The lutein segment is projected to grow at the highest rate during the forecast period

The lutein segment, on the basis of type, is projected to grow at the highest CAGR, in terms of value, during the forecast period. Lutein is synthesized by plants and found in some of the major food items, such as egg yolks, carrot, spinach, kale, squash, grapes, and pepper. It is used in both, human nutrition and animal nutrition products. Its wide acceptability due to its ability to treat age-related eye disorders, including cataracts and macular degeneration, is a key factor driving its demand.

Europe is projected to account for the largest share in the carotenoids market during the forecast period

The European market accounted for the largest share in 2018 due to the presence of leading manufacturers, such as Koninklijke DSM (Netherlands), BASF (Germany), Chr. Hansen (Denmark), and Dohler Group (Germany). Further, the increase in the aging population in the region has led to a surge in demand for lutein, lycopene, and beta-carotene to treat cataracts and reduce the risk of diabetes, cancer, and other heart-related issues. Although synthetic carotenoids account for a high share in the market, consumers prefer opting for natural and clean label products, which is projected to drive the growth of the naturally-sourced carotenoids market in this region.
