The global Pectinase market size is predicted to grow from US$ 367 million in 2025 to US$ 459 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.8% from 2025 to 2031.
Pectinase is a light yellow powdery substance, which refers to the enzymes that decompose the main component of plants - pectin. Pectinase is widely distributed in higher plants and microorganisms, mainly through liquid submerged fermentation and purification to produce pectin biological enzyme preparations in colleges and universities. It is generally used to make some beverages such as wine, fruit juice, vegetables and other beverages and plays a significant role in food processing. The principle of action of pectinase is mainly by decomposing pectin and decomposing it into two components: oligogalacturonic acid and galacturonic acid. Pectinase can be used in the brewing of vegetable juice, fruit juice and wine to improve the juice yield.
Novozymes, DuPont (IFF) and DSM are the top 3 companies in global pectinase market and account for about 60% of total market share. Geographically speaking, Europe holds about 40% of global market share, followed by China with about 20% share. In terms of type, Pectinesterase segment holds an main share of about 30%. In terms of application, food and juice industry segment accounts for over 50% of the global share.
The driving factors of the pectinase market mainly include the following aspects:
Technological progress and R&D innovation
The rapid development of biotechnology:
The progress of biotechnology has promoted the development of new pectinases and improved production efficiency and product quality. Through advanced technologies such as genetic engineering and protein engineering, pectinase genes can be directed to obtain pectinases with special catalytic functions and high stability to meet the market's demand for specific functions.
The optimization of fermentation processes and intelligent management also increase the yield and purity of pectinase and reduce production costs.
Improvement of extraction and refining technology:
The application of new extraction process and refining technology makes the quality of pectinase products more stable and the cost more controllable. This helps to reduce the production cost of pectinase products and improve market competitiveness.
Market demand growth and diversification
Continued growth of the food and beverage industry:
Pectinase plays an important role in the production process of food and beverages such as juice, jam, jelly, etc., and can improve the taste and texture of the product. As consumers' demand for healthy and natural foods increases, the expansion of the juice market has driven the growth of demand for pectinase.
At the same time, pectinase is also widely used in the production process of foods such as candy and biscuits to improve the texture and taste of the product.
Expanded application in the pharmaceutical and cosmetics industry:
The application of pectinase in the pharmaceutical and cosmetics industry is also gradually increasing. For example, in pharmaceutical preparations, pectinase can improve the texture and stability of drugs; in skin care products, pectinase can improve the quality and effect of products.
Potential demand in the feed industry:
In the feed industry, pectinase can be added to animal feed to help animals better digest and absorb nutrients in food and improve the nutritional value of feed. With the development of animal husbandry, the demand for pectinase in the feed industry will gradually increase.
