Lentil Protein Market Share, Size, Trends, Industry Analysis Report, By Product Type (Protein Isolates, Protein Concentrates, Flour, and Other Product Types); By Nature; By End Use; By Region; Segment Forecast, 2023 – 2032
The global lentil protein market size is expected to reach USD 213.48 million by 2032, according to a new study by Polaris Market Research. The report “Lentil Protein Market Share, Size, Trends, Industry Analysis Report, By Product Type (Protein Isolates, Protein Concentrates, Flour, and Other Product Types); By Nature; By End Use; By Region; Segment Forecast, 2023 - 2032” gives a detailed insight into current market dynamics and provides analysis on future market growth.
The exponentially rising adoption of vegan and vegetarian diets across the globe due to ethical, environmental, and health reasons and the emergence of lentil protein as a valuable addition to these diets as it provides a complete source of plant-based protein are prominent factors boosting the growth of the market. In addition, the rapidly surging focus and marketing efforts of major food companies, retailers, and health organizations towards educating consumers regarding the numerous benefits of lentil protein and the introduction of new and improved with enhanced characteristics are likely to influence the market drastically.
For instance, in July 2023, Kemin Industries launched its new fat-block topical solution named ‘InnoBLQ’ in North America. The new products will be available in two different forms, including lentil protein and pea protein, and can be used depending on the application.
The rapidly increasing technological innovations in extraction, purification, and product development, which are likely to improve and enhance characteristics of lentil protein products with enhanced functionalities and better sensory attributes and surge in the number of people seeking products with transparent and clean labels indicating natural and minimally processed ingredients, have paved the way for higher product adoption across the world.
Furthermore, there has been a rising prevalence of innovations in agriculture, including precision farming techniques and sustainable cultivation practices, which have significantly improved lentil yields and quality, addressed environmental concerns, and supported market growth. Besides this, there has been a growing exploration of several encapsulation methods in recent years to protect lentil protein from degradation and to improve its stability during storage and processing, thereby influencing the market at a rapid pace.
