What trends are poised to drive the future success of the functional food ingredients market?
Prominent businesses operating within the functional food ingredients market are prioritizing the creation of clean label functional food ingredients. These clean label functional ingredients, derived naturally, provide health advantages while having minimal processing, and being made of easily recognizable ingredients that consumers understand without difficulty. For example, in February 2024, Ingredion Incorporated - an American ingredient solutions company specializing in the production of various sweeteners, starches and nutritional ingredients - debuted NOVATION® Indulge 2940. This is the inaugural functional native corn starch, which exhibits unique gelling and film-forming properties while staying within clean label guidelines. This cutting-edge starch is particularly suited for dairy products and alternate cheese uses, enhancing texture and feel in mouth without compromising the customer's preference for familiar ingredients. This innovation helps overcome the obstacles of developing clean label products and bolsters sustainability efforts by adding functionality in uses such as vegan pizza cheese and breaded fried food. Above all, it allows companies to deliver both top-quality products and alignment with health-oriented trends.
