Global Food Encapsulation Market

The global food encapsulation market is projected to reach nearly $40 billion by the year 2015, according to a report from Global Industry Analysts, Inc. (GIA) titled, “Food Encapsulation: A Global Strategic Business Report.” Increased interest and adoption of technologies will be witnessed in the infant, functional and health food segments where food fortification ranks important and where nutritional and therapeutic ingredients need to be protected against flavor, taste and nutritional degradation. Venture capital investments are expected to be especially high in the functional foods segment, given the rapidly aging population and growing demand for foods with disease prevention benefits.
