Global Lactoferrin Market Segmental Analysis

The Global Lactoferrin Market is segmented based on functions, application, and region. Based on functions, the market is segmented into iron absorption and intestinal flora protection. Based on application, the market is segmented into personal care products and infant formula. Based on region, the global Lactoferrin market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, South America, and MEA.

Lactoferrin Market Analysis by Function

Iron absorption accounted for more than 29% of sales in 2021 and is predicted to maintain its lead during the projection period. Anemia, caused by iron deficiency, affects around 30% of the world's population. Lactoferrin is a crucial remedy for anemia because of its high bioavailability and capacity to boost blood ferritin levels by five times. According to the WHO, anemia affects 1.62 billion people worldwide, with the highest frequency among school-going children which is more than 47%.

Lactoferrin is a new-age remedy for anemia and a member of the transferrin family, which regulates free iron in bodily fluids and increases hemoglobin by binding iron. Antibacterial functionality was 2021's second-highest revenue sector. The product's capacity to limit bacterial growth and biofilm development will accelerate segment growth in the coming years. Lactoferrin is being used in more antimicrobial and antibacterial goods, which will boost segment growth.

Lactoferrin Market Analysis by Application

In 2021, the market for lactoferrin was led by the segment for infant formula, which made up more than 38.0% of all sales and is expected to grow at a steady pace throughout the analysis period. The demand is expected to grow because there are more clinical studies supporting the addition of lactoferrin to infant formula and consumer attitudes toward infant supplements are changing. Most of the demand for infant nutrition comes from developed economies and this will drive the global lactoferrin market growth.

During the forecast period, the segment for personal care products is expected to have the fastest CAGR. This growth can be attributed to the fact that people are buying more personal care products that are soothing and have properties that help reduce skin inflammation. It does this by stopping the production of inflammatory chemicals called cytokine mediators. The biggest benefit of lactoferrin is that it could be used as a non-toxic and anti-cancer drug.

Global Lactoferrin Market Dynamics

Lactoferrin Market Driver

  • Demand for lactoferrin-related products is likely to go up because consumers are becoming more aware of health and diet, and because skin-related health problems are becoming more common. Lactoferrin is thought to have antiviral, antibacterial, antiparasitic, catalytic, and anti-allergic properties and functions, which is why the pharmaceutical and personal care industries are expected to drive lactoferrin product demand.

Lactoferrin Market Restraint

  • Despite increased demand for enhanced nutritional and baby formula products, some obstacles are limiting the market growth. Lactoferrin-containing products are expensive. Food, nutritional supplements, newborn formula, and other segments demand 90.0% to 98.0% protein purity. The higher the purity, the more expensive it is to make, which raises pricing and slows down the market growth.
