceutical, and infant nutrition over other hydrolysates. Also, these protein hydrolysates have an optimized nutritional value and are hydrolyzed by enzymes while keeping the same nutritional value. Milk protein hydrolysates are used for the substitution of native proteins in infant and adult foods and beverages owing to their decreased allergenicity. The demand for milk protein hydrolysates has increased owing to the rise in the consumption of protein-rich products by the health-conscious population. Therefore, vendors of milk protein can endorse their products using various health claims, which, in turn, are driving the growth of the market. Moreover, these products are used by individuals with specific nutritional requirements linked to athletic performance, infant development, food protein allergies and phenylketonuria (PKU). These proteins are more easily digested and have substantially reduced immunological reactivity's.
Application Type- Segment Analysis
Based on Application type, infant nutrition segment held the major share of the market in terms of revenue and is estimated to grow with a CAGR of 7.5%. The reason is set to be attributed to the fact that the need for protein in building and proper development of infant tissues. Moreover, protein deficiency leads to malnutrition, which can be attributed to the steep increase in the use of hydrolysates in infant formula. Protein hydrolysates are also meant for babies who can’t tolerate cow’s milk or soy-based formulae. Extensively hydrolyzed formulas are an option for babies who have a protein allergy. Hydrolyzed proteins are closer to the size or breast milk proteins, making it easier for the baby to digest while still teaching their stomach and intestines how to handle protein thereby, increasing the chances, is anticipated to further expand the market over the projection period of 2020-2025.
By Geography - Segment Analysis
North America is the major region dominating the Protein Hydrolysates market with revenue of $ 290.8m in 2019 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 5.3% during the forecast period of 2020-2025 to generate revenue of $ 392.9m in 2025. There is a rise in the usage owing to a well-developed food industry and increasing popularity regarding the health benefits in the region. Also, the substantial presence of end-user manufacturing companies such as Mead Johnson and Hill Pharma, among others, is likely to create massive demand for the product in the region. Furthermore, the high cost of production leads to increased product cost of the final products, which is borne by the consumer. As the purchasing power of the consumers is high, there is increased acceptability of the product in developed countries. The increasing R&D by the key players present in this region and supportive policies is also helping in the growth of the market in this region. According to a report published by the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey of the US, 69% of the infants who are fed regular milk or formula consume cow’s milk formula, and 12.0% consume soy formula with protein hydrolysate as ingredients, thereby affecting the market growth directly. Presence of favorable government regulations in the U.S. is estimated to enhance the growth of the market.
However, Asia-Pacific region is estimated to grow at a fastest CAGR of 8.1% during the forecast period 2020-2025. This is owing to the Increasing consumer awareness, and disposable income are driving the Protein hydrolysate market in the Asia Pacific region.
Drivers – Protein Hydrolysates Market
- Growing Awareness Regarding Protein Diet for Developing Health & Immunity:
With the current pandemic situation, and with rising awareness on the importance of increasing immunity, more consumers are buying protein based supplements to improve their health and immunity. The rise in demand has driven the need for ingredients such as protein hydrolysates immensely. According to a survey, published in Research Gate, of the total individuals attested to having consumed dietary supplements in their life, protein supplements were the most consumed form of dietary supplement. Increasing awareness among people on the importance of protein based supplements to maintain health is set to accelerate the market growth. Increasing health awareness, leading to the consumption of functional and nutritional food among consumers is driving growth of global protein hydrolysates market.
Challenges – Protein Hydrolysates Market
- High selling price and R&D Costs are High:
The major challenge for the market is that as protein hydrolysates have a huge potential use as a protein source for human consumption, but their production steps involve dehydration that requires high energy supply and is, consequently, very expensive. Another process known as Enzymatic Hydrolysis also is costly owing to the high costs of industrial enzymes. Along with this, the requirements of special treatment to deactivate the enzymatic hydrolysis, coupled with difficulty of the process to obtain hydrolysates of particular molecular mass are adding to this cost as well. Moreover, this also increases the cost of end products and leads to rise in cheaper counterfeit food products increasing in the market, and further impacting the market. Hence, the high cost of R&D and production challenge the market over the forecast period 2020-2025.
