Market Definition
Infant formula contains a variety of nutrients that are fed to babies for their overall development, such as carbohydrates, fats, proteins, vitamins, minerals, and others (linoleic acid, prebiotic, and others). Although doctors recommend exclusive breastfeeding for babies under six months old, infant formula can be used as an alternative because it contains similar nutrients.
Global Protein in Infant Formula Market Dynamics
Drivers
- Growing consumer affluence and an increasing working population
Rising protein consumption as an ingredient in various applications such as growing up milk and specialty formula is expected to boost overall protein in infant formula market demand in the coming years. Proteins are used in infant formula ingredients to create alternative hypoallergenic protein foods for infants with milk allergies, coeliac disease, and gluten intolerance. The market includes a diverse range of products ranging from baby food to infant formula. Growing consumer affluence and an increasing working population among women benefit the industry's growth.
- Improved composition of nutrients and quality is creating market demand
When manufacturers consider infant formula, the amino acid composition of the protein formula must be considered, as essential amino acid serum concentrations must not be lower than those found in breastfed milk. Furthermore, the growing demand from the infant formula industry is prompting milk protein manufacturers to consider adding bioactive proteins to the total protein content, while also regulating insulin, serum amino acids, and nitrogen levels to ensure the product is absorbed properly by infants.
Opportunities
The rising population growth rate around the world is a vital factor driving the protein in infant formula market. Other factors driving the protein in infant formula market include an increasing middle-class population, rising disposable incomes, and increased e-commerce sales. Technological and modernization advancements, as well as the wide variety of protein in infant formula products, are likely to create new opportunities for the protein in infant formula market.
