According to a new report published by Allied Market Research, titled, "Tea Polysaccharides Market," The tea polysaccharides market size was valued at $886.70 million in 2022, and is estimated to reach $1.9 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 7.7% from 2023 to 2032.
Tea polysaccharides are a type of complicated carbohydrates found in tea leaves. Polysaccharides are lengthy, interconnected chains of molecular sugars. They primarily originate from the innermost cells of tea plants such as Camellia sinensis, which are commonly utilized for making a variety of teas such as green tea, black tea, and oolong tea.
Tea polysaccharides are extracted from tea leaves by using an procedure which is long and time-taking. When fresh tea leaves shrivel up, they lose moisture and develop more flexible. The browned leaves are subsequently rolled or shredded, which breaks down cell walls and stimulates polysaccharide release. The leaves are then oxidized (fermented) in the event of black tea but not in the scenario of green tea. The tea leaves are dried after oxidation to eliminate extra moisture. The dried leaves are then finely processed to make tea powder. In the end, tea polysaccharides are removed from powdered tea using solvents such as hot water or alcohol by procedures such as extraction with hot water, ultrasonic-assisted extraction, or microwave-assisted extraction.
The global tea polysaccharides market was significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. As the disease affected the entire globe, governments enacted tight lockdown measures and travel restrictions, disrupting tea polysaccharide supply lines and distribution networks. Closures of tea farms, processing plants, and shipping routes reduced market output and availability of tea polysaccharides. Furthermore, consumer behavior altered as consumers prioritized basic commodities and lowered discretionary expenditure on non-essential products such as tea polysaccharides.
The surge in requirement for functional and natural components has a significant impact on the tea polysaccharides industry. In the past five years, there has been a noticeable trend in consumer tastes toward healthier options and an increased focus on the nutritional content of food and beverages. Consumers look for goods that provide extra health advantages beyond basic nutrition, which has resulted in the increased popularity of functional additives.
On the other hand, tea polysaccharides are predominantly obtained from tea leaves, and the availability & grade of tea leaves might vary regionally and seasonally. This limited supply of raw materials can pose a challenge in meeting the surge in demand for tea polysaccharides. The tea polysaccharides market faces competition from plant extracts, functional fibers, and other polysaccharides, which have an impact on its market growth.
The tea polysaccharides market is segmented into type, form, application, and region. By type, the market is classified into oolong tea, black tea, green tea, and others. By form, the market is bifurcated into powder and liquid. By application, the market is classified into the food & beverages industry, nutraceuticals industry, and others. Region-wise, the market is analyzed across North America (the U.S., Canada, and Mexico), Europe (Germany, the UK, France, Spain, Italy, and the rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (China, Japan, India, South Korea, Australia, and the rest of Asia-Pacific), and LAMEA (Latin America, Middle East, and Africa).
