Encapsulation is a method of encasing tastes and scents within a cover material for protection from environmental factors. This minimizes flavor and scent loss, while slowing product degradation, through processing and storage. According to a recent report by Future Market Insights (FMI), the market is expected to reflect a CAGR of 5.9%, hitting an estimated value of US$ 11.2 Bn by the end of 2031.

Encapsulation processes create functional qualities including the controlled release of aromatic molecules in specific environments. Encapsulated flavors and fragrances are used as excipients in the food and beverage, cosmetics, and personal care sectors for preserving products for long-term use.

Purity, granulation, average molecular weight, colour, and solubility determine the grade of encapsulated products. The wide multi-functional benefits of encapsulated flavours and fragrances are aiding the growth of the global market.

High levels of investments in research and development by key players, particularly in the developed countries, are expected to boost consumption. Another factor driving the market’s growth is the rising demand for functional foods.

Additionally, manufacturers are using technologies such as spray-drying, which is the most commonly used method in the industry. The emphasis on health and wellness has risen by leaps and bounds.

Healthy drinks with vitamins and natural flavors are becoming popular among consumers. Flavour encapsulation is preferred to chemically synthesized equivalents. Consequently, it is used on fruit and vegetable ingredients without compromising nutritional content. As a result, encapsulated flavour manufacturers have great opportunities to partner with beverage manufacturers and supply encapsulated flavors for health drinks and more.
