Hydrocolloids are class of food ingredients which are widely used in different food products. Hydrocolloids are obtained from plants, animals, microbial, chemical modification of natural polysaccharides like carboxymethyl cellulose. Hydrocolloids are the substance which forms gel in presence of water which are used in various industrial applications. Hydrocolloids are used as a thickening agent, stabilizers, gel-forming agents, water retention agents, and dietary fibers. Hydrocolloids as a thickening agent used in sauces, toppings, gravies. Hydrocolloids as a gelling agents are used in food products like marmalade, jelly, jam, low calorie gel and restructured food. Hydrocolloids are used in many food products due to their functional carbohydrates property. Hydrocolloids are widely used in food industries as they helps in increasing the quality and shelf life of food. Hydrocolloids are used in food products like processed meats, ice cream, gravies, salad dressings and beverages. Hydrocolloid wound dressings are made up of mixture of natural polymer particles like sodium carboxymethylcellulose, pectin, and gelatin. Wide variety of applications has given push in the growth of the Hydrocolloids market.

Rise in consumption of ready to eat food, disposable income and rate of urbanization

Rise in consumption of ready to eat food and disposable income of an individual is one of the leading factors for the global hydrocolloid market growth. Disposable income allows the consumer to enhance their lifestyle and ready to eat food which are easily available with less time. Rise in working woman has led to increase in disposable income. Change in lifestyle has driven the change in food consumption. Demand for packed and processed foods which are ready to eat are increasing which has given rise in hydrocolloids market growth. Moreover, increasing urban population is one of the driving factors for the hydrocolloids market. Urban culture affects the person’s living lifestyle, and has increased the demand in food which are convenient and easily available. According to data published by United Nations in 2018, about 55% of the world’s population resided in urban areas, and it is projected that this percentage will increase over the forecast period. However, the growth in ready to eat food, population in urban areas boosts the demand for hydrocolloids.

Recent advancement of hydrocolloids in dairy products

Recent advancement of hydrocolloids in dairy products has become the major factor in growth of the market. Recent advancement of hydrocolloids applied in dairy products has improved their techno-functional properties. Hydrocolloids alter the techno-functional properties in dairy products. Various biopolymers which includes proteins and polysaccharides are applied in dairy products which helps in improving the rheology, texture, sensory attributes and physiochemical properties to meet the demand of consumers. Applying different hydrocolloids in dairy formulations helped in improving the physical properties like thickening capacity, gelation, zeta potential, stability, syneresis and rheological properties. For instance, in 2022, the use of hydrocolloids gum has augmented the quality of yogurt. Hydrocolloids xanthan and guar gums act as stabilizers which has enhanced the quality of yogurt and thus addition of hydrocolloids gum were highly recommended in the manufacturing of yogurt.
