Global Xanthan Gum Market is expected to reach $1,076 million by 2023 from $722 million in 2016 to reach, at a CAGR of 5.9%, during the forecast period, 2017 ‐2023. The xanthan gum is a natural polysaccharide and an important industrial biopolymer. It is one of the most adaptable elastic thickeners which performs well in small quantities. It is highly soluble in both hot & cold water and has the ability to absorb more water than its own weight and capability to form a gel. These solutions are highly viscous at low polymer concentrations. It possesses unique properties, such as high viscosity at low concentrations, insensitivity to a wide range of temperature, pH & electrolyte variations, and pseudo plasticity. It is most commonly used as a stabilizing and thickening agent in a wide variety of food and industrial products. Moreover, it is considered as a non-hazardous additive for a wide range of brines, drilling, and fracturing fluids.
The factors that drive the xanthan gum market growth are demand from food & beverages industry, gluten-free food products, multi-functionality of xanthan gum, change in consumer preferences, and rise in consumption of convenience food. However, high cost of xanthan gum & availability of relatively cheap substitutes and anti-dumping policies on xanthan gum hamper the market growth during the forecast period. Increase in demand for oil & gas drilling and production of xanthan gum using inexpensive & abundantly available raw materials is expected to provide a substantial growth opportunity in the near future.
The xanthan gum market report emphasizes on the different applications of xanthan gum, such as food & beverages, medical, personal care & cosmetics, oil & gas, and others. Based on function, the industry is classified into thickening agent, stabilizing agent, suspending agent, fat replacer, and others. Geographically, it is analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA. In addition, it highlights various factors that impact the growth of the global market, such as key drivers, restraints, growth opportunities, and the role of different key players.

Key Benefits of Xanthan Gum Market Report:
Xanthan gum is a complex exopolysaccharide (polymer composed of sugar residues) secreted by a microorganism into the surrounding environment. It is soluble in hot & cold water and is insoluble in most organic solvents. It is acceptable to use with several materials, and dissolves directly in highly alkaline, acidic, and alcoholic systems. It is considered as a harmless food additive and is in broad range of applications, such as food & beverages, medical, personal care & cosmetics, and oil & gas, and others. In 2016, the food & beverages segment accounted for two-third share of the global market and is expected to witness the highest growth rate, registering a CAGR of 6.2% during the forecast period.
The thickening agent segment is expected to witness the highest growth rate, registering a CAGR of 6.3% during the forecast period. It is widely used as a thickening agent in broad range of application, owing to its property of high viscosity at low concentration. The thickening of liquid with xanthan gum is quite easy as it thickens liquid very quickly by simply blending it into required liquid.
Asia-Pacific is the most significant market for xanthan gum, in terms of both revenue and volume. China dominated the Asia-Pacific xanthan gum market in 2016, in terms of both value and volume. Asia-Pacific is expected to show excellent growth on account of increase in processed foods production and developments in oil & gas production in China and India.
