For instance, there is a growing demand for natural and organic inhibitors as consumers become more health-conscious and environmentally aware. This trend is particularly evident in the food, beverage, and cosmetic industries, where clean-label products are highly sought after. Extracts from herbs, spices, and essential oils are used as natural inhibitors.
Likewise, chemistry and material science advancements have led to the development of new and more effective inhibitor formulations. These innovations are designed to enhance performance, improve safety, and extend the range of applications. Encapsulation of inhibitors in microcapsules allows for controlled release, providing long-lasting protection. This technology is particularly useful in applications requiring sustained mold inhibition, such as paints and coatings. There is a growing trend towards developing multifunctional inhibitors that offer additional benefits, such as antimicrobial properties, UV protection, and water repellency. These products provide comprehensive protection and added value to consumers.
As the Indian animal feed industry grows, there is a higher demand for quality feed to ensure animal health and productivity. These inhibitors are crucial in preventing mold growth in feed, which can lead to animal spoilage and health issues. Therefore, the demand for mold inhibitors is likely to increase in parallel with the expansion of the animal feed industry. As per the National Investment Promotion and Facilitation Agency, The Indian animal feed industry grew by 3.5% over the last five years to reach the size of approx. $11.66 Bn. It is expected to reach $19.23 Bn by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate of 8.2%. India has established strong markets for cattle and poultry feeds. Likewise, pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities require strict control over environmental conditions to prevent contamination of drugs during production. Mold inhibitors are essential in maintaining the quality and safety of pharmaceutical products by preventing mold growth in raw materials, intermediates, and finished products. Therefore, the need for mold inhibitors is expected to rise in tandem with China's pharmaceutical industry's growth. According to the International Trade Administration (ITA), China’s pharmaceutical sector has constantly grown and reached $161.8 billion in 2023, taking about 30% of the global industry share. Thus, the expansion of the rising animal feed sector and pharmaceutical industry are driving the market's growth.
