DUBLIN, January 8, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/njwqck/food_stabilizers) has announced the addition of the "Food Stabilizers (Blends & Systems) Market - Global Forecasts to 2020" report to their offering.

The food stabilizers market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.2% from 2015 to reach USD 9.10 Billion by 2020. The industry is driven by the growing demand for specialized and customized blends for each specific application. The market is further driven by the rise in demand for baked foods, dairy products, and change in consumer lifestyles, consequent to increasing consumption of convenience and ready-to-eat foods.

Based on the function for which food stabilizers are used, the food stabilizers market is led by the texture segment, followed by the stability segment in terms of value in 2014. Food stabilizers are used on a large scale in regions where there is higher demand and consumption of dairy products and convenience foods.

Among the varied applications for food stabilizers-bakery, confectionery, dairy & dairy products, sauces & dressings, beverages, convenience foods, and meat & poultry-dairy & dairy products accounted for the largest market share, followed by convenience foods, in 2014. Dairy products are widely consumed in European countries and are making their way into regular diets in most of the developing Asian and Latin American countries.

In 2014, Europe accounted for the largest market share for food stabilizers, followed by North America and Asia-Pacific. The increasing demand for healthier and innovative products and ingredients is driving the growth for food stabilizers in Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East. The Asia-Pacific region is projected to be the fastest-growing market, with investments from several multinational manufacturers, especially in countries such as China, India, and Japan.

Adherence to stringent international quality standards and government regulations for the usage and quantity of food stabilizers as additives in food products poses as one of the restraints for the food stabilizers market. The increasing consumer preference toward fresh food over packaged food hinders the growth of the food stabilizers market.
