The development of the food additive industry is dependent on the food industry. Although the food industry has become an important force in China's industrial sector, the overall proportion of the food industry in the primary industry is still low. The space is still very large, and the development potential of the corresponding food additive industry is also considerable.
For the problems in the development of the food additive industry, the results of the food market research show that most companies are optimistic that although the additive industry is now
Save Some problems, but the future additive market will develop rapidly and orderly. In the sales of products, domestic products will mainly be exported, and foreign brands will occupy the main domestic
Guidance status. Natural health products will become mainstream.
Every year, food safety issues are constantly exposed, and additives are once again the focus of consumers' attention. The consumption trend of foreign natural products has gradually formed. This is also recognized by the domestic market, and some consumers are mindful. In the concept of “natural is safe” and “natural is safer than synthetic”, it is necessary to note that “natural is not equal to safety”. Pure natural products also involve problems with usage and residuals. It is safe to use only by standard. At present, in the application of additives, some countries have begun to ban the use of certain synthetic additives. For curcumin, countries can only use natural extracts instead of synthetic products. Compared with European and American countries, China has abundant natural resources and has great development potential in the fields of natural antioxidants, natural pigments and natural flavors, and has already formed certain competitiveness in the international market.
According to the “2013-2017 China Food Additive Industry Competition Pattern Analysis and Development Trend Research Report” published by the China Report Hall, nutrition and health
Products will be another focus of future consumption. As people's living standards improve, consumers' health awareness will increase, requiring sensory quality such as color, fragrance, taste and shape, as well as health care, Nutritional function; women should consider whether it will produce obesity, the elderly should consider blood lipids, children should avoid dental caries, these emerging new demands, prompting additive manufacturers to increase investment in research and development, improve processes and invent new technologies, and constantly Arrange product development by studying changes in consumer spending habits.
Composite additives can be compounded with the same type of additives, or they can be combined with different types of additives to facilitate application or synergy. Complex
The development and application of additives is being valued by food and beverage manufacturers, especially in the fields of liquid milk, cakes and ice cream. At present, dairy emulsifiers, ice creams stabilizers, beverage suspensions, rice noodle products improvers, food flavors and fragrances, synthetic pigments, etc. are all available in the form of composite products. From the survey results, additive application companies support the composite additives, which will undoubtedly promote its rapid development. At present, the main domestic manufacturers of composite additives are Palasca, Danisco, IFF, Givaudan, and Firmenich. Compared with foreign countries, the development history of domestic additive industry is relatively short. There is a certain gap between production technology and equipment and similar foreign enterprises. However, in recent years, through the introduction and independent research and development of technology and equipment with independent intellectual property rights, domestic enterprises and The gap in foreign countries is getting smaller and smaller. With the intensification of competition and the improvement of national management standards, the additive industry will undergo large-scale integration, and enterprises that are too small or operate irregularly will be eliminated. The benign development of the industry and the increasing opportunities for cooperation among enterprises will jointly promote the development of the industry and enable the domestic food additive market to continue to maintain rapid growth.
