Market Trends of Africa Food Emulsifiers Industry
This section covers the major market trends shaping the MEA Food Emulsifiers Market according to our research experts:
Meat Application Holds Great Potential
Meat and seafood product emulsifiers make the meat soft and help in improving the texture, reduce purge, minimize oxidation, cooking yields, effectively bind natural juices, and stabilize the product consistency. Their common application includes products, such as beef, pork, fish, poultry, and seafood. Companies, such as Palsgaard have developed and tested a series of mono-diglycerides and distilled mono-diglycerides which offer numerous benefits in hot processed meat emulsions, such as liver patties and liver sausages. Emulsifiers in this segment are solely for hot processed meat. The rising demand from the consumers to devour ready-to-eat food products having high quality and flavor is anticipated to drive the usage of emulsifiers altogether.
Saudi Arabia Drives the Emulsifier Market
The Saudi Arabia is one of the largest consumers of meat products in the world and holds the highest economy of middle East. Processed and frozen meat and seafood holds a fragmented market in the company, in which, emulsifiers are added to maintain its texture. The Saudi Arabian bakery industry has registered an increased application of natural emulsifiers, such as Gelatin and Lecithin, which acts as an anticaking agent in the bakery products. Due to growing health concerns in the country, only natural emulsifiers are preferred.
