Feb 2018| FOD020E| BCC Publishing

Report Highlights

The global market for fermentation-derived fine chemicals will grow from $24.0 billion in 2017 to nearly $28.4 billion by 2022 with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.4% for the period of 2017-2022.

Report Includes

  • 119 data tables and 7 additional tables
  • Descriptions of the latest developments in major fermentation products
  • Analyses of global market trends, with data from 2016, estimates for 2017, and projections of compound annual growth rates (CAGRs) through 2022
  • Insight into the interrelationship between ethanol and other carbohydrate-using industries
  • A look at changes in the industry's structure, contrasting actual production with installed capacities
  • Comprehensive company profiles of major players in the industry, including Adisseo (Bluestar Group), Charoen Pokphand Foods PLC., J.D. Heiskell & Co., Novus International and Weston Milling Animal Nutrition

Report Scope

After categorizing the main fermentation products, the report describes each individual product, reviews industry developments, makes estimates of current volumes produced and consumed, and finally considers price trends and industry structure.

Building on carbohydrate conversion rates and production sites, the demand for carbohydrates is estimated for specific regions and contrasted with availability. Those regions and products that may experience tighter production due to restrained raw materials are identified.

This report does not cover every industrial product that is fermented. Most of the products covered in this report have been on the market for years, but the examples of astaxanthin and beta-carotene demonstrate how difficult it is to introduce such products with sustainability. Few recently introduced industrial fermentation products have become mainstream practices, and many new products ultimately disappear.

The report concludes with a review of the most important companies active in the fermentation processes.

Report Highlights

  • The global market for fermentation products was estimated at $14.1 billion in 2004 and is expected to rise at an average annual growth rate (AAGR) of 4.7% to $17.8 billion in 2009.
  • Crude antibiotics are estimated at $5 billion in 2004. This is approximately the same value as in 1998, with volumes increased but prices eroded substantially.
  • Amino acids are the second largest and nearly the fastest growing category, and estimated at $3.5 billion in 2004. The market in 2009 is expected to reach nearly $5 billion.
  • Organic acids represent the third largest category and is dominated by citric acid. The total market value will rise to $3.0 in 2009.
  • Among the rest, only xanthan will see anaemic growth due to price erosion.

Report Highlights

  • The total value of the world fermentation production is estimated at $4.8 billion. By 2004, the total value should be about $4.9 billion. In 2004, the fermentation world will look not much different than today in terms of capacity or in terms of product output or value. Much growth cannot be expected. Therefore, the whole fermentation industry is facing an unclear future.
  • In terms of value, amino acids, organic acids, and enzymes, as well as antibiotics, are of approximately equal size with about $1 billion each. In terms of capacity (and this serves as a parameter for the production per unit of fermenter size), antibiotics take the lead with 40% of the global capacities of approximately 360,000 to 370,000 m3.
  • Most of the organic and amino acids are used in feed or food, and most antibiotics in human therapy and in feed. Developments in the feed market and to some extent in the food market have, therefore, outstanding importance for the future of such products. The feed market is suffering from reduced demand for meat, and lower meat prices as well. In Europe, meat consumption is decreasing because of the health aspect, and in Eastern Europe and Asia, because of the reduced purchasing power of the population.
  • Vitamins and polymers, the smaller fermentation products, are no exceptions. In these fields, price reductions will also be the driving force for a tendency toward lower market value in a few years. Possible higher demand in volume terms will not be able to compensate.
