The global agar-agar gum market is
anticipated to reach USD 345.3 million by 2025, according to a new report by
Grand View Research, Inc. Shifting consumer preference towards animal-free
products and popularity of dairy-based products to maintain healthy diets has
resulted in significant market growth.
The industry is also responsible
for employment generation especially for people dwelling in coastal villages
where seaweed collection forms an important component of their income. The
activity is crucial for rural women who do not actively participate in
mainstream fishing.
Technological advancements have
supported the industry as well, with the introduction of metal scrapers that
may be utilized to harvest larger quantities of seaweed with less effort.
Additionally, new methods & processes have been introduced to extract agar
from seaweed along with other techniques for cleaning, pre-treatment,
filtration & gelation, and dewatering.
Agar powders occupied over 90% of
the volume share in 2015. Creative cooking methods have also paved new growth
avenues for molecular gastronomy applications, with powdered gum being
dissolved in boiling aqueous liquids to create unique dishes. Textured foods
such as pearls and spaghetti gels, along with foamed products are important
drivers for this segment.
