Sorbitol Market: Leading Segments

APAC dominated the global sorbitol market and earned 55% of the total revenue in 2018. Low cost of liquid sorbitol, simplified production process, rising demand for sugar alcohol, high requirement of organic personal care products, and growing consumer awareness of product benefits derived from natural ingredients are key aspects fueling growth of the sorbitol market. Additionally, favorable government regulations, growing GDP, increasing investments in the market, and a spur in development of end-use industries are some of the factors that have identified the APAC region as having the maximum share of demand in the sorbitol market.

As per end-user applications, the sorbitol market is bifurcated into food and beverages, pharmaceuticals, chemicals and cosmetics, and personal care. On the basis of form, sorbitol can be segregated into solid or liquid form. It can also be classified as a bulking agent, flavouring agent, humectant and sweetener. Increasing demand for oral care products such as transparent gels, toothpaste, and mouthwash; growing usage of sorbitol as a foaming and wetting agent, emulsifier, detergent, and dispersant are factors fuelling the demand for sorbitol in cosmetic and personal care applications. As a result, key market players have capitalized on this industrial segment which is expected to grow at an outstanding CAGR of 4.20% by 2025.

Sorbitol Market Disruptive Trends

Owing to the direct compression properties of sorbitol, it has multiple benefits such as high dilution and  rate, low hygroscopicity, and high structured surface area. These benefits in turn are fueling the demand for application of sorbitol in different areas.

The production of sorbitol, commonly known as gluticol, is increased with metabolic engineering that uses lactobacillus plantarum. The aforementioned method had dominated the traditional method of production that involved catalytic hydrogenation of glucose.

Government regulations issued by FDA in favor of sorbitol that declared it as a safe ingredient for use in food products is another factor disrupting the growth of sorbitol market.
