A number of factors, such as the surging environmental concerns, escalating demand for protease and carbohydrase in the food and beverages industry, booming demand for bioethanol, rising focus on research and development (R&D), accelerating industrialization, and increasing advancements in the nutraceutical sector will drive the industrial enzymes market growth during the forecast period (2021–2030). According to P&S Intelligence, the market generated revenue of $5.7 billion in 2020. Moreover, the advancements in enzyme engineering and green chemistry and introduction of genetically engineered enzymes will facilitate the market growth.
One of the key drivers for the market is the burgeoning demand for bioethanol owing to the rising environmental concerns and depleting fossil fuel reserves. Ethanol derived from biomass can be utilized as an octane enhancer, substitute, and extender for conventional motor fuels, such as kerosene, diesel, and gasoline, in countries with surplus agricultural produce. Additionally, biofuels can be used as a substitute for toxic oxygenates in petroleum fuels, owing to which there will be a rapid surge in the production of biogas and biodiesel and a significant reduction in air pollution levels.
Currently, companies operating in the industrial enzymes market are involving in product launches and acquisitions to consolidate their position. For instance, in December 2019, Seqens SAS introduced the 7 SEQENZYM kits for molecular synthesis transformations by the screening of enzymes and facilitating rapid assessment. Furthermore, in March 2021, Novozymes A/S completed the acquisition of the data science platform of Biota Technology Inc. to amplify its sales in the consumer health industry and embolden its microbiome R&D capabilities, which are focused on probiotic platforms.
Geographically, North America generated the highest revenue in the industrial enzymes market in 2020, and it is expected to retain its dominance throughout the forecast period. This can be primarily attributed to the surging technological advancements, soaring number of clinical trials to develop potent therapeutics, flourishing food and beverage processing sector, rising implementation of biofuel production policies, and increasing use of high-performance items such as biopolymers, biofuels, and processed food in the region.
Therefore, the soaring need for bioethanol and mounting demand for multifunctional enzymes will accelerate the market growth.
