掩味技術進步推動北美掩味劑市場
掩味劑透過微膠囊化、奈米技術、聚合物包衣、感官方法、熱熔擠出、絡合、噴霧乾燥等多種製程和技術應用於各種食品和飲料、藥品和藥物、膳食補充劑和動物營養產品中。奈米技術有助於提高香料的溶解度和穩定性,並提供控釋特性。因此,製造商擴大使用奈米技術來製造風味掩蔽劑。
此外,微膠囊化是一種相對較新的技術,其中香料成分被封裝在固體基質中。當物質被加熱或暴露於水中時,味道就會釋放出來。噴霧乾燥、凝聚、聚合和其他技術用於微膠囊化。在微膠囊化過程中,油/水混合物在壁材存在下均質化,然後進行受控噴霧乾燥。壁材包括植物膠、澱粉、糊精、蛋白質、纖維素酯等。微膠囊可在正確的位置和所需的時間提供受控的風味釋放。它可以保護活性成分(香料)免受水分、酸、熱、氧化和成分相互作用的影響。由於成分乾燥且可自由流動,因此還可以輕鬆處理成分,從而降低整體運輸和處理成本。微膠囊掩味劑具有高度的貨架穩定性,使其比其他形式更受歡迎。該技術不僅僅用於掩蓋味道和氣味;它還可以提高穩定性,防止成分相互作用,並改變成分的釋放。
因此,風味掩蔽劑製造的技術進步促進了全球風味掩蔽劑市場的成長。
北美掩味劑市場概況
隨著消費者健康意識的增強,積極尋求低糖、低脂、低鈉、低鹽食品,對掩味劑的需求激增。對低鹽和低糖產品的需求增加導致人工甜味劑和糖替代品的使用增加,它們可能具有明顯的餘味,需要掩蓋。由於這個因素,北美地區對掩味劑的需求激增。
近年來,由於人們對純素食食品的健康益處的認知不斷提高以及植物性產品創新的激增,純素食趨勢在北美獲得了顯著的發展勢頭。世界糧食組織表示,美國有 6% 的人口是素食主義者,2021 年植物性食品的銷售量比 2020 年成長了 27%。 ,產生了對風味掩蔽劑的需求。這些試劑有助於改善旨在滿足特定飲食要求的產品的味道,同時保持令人愉悅的風味特徵。
由於人們生活方式的改變、缺乏身體活動等因素,美國和加拿大等國家對健康和保健產品的需求正在迅速成長。大多數營養補充品都有一種特殊的異味,降低了它們的吸引力。因此,製造商很容易使用掩味劑來克服這些營養補充劑的難聞味道並提高消費者的接受度。運動營養產業是北美快速成長的產業。營養補充劑製造商正在大力投資推出在營養價值、口味和風味方面更好的產品。因此,對風味掩蔽劑、增強劑和其他添加劑等成分的需求預計在預測期內將會成長。

Technological Advancements in Flavor Masking Fuel North America Flavor Masking Agents Market
Flavor masking agents are used in various food and beverages, medicines and drugs, dietary supplements, and animal nutrition products through various techniques and technologies such as microencapsulation, nanotechnology, polymer coating, organoleptic methods, hot melt extrusion, complexation, and spray drying. Nanotechnology aids in enhancing the solubility and stability of flavors, as well as providing controlled release properties. Thus, manufacturers increasingly use nanotechnology to make flavor masking agents.
Moreover, microencapsulation is a relatively new technology in which the flavor content is encapsulated in a solid matrix. The flavor is released when the substance is heated or exposed to water. Spray drying, coacervation, polymerization, and other techniques are used in microencapsulation. In the microencapsulation process, the oil/water mixture is homogenized in the presence of wall material, followed by controlled spray drying. Wall materials include vegetable gums, starches, dextrin, proteins, cellulose esters, and others. Microencapsulation provides controlled flavor release at the right place and desired time. It protects the active ingredients (flavors) from moisture, acid, heat, oxidation, and ingredient interaction. It also provides the ease of handling ingredients as they are dry and free flowing, reducing overall transportation and handling costs. Microencapsulated flavor masking is highly shelf-stable, making it more desirable than other formats. The technology is not just for flavor and odor masking; it can also improve stability, prevent ingredient interaction, and modify the release of ingredients.
Thus, technological advancements in the manufacturing of flavor masking agents bolster the flavor masking agents market growth across the world.
North America Flavor Masking Agents Market Overview
The demand for flavor masking agents is surging as consumers become health-conscious and actively seek food products with low sugar, low fat, low sodium, and low salt. This rise in demand for reduced salt and sugar products has led to increased usage of artificial sweeteners and sugar substitutes, which can have distinct aftertastes, requiring masking. Due to this factor, the demand for flavor masking agents is surging in the North America region.
In recent years, vegan trends have gained significant momentum in North America owing to increasing awareness about the health benefits of vegan food and surging innovation in plant-based products. The World Food Organization stated that 6% of the population in the US is vegan, and the sales of plant-based food have increased by 27% in 2021 as compared to 2020. Thus, the rise in dietary restrictions and preferences, such as vegan, gluten-free, and FODMAP diets, has created a need for flavor masking agents. These agents help improve the taste of products designed to meet specific dietary requirements while maintaining enjoyable flavor profiles.
The demand for health and wellness products is rapidly increasing in countries such as the US and Canada owing to changing lifestyles of people, lack of physical activity, and other such factors. Majority of the nutritional supplements have a particular off flavor that reduces their desirability. Therefore, manufacturers readily use flavor masking agents to overcome the unpleasant taste of these nutritional supplements and increase their acceptance among the consumers. The sports nutrition industry is the rapidly growing industry in North America. Manufacturers of nutritional supplements are heavily investing in launching better products in terms of nutritional value, taste, and flavor. Therefore, the demand for ingredients such as flavor masking agents, enhancers, and other additives is expected to grow over the forecast period.
