Key Drivers of Target Market:

Usage in Food Fortification

• Food fortification is a theory that was developed decades ago to fight iron deficiency. This process involves adding iron and other minerals to raw, processes, or semi-processed food to improve its nutritional value. Fortification relies on electrolytic iron powder because it is 99.5% pure and offers bioavailability.

Restrains:

Rising Cases of Health Issues

• People with kidney disease or another impairment to kidney function can’t rely on compensatory mechanisms to maintain electrolyte balance, so consuming too much could be very harmful. Additionally, taking electrolytes with water isn’t good for the individual with high blood pressure.
• Counterbalance Statements: One of the major solutions to this problem is maintain normal electrolyte concentrations by the formula “the amount of electrolytes per amount of water.”

Opportunities:

Technological Advancements such as 3D Printing

• The electrolyte iron powder sector has undergone a radical transformation in recent years due to new innovations and technological advancements such as 3D printing which increases functionality, user experience, consumers demand and preference
