Xanthan gum, a natural polysaccharide, finds its applications in industries such as food & beverages, personal care & cosmetics, and pharmaceutical sector. Xanthan gum can increase the viscosity of a solution dramatically. Resultantly, it is used as a natural thickener in various food and personal care products, including lotions, liquid soaps, shampoos, and toothpaste, etc. The addition of xanthan gum also prevents the separation of emulsions and assists in the suspension of solid particles; hence, it is utilized as an excipient in various pharmaceutical products.

The global xanthan gum market size is increasing continuously over the past few years. Increasing consumption of xanthan gum in the production of processed food items and augmenting demand for convenience food is a major driving force behind the market growth. According to Market Research Future (MRFR), the global xanthan gum market is projected to reach a valuation of USD 1.2 billion by 2024, registering 4.5% CAGR during the review period (2019-2024).

The market is anticipated for strong growth across a wide variety of applications as the industries such as food & beverage and personal care, increasingly seek naturally derived and clean-label ingredients for their new product formulations. Additionally, factors such as increasing pollution and rapid urbanization & industrialization, substantiate the growth of the market. The improving global economy supports the market growth, increasing consumer’s health & wellness expenditures, and improving their quality of life. 

On the other hand, the availability of substitute materials such as guar gum, that can offer similar benefits are likely to hamper the growth of the market during the forecast period. Nevertheless, advances in production techniques would support market growth extensively throughout the review period.
