Maltose Industry Report by Regional Category Spend, Price Analysis, Key Demand and Price Indicators, and Best Buying Practices

The global maltose reached a value of about 3.76 MMT in 2021. The industry is projected to grow at a CAGR of around 1.5% in the forecast period of 2022-2027 to reach a value of about 4.11 MMT by 2027.

The high maltose syrup is used in various foods to improve flavour, structure, and texture while also providing resistance to colour development, moisture absorption, and crystallisation in final goods such as hard candies. It gives the completed items excellent solidity and clarity. The key demand indicator in the industry report is the highest category spender by region— North America.

Industry Definition and Segmentation

Maltose, sometimes referred to as malt, is a disaccharide composed of two alpha D glucose units. An alpha 1,4 glycosidic bond connects the two units of glucose. The enzymes maltase and isomaltose break down maltose molecules into two glucose molecules in the human small intestine mucosa, absorbed by the body. On the other hand, a disaccharide is a carbohydrate created by combining two glucose units. Sucrose, maltose, and lactose are the three most common disaccharides. Lactulose, trehalose, and cellobiose are three more disaccharides that are less well-known. Dehydration reactions occur when one water molecule is eliminated by connecting two monosaccharides, resulting in a disaccharide molecule. The reaction that occurs during this process is known as the dehydration reaction.

Based on historical and projected trends, all segments and categories of the maltose market are examined. The market, and its parts and varieties, are covered from 2016 to 2028. The research identifies the key features and categories that contribute the most to total addressable market revenue growth and the factors driving their growth. The maltose industry report comprises of three segments based on type (food grade, industrial grade, and pharmaceutical grade), application (candy, cold drinks, liquid beverages, and biological Medium), and region-wise (North America, East Asia, Europe, South Asia, Southeast Asia, the Middle East and Africa, Oceania, South America, and Rest of the World).

North America Region is Driving the Growth of the Industry

The maltose market in North America is increasing significantly and is driving the growth of the maltose market to a greater extent. The increasing adoption of advanced technologies in this region and the presence of significant players are expected to provide ample potential possibilities for the market. In addition, the growth in the consumption of the baked products and confectionery in developed regions like North America and Europe are assisting in the increase of the demand for maltose.

Category Management Studies

Maltose is another form of carbohydrate which is one of the nutrient important for the proper functioning of the human body. The composition of maltose if carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Maltose comprises of two glucose molecules joined by a -(1,4′) glycosidic bond. The enzyme amylase enzymatically hydrolyzes amylose, a homopolysaccharide, to produce maltose. Maltase, an enzyme that hydrolyzes the glycosidic link, converts maltose to two molecules of glucose. Maltose is made commercially from starch that has been treated with barley malt. The enzyme amylase catalyses the enzymatic breakdown of starch which is a homopolysaccharide to yield maltose. The enzyme maltase further hydrolyses maltose to create two molecules of d-glucose.

The hemiacetal of the -d-glucopyranosyl unit is the monosaccharide unit on the left. An -(1,4) glycosidic bond connects to the aglycone -d-glucopyranose. The glycosidic bond's oxygen atom is roughly in the middle of the structure, between the two rings. It is axially thrust down, and thus the links is axial-equatorial because it is linked to C-4 of the aglycone.

Maltose Application to Candy, Cold Drinks, Liquid Beverage and Biological Medium are Further Driving the Procurement of Maltose

The food industry's increased demand for natural and healthy ingredients is driving up demand for high-maltose syrups, particularly those made from corn or other natural sources. The segment's growth is being aided by expanding customer demand for natural and gluten-free food products and increased health awareness. Due to the unfavourable reputation of high fructose corn syrups, which are claimed to have detrimental health effects, high-maltose corn syrups have seen increased demand as a food ingredient in recent years. Maltose is a less dangerous sugar than fructose and galactose. Furthermore, maltose's consistent qualities may increase product demand in the pharmaceutical business as a substitute for chemically generated sugar.

The regional markets for the industry can be divided into North America, South America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa, and the Asia Pacific.

Key Initiatives by Companies

• Novozymes has unveiled a novel enzyme secura that targets the manufacture of maltose syrups. Secura, the new product, aids in the optimization of operations and the reduction of processing expenses. The starch sector, which generates a wide range of sweeteners and chemicals used in the food industry, is one of the oldest markets for enzymes. Secura is a thermostable, low-pH beta-amylase enzyme, it has a higher product activity than plant-based beta amylases, and this activity level remains consistent over time.
