This research study analyzes the prebiotics market from a global perspective, understanding market dynamics, segmenting the market on regional and application levels while providing estimates and forecasts for each. The report strives to provide a holistic picture of supply and demand characteristics of prebiotic ingredients by providing historical data from 2009 and a forecast of market numbers until 2018 along with analysis of revenues and volumes.

The prebiotics market by ingredients is dominated by naturally derived ingredients such as fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS), inulin, mannan oligosaccharides (MOS), and others. Synthetically derived ingredients are as yet few in number and they are generally termed as galacto oligosaccharides (GOS). These ingredients are incorporated into food and dietary supplements that are then consumed by human beings and animals, thus helping to enhance their gut health. These markets have been segmented based on volumes and revenues and have been analyzed for market stability and growth.

Major application sectors include food and beverages, dietary supplements and animal feed. Dairy products, cereals, baked food, fermented meat, dry food and other such market segments have been analyzed in the food and beverages application segment. Dietary supplements have found popularity only in the past ten years or so and are subdivided into food supplements, nutritional supplements, specialty nutrients and infant formulae. Animal feed has not yet been fully developed and explored and hence the main focus of manufacturers in animal feed is in research and development of sustainable products. Prebiotic ingredient demand for animal feed is expected to reach USD 429.3 million in 2018.

The prebiotics market by geography covers regions such as North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and Rest of the World (RoW) and analyses them on the basis of volume and revenue. These regions have in turn been segmented on the basis of ingredients and application and a detailed analysis of these sub-segments has been included centered around both volume and revenue from 2010 and forecast until 2018.
