Vitamins and minerals are the most common ingredients encapsulated for functional food and dietary supplements.
Vitamins are functional ingredients that are used in food owing to their specific nutritional properties for varied human body parts. Thus, a targeted and controlled release of vitamins often becomes important, when added as a food ingredient. Thus, encapsulation is majorly adopted for vitamins for its targeted effect. Following vitamins, there has been a growing trend in the encapsulation of flavors to achieve controlled and prolonged release of taste and fragrance of the ingredient.
The market for dietary supplements is projected to record the highest CAGR during the forecast period.
The demand for dietary supplements is on the rise in developed and developing countries among the millennial population. Vitamins, enzymes, and minerals are some of the major constituents of dietary supplements, which require targeted delivery. Also, industry experts foresee the adoption rate for dietary supplements to rise the highest in the coming five years.
Polysaccharides are the most preferred shell phase for food encapsulation.
The polysaccharides segment accounted for the largest market for shell material in 2018 and is projected to follow the same trend through 2025. Polysaccharides are a composition of repeating monosaccharide units connected by glycoside bonds. Polysaccharides are easily chemically modifiable and provide numerous textures and viscosities. Owing to their enormous molecular structure and ability to entrap bio-actives, polysaccharides are considered the most-suitable building blocks for delivery systems.
