Malt is defined as a cereal grain that undergoes germination through soaking in water and subsequent kiln-drying in a hot oven. This process is crucial in brewing and distilling. The transformation of cereal grains, such as barley, into malt suitable for use in food, beverages, or distillation is referred to as malting.
The primary types of malts include liquid extract, dry extract, and malt flour, sourced mainly from barley, wheat, and rye. Liquid extract denotes a separation technique where a solute is moved from one solvent to another, with the two solvents being either immiscible or only slightly miscible. Distribution channels encompass both online and offline methods and find application in various sectors, including the beer industry, whisky distilleries, food and beverages, and pharmaceuticals.

The expansion observed in the historical period can be credited to the resurgence of craft brewing, the overall growth of the beer industry, consumer inclination towards specialty and craft beers, shifts in dietary preferences, and the globalization of the beer market.
The malts market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $13.77 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.1%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be ascribed to the increase in home brewing, the influence of health and wellness trends, the adoption of sustainable and organic brewing practices, the trend towards premiumization and the utilization of specialty malt varieties, and the emergence of non-alcoholic and low-alcohol beverages. Prominent trends expected in the forecast period encompass a heightened demand for organic and non-GMO malts, innovations in malting techniques, a focus on single origin and terroir-influenced malts, collaborative efforts in malt development, and diversification beyond traditional brewing practices.
The malts market is anticipated to experience growth, propelled by the increasing consumption of beer. Beer, a carbonated alcoholic beverage brewed and fermented from cereals, particularly malted barley, is a key driver for malt market expansion. Malt, a crucial ingredient in craft beer, is specially prepared for brewing. Notably, the Global Beer Consumption Report for 2021 from Kirin Holdings Company Limited revealed a global beer consumption of about 185.60 million kiloliters in 2021, reflecting a 4.0% increase from the previous year. The surge in beer consumption, equivalent to approximately 11.3 billion 633-ml bottles, is contributing to the growth of the malts market.
The growth of the malts market is further expected to be propelled by an increasing demand in the pharmaceutical industry. The pharmaceutical sector, engaged in research, development, production, and marketing of drugs, utilizes malts as carriers or fillers in tablet and capsule production, as well as in formulations such as creams and ointments. As per the European Federation of Pharmaceutical Industries and Associations (EFPIA) in June 2023, the pharmaceutical production in Europe reached $384,200 million (€340,000 million) in 2022, indicating a 4.95% increase from the previous year. This rising demand in the pharmaceutical industry is contributing to the growth of the malts market.
