MARKET INTRODUCTION
Carrageenans or carrageenins belong to the family of linear sulfated polysaccharides, which are extracted from red edible seaweeds. Carrageenans are extensively used in the food industry as a gelling, thickening, and stabilizing agent. Carrageenans have main application in dairy products and meat products, due to their strong binding properties to food proteins. There are three main varieties of carrageenan, including kappa, iota, and lambda, which differ in their degree of sulfation present in it. Kappa-carrageenan possesses one sulfate group per disaccharide, iota-carrageenan has two, and lambda-carrageenan has a three sulfate group. Carrageenan is used as a vegetarian and vegan alternative to gelatin in some applications or may be used to replace gelatin in confectionery. Kappa forms a strong and rigid gel in the presence of potassium ions and reacts with dairy proteins. It is sourced mainly from the species Kappaphycus alvarezii. Iota forms soft gels in the presence of calcium ions. It is produced mainly from the species called Eucheuma denticulatum. Lambda does not gel and is used to thicken dairy products..
MARKET DYNAMICS
The carrageenan market has witnessed significant growth owing to factors such as growing applications in the food industry, pharmaceutical industry, cosmetics industry, and others. In food processing industries, carrageenan works as a thickener, stabilizer, gelling agent, and others. The demand for carrageenan is increasing due to the rise in demand for processed foods among consumers globally. Also, increasing demand for natural and organic ingredients among consumers is again influencing the market growth for carrageenan. However, various health effects associated with carrageenan, such as the possibility to trigger bloating, inflammation, skin allergy, may lead to limited usage of carrageenan by food industries, which in turn may hamper the market growth for carrageenan. Nevertheless, with the steady growth in the food processing industries, the market players have opportunities to invest in this market.
