Increase in demand for clean-label products and consumer health and wellness trends to drive the market growth of food textures.

Consumers in developed countries are increasingly seeking food products that do not contain artificial or synthetic additives due to the potential long-term negative health effects. To achieve the desired texture and extend the shelf-life of products, manufacturers are turning to natural preservatives, thickeners, and sweeteners. As people become more health-conscious, they are looking for minimally processed and naturally sourced food and beverage options.

The trend towards clean-label products is gaining momentum in the packaged food industry worldwide. Consumers are interested in knowing the ingredients and manufacturing processes used in their food products. They are also willing to pay more for products that they perceive to be clean and free of harmful additives. Consumers are paying closer attention to labels and nutritional information when making purchasing decisions than ever before. Natural food texturizers are considered clean-label products, and this is expected to drive the growth of the overall food texture market.
