Acid Casein Market Overview
The Acid Casein
Market size is estimated to reach US$3.9 billion by 2027, after growing at a CAGR of 4.8% during 2022-2027. Acid Casein is a milk
protein produced by the controlled acidification of pure, pasteurized skim milk at a pH4.6 with different functional
properties. The edible acid
casein finds its application in food and non-food products
such as cheese, dairy fats, milk powder, medical nutrition, milk protein powders, biscuits,
drinks, paper and cardboard coating, leather tanning, adhesives and many more.
The rise in the growth of food & non-food products would surge the acid casein industry. According to the
National Milk producer’s federation, the total production of cheese in the US
was around 3,319 million pounds between March and May 2022, an increase of 5% as
compared to the same period of 2021. Therefore,
the rise in dairy products would increase the demand for acid casein and, in turn, would boost the Acid Casein market size.

Acid Casein Market Segment Analysis – by Grade
The food grade segment held
a significant share of the Acid Casein Market in 2021 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.6% during 2022-2027. The food-grade acid casein plays a valuable role in
aiding the efficient supply of nutrients and has a remarkably wide variety of applications.
The food-grade edible acid casein is widely used in
the production of cheese, dairy fats, milk powder, medical nutrition, milk protein powders, biscuits,
drinks and many other products, owing to properties like being low in flavor, rich in amino acids and supporting
nutrition. The
rise in the production of the food & beverages industry would eventually
drive the acid casein industry. As per International Trade
Administration, the food processing industry of Peru represents over 28% of the
industrial GDP. Also, 3,000 food processing companies in Peru represent 22% of
the Economically Active Population (EAP) occupied in the manufacturing sector
and 2% of the national occupied EAP. Thus, with the rise in the food processing sector globally, the
demand for food-grade
acid casein would increase and boost the Acid Casein market size during the
forecast period.
Acid Casein Market Segment Analysis – by End-use Industry
The food &
beverages industry held a significant share of 32% in the Acid Casein market in 2021 and is
anticipated to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period 2022-2027.
In the food & beverages sector, edible acid casein can be used as a thickener,
emulsifier, nutritional supplement and texture stabilizer for various food
products such as cream-based soups, cheese, drinks, pudding and custard. The rise in growth of the food & beverages
sector would eventually drive the acid casein industry. As per Statistics
Canada and FCC Economics, the food manufacturing sales in Canada increased by
14.8% to US$125 billion in 2021 and are projected
to increase by 7.4% in 2022. Such growth in the food & beverages sector globally
is expected to bolster the requirement for acid casein which would propel the growth of the Acid Casein market size during the forecast period.
