Beijing, China Aug 15, 2023 (Issuewire.com) - According to the Tanalyze Ltd., a leading consulting firm specializing in market analysis, the global beta-carotene market is projected to rise by USD 87.9 million by 2028. The market is anticipated to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.9 percent during the forecast period. Beta-carotene, the most widely recognized carotenoid, is renowned for its vibrant orange color and is prominently present in carrots. Moreover, it can be found in tomatoes, as well as green leafy vegetables like spinach, kale, and cabbage. Primarily utilized as a food coloring agent, beta-carotene offers numerous applications in the food industry.
When incorporated into fats and oils, such as margarine, beta-carotene imparts a yellow or orange hue, depending on the concentration employed. This allows manufacturers to achieve the desired coloration in their products. Additionally, beta-carotene finds use in the beverage sector, where it is utilized to enhance the visual appeal of juice drinks. Furthermore, it is employed in the dairy industry for coloring various milk products, including cheese and yogurt.

Beyond its role as a coloring agent, beta-carotene is also valued for its provitamin A activity. Due to its ability to be converted into vitamin A within the body, it is often included in dietary supplements. Vitamin A plays a crucial role in maintaining healthy vision, supporting immune function, and promoting overall well-being.
Beta-carotene can be obtained through two primary methods: chemical synthesis and extraction from plant sources. Chemical synthesis results in nature-identical beta-carotene, while extraction allows for the production of natural beta-carotene.
Natural beta-carotene can be extracted from several plant sources, including carrots, yams, and other yellow or orange plant materials. Additionally, it is possible to extract beta-carotene from the alga Dunaliella salina or the fungi Blakeslea trispora, which are cultivated using fermentation technology.
While both the chemical synthesis and natural extraction sectors of beta-carotene production are experiencing growth, it is the natural beta-carotene market that is expanding at a faster pace. This accelerated growth can be attributed to the increasing consumer demand for natural ingredients in various products.
Consumers are increasingly seeking natural alternatives and are placing greater importance on the origin and composition of the products they consume. This demand is driving manufacturers to incorporate natural beta-carotene into their formulations as a coloring agent or nutritional supplement. Natural beta-carotene offers additional benefits beyond its vibrant color. It is a rich source of provitamin A, which is converted into vitamin A in the body. Vitamin A is essential for maintaining healthy vision, supporting immune function, and promoting overall well-being. - Request a Sample Report
