United Kingdom Food Additives Market Analysis

The UK food additives market is projected to record a CAGR of 3.02% over the next five years.

The UK food additive market is significantly driven by growing demand for convenience food, primarily benefiting from additives like preservatives, sweeteners, etc. Preservatives are key additives in the convenience food manufacturing process to increase the products' shelf-life. The demand for several functional beverages has been increasing among consumers, which is anticipated to boost the demand for specialty food additives, like stevia, specialty flavors, and acidulants. The market has witnessed a growing demand for natural food items and beverages rising rapidly across the region, accelerating the country's demand for natural and clean-label food additives.

A growing number of health-conscious consumers are looking to avoid synthetic additives, and an increasing number of retailers are adding synthetic colors, enzymes, flavors, and thickeners to their list of unacceptable ingredients. The demand for clean labels and organic and natural ingredients is increasing among consumers. The market players in the country are adopting new strategies like mergers, acquisitions, and partnerships to expand their product reach and bring innovation. For instance, in June 2022, Givaudan and Manus Bio, a biomanufacturer of natural products, announced the launch of BioNootkatone, a sustainable, natural, clean-label citrus flavor ingredient. BioNootkatone provides a refreshing, natural citrus taste that can be used in a variety of food and beverage applications.

Increasing Demand for Convenience Food

The increasing demand for convenience and processed food, such as ready-to-eat foods, ready-to-drink beverages, snacks, frozen meals, and other foods, is one of the significant factors driving the food additives market. With the rising urbanization, growing middle-class population, increasing number of working women, and rising disposable income, the developed and developing regions worldwide are witnessing a rising demand for processed and packaged food, thereby increasing the need for food additives in the market. Food additives like emulsifiers, flavor enhancers, thickeners, enzymes, and other additives are used in food products like dairy and bakery products.

Sugar Substitutes Hold Largest Share

Consumers in the country are becoming aware of the benefits of healthy food consumption and opting to consume organic, clean-label, and natural-based food products. Due to this factor, the region's demand for natural ingredients like food sweeteners is increasing. Consumers are aware of the nutritional content of the processed products they consume. Stevia, xylitol, and other natural sweeteners are plant sugars made from organic and natural sources. They do not add calories but have a taste like regular sugar. Consumers are becoming more aware of the adverse health effects associated with the consumption of various synthetic food additives, such as obesity, diabetes, and hypertension. Therefore, the government has banned many synthetic additives like artificial sweeteners for use in food and beverages. In July 2022, Sweegen Inc. launched Bestevia LQ, a line of liquid stevia-based sweeteners. The company claims that these sweeteners can be used in products like confectionary products, carbonated drinks, dessert toppings, and concentrated syrups.
