Rising demand for functional ingredients drove the application of casein and caseinates mainly as the use in meal replacement products
- The supplements segment (particularly sports nutrition) dominated the market throughout the review period. Sports nutrition is also projected to register a CAGR of 6.75% during the forecast period (2023-2029). Being a slow-digesting protein (taking over a period of ~ 6–7 h), it can satiate for a longer period, allowing it to be used in products, such as meal replacement and weight loss products. Among all, micellar casein gained huge market penetration in the study period due to its high protein content (90% un-denatured protein) and high levels of bioavailable calcium.
- The sports nutrition segment majorly drives the casein market. An increase in awareness about the benefits of sports nutrition products has increased the growth of the sports nutrition segment in the country. However, the closure of gyms and health clubs in 2020 (22% in the US) resulted in an approximate loss of USD 29.2 billion in revenue) and suspended sports competitions during the COVID-19 pandemic, resulting in sluggish market growth.
- The food and beverage segment is the second major segment in the market. The value of the segment increased by around 25% from 2017 to 2022. The key reason for the rising application of caseins and caseinates in this segment is the ability of caseins to be digested slowly, which is highly required in products like meal replacement or weight loss products. Among the category, beverages is the fastest growing and is projected to register a CAGR of 2.73% during the forecast period. Consumers are increasingly reaching for dairy-based and other products containing functional ingredients to ward off illness or help with existing health issues. Companies are capitalizing on the trend by adding concentrated substances to their products.
United States Casein And Caseinate Market Trends
Sport/performance nutrition to witness significant growth during forecast period
- Rising health concerns and memberships across health clubs are primarily driving the sport/performance nutrition industry. From 2009 to 2019, the number of gyms in the United States rose by 39%. However, the industry witnessed a significant decline due to gym closures during the COVID-19 pandemic-induced nationwide lockdown in 2020. Health clubs are among the most popular sales channels for sports supplements. The closure of health clubs had a negative impact on the sales of supplements. In 2020, several gyms like Gold's Gym, Flywheel Sports, Town Sports International, and 24-Hour Fitness declared bankruptcy. Sales of sports nutrition products decreased in 2020, and the industry's overall Y-o-Y growth rate reduced by 3.37%.
- The importance of leading an active lifestyle is fueling the sports nutrition market. In 2021, 67% of US consumers aged six and above participated in fitness activities, of which 43.3% of consumers engaged in individual sports, 52.9% in outdoor sports, and 22.1% in team sports. Consumers are becoming more aware of the value of optimal nutrition and healthier lifestyles, all of which positively impact the sport nutrition supplements market.
- Sports/performance nutrition is the fastest-growing end-user segment in the US whey protein ingredients market, of which animal protein accounts for a major share of 91.1% in terms of value. The fitness industry is rapidly increasing the usage of animal protein ingredients, such as whey, collagen, and milk proteins, in nutritional supplements used for muscle or tissue repair after workouts. The rise in the availability of protein supplements, a growth in the number of recreational and lifestyle users of these products, and an increase in health awareness are expected to foster market growth over the forecast period.
Widespread availability of raw cow milk enables the skim milk production
- The graph depicts the production of skim cow milk in the United States. The availability of raw cow milk enables the production of skim cow milk in the United States. In 2023, 2,408,7 pounds milk was produced per cow an increase of 1.30% from 23,777 pounds in 2020. As of 2022, average number of milk cows in the United States was 9,402 heads. Milk is usually separated through various processes into components and processed into fluid beverage milk or the manufacture of other dairy products.
- Casein is the major protein in cows’ milk, and comprises about 80 % of the total protein content of which the rest, some 20 %, are the whey or serum proteins. Commercial casein is made from skim milk by one of two general methods – precipitation by acid or coagulation by rennet. As much of the fat, whey proteins, lactose and minerals as possible must be removed by multistage washing in water, as they reduce the quality of the casein as well as its keeping quality. Dried, properly produced casein has a relatively good keeping quality and is used mainly in the food and chemical industries. Rennet casein, acid casein, and co-precipitate are major types of Casein derives from skim cow milk.
- Being the world's largest single-country producer of skim milk powder the country exhibits huge potential in the skim cow milk production. U.S. manufacturers continue to boost year-on-year production of skim milk to meet the changing consumer preferences for low-fat or calorie-deficit diets. contain 5% or less moisture (by weight) and 1.5% or less milkfat (by weight). The difference is that SMP has an adjusted minimum milk protein content of 34%.
