Microencapsulation is an effective process for the protection of the encapsulated active agent in order to preserve the original taste, odor, color, and other biological and chemical characteristics. Through microencapsulation, companies provide a coating for various pharmaceutical and food products which are vulnerable to degrade with environmental conditions. Microencapsulation process is widely used in various industries which include pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and food industries. The global microencapsulation market is expected to show optimistic growth during the forecast period. Increasing investment in R&D for improving the efficiency of the technology is one of the major factors for market expansion.
The global microencapsulation market is segmented on the basis of technology and application. On the basis technology, the market is bifurcated into microencapsulation spray technology and microencapsulation emulsion technology. Spray technology is the most widely adopted technology owing to benefits offered by this technology such as high recovery efficiency, high production capacity, cost efficiency, and process safety. Further, on the basis of application, the market is segmented into pharmaceutical, food and beverages, construction, textiles, and others. Pharmaceutical sector held a substantial market share in the global microencapsulation market. Microencapsulation is extensively used in pharmaceutical for controlled drug delivery. Microencapsulation technology is widely adopted by pharmaceutical companies for masking the bitter taste or smell in drugs.
Geographically, the market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and rest of the world. North America held the major market share in the global microencapsulation market in 2018.
