Which Growth Factors Are Influencing Reduced Lactose Whey Market Expansion?
The burgeoning interest in plant-based nutrition is set to drive the expansion of the reduced-lactose whey market. Plant-based nutrition typically prescribes a diet rich in plant-derived food such as fruits, vegetables, grains, nuts, seeds, and legumes, limiting or avoiding consumption of animal-based products. This shift towards plant-based nutrition is propelled by concerns about environmental sustainability, health advantages, and animal welfare considerations. Reduced lactose whey is being blended into such diets as a high-quality protein provider, providing a lactose-limited, dairy-free substitute for those looking to enhance their plant-based dietary regime with added protein. For example, the Plant Based Foods Association (PBFA), a US-based trade union championing plant-based food producers, stated that in January 2023, sales of plant-based foods had escalated by 6.6% in 2022 (up from 5.9% in 2021). Furthermore, plant-based creamers, positioned third only to milk and meat, registered a revenue increase of 24% and a sales volume escalation of 12%. Hence, this rising trend of plant-based nutrition is powering the advancement of the reduced-lactose whey market.

What Are the Latest Developing Trends in the Reduced Lactose Whey Market?
Key players in the reduced lactose whey market are diversifying their product range as they introduce innovative items like animal-free whey protein to meet the increasing needs of vegan and plant-based customers. The animal-free whey protein is sourced from whey protein and does not involve the use of animals, it is generated through precision fermentation wherein microbes such as fungi are genetically modified to produce whey proteins in bioreactors. For example, in June 2022, Strive Nutrition, a sustainable nutrition enterprise based in the United States, introduced a range of milk substitutes fortified with animal-free whey protein. The aim is to mimic the flavour and nutritional profile of cow's milk, minus the related health and environmental issues. Strive FREEMILK, a type of animal-free whey protein, guarantees no presence of lactose, hormones, antibiotics, and cholesterol. It delivers 25% more protein, 75% less sugar, and decreased saturated fat compared to standard whole cow's milk.
