The enzyme stabilizer market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The market size of enzyme stabilizers has seen a tremendous surge in recent years. It is expected to expand from $3.42 billion in 2024 to $3.67 billion in 2025, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.2%.
This protracted growth in the historical years can be credited to the escalating demand for industrial enzymes, their increased usage in pharmaceuticals, the expansion of the food and beverage sector, growth in the detergent industry, as well as the surge in the biofuel sector.
The enzyme stabilizer market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• In the coming years, the enzyme stabilizer market size is predicted to experience robust growth. The value is projected to reach $4.83 billion in 2029, expanding at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.1%.
The upward trend in the forecast period can be credited to the development of biotechnology applications, the enlargement of the personal care products range, the move towards cold water detergent formulations, the need for enzyme-based animal feed, and a flourishing pharmaceutical industry. Significant trends during the forecast period will be the use of natural stabilizers, integration with biotechnology, application in pharmaceuticals, the creation of tailored solutions, and the embracing of encapsulation methods.
The increase in preference for processed foods is predicted to fuel the expansion of the enzyme stabilizer market in the future. Changes in their natural state through methods such as canning, freezing, or the addition of preservatives characterizes processed foods. The appeal for these types of food can be attributed to the need for convenience, longer shelf life, and the rapid pace of consumers' lifestyles. Enzyme stabilizers play a crucial role in processed foods by preserving the enzyme activity throughout production and storage, thereby ensuring product uniformity and longevity. For example, the United States Department of Agriculture, an American federal agency, reports that in 2023, the overall worth of US processed food products transported from the nation rose to $36.59 billion, seeing a growth of 1.7% relative to prior years. Thus, the increasing demand for processed foods serves as a catalyst for the expansion of the enzyme stabilizer market.

In the enzyme stabilizer market, leading businesses are concentrating their efforts on creating novel solutions like oral enzyme stabilizers to improve their functionality and convenience for the user. These oral enzyme stabilizers are special elements that safeguard and preserve the effectiveness of enzymes as they navigate through the digestive system, thus retaining their ability for therapeutic and digestive uses. For example, Amicus Therapeutics, a biotech firm based in the US, gained approval in June 2023 from the European Commission (EC) for their enzyme stabilizer opfolda (miglustat) 65 mg capsules. This stabilizer, an enzyme replacement therapy that aids adults with late-onset Pompe disease, is reliant on cipaglucosidase alfa. It is an integral part of the treatment plan particularly when combined with cipaglucosidase alfa (Pombiliti).
