What are the key forces behind the biocatalyst market’s growth in recent years?
The rising shift towards natural food products is expected to propel the growth of the biocatalyst market going forward. Natural food products are food substances produced without synthetic chemicals, pesticides, or genetically modified organisms (GMOs), and they are minimally processed and free from artificial additives. Demand for natural food products is on the rise due to several factors, including increasing health consciousness among consumers and a growing need for transparency in the food supply chain. Biocatalysts, such as enzymes, facilitate biochemical reactions in natural food products, improving processes such as fermentation, flavor enhancement, and preservation. For instance, in June 2022, according to a survey published by the Organic Trade Association (OTA), a US-based business association for the organic industry in North America, it was revealed that organic industry sales surpassed $63 billion, with $1.4 billion (2%) in total growth over the preceding year. Additionally, organic food, which accounted for over 90% of organic product sales, experienced 2% growth, reaching $57.5 billion. Therefore, the rising shift towards natural food products is driving the growth of the biocatalyst market.

Hansen Holding A/S, Piramal Pharma Solutions, Ginkgo Bioworks Inc., Codexis Inc., BBI Solutions, AB Enzymes GmbH, BRAIN Biotech AG, DuPont Industrial Biosciences, Amano Enzyme Inc., Biosynth Carbosynth AG, BioCat GmbH, Enzyme Development Corporation, Prozomix Limited, evoxx technologies GmbH, Enzymicals AG, Dyadic International Inc., Advanced Enzyme Technologies Ltd., Creative Enzymes, Direvo Industrial Biotechnology GmbH
What major trends will shape the biocatalyst market during the forecast period?
Major companies operating in the biocatalyst market are focused on developing advanced solutions, such as nucleases, to enhance the efficiency of biotechnological processes and cost-effective manufacturing practices across various industries. A nuclease is a type of biocatalyst, which is an enzyme that facilitates biochemical reactions. Nucleases catalyze the hydrolysis of the phosphodiester bonds within nucleic acids, such as deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA), leading to their degradation into smaller components. For instance, in March 2023, Biocatalysts Ltd., a UK-based biotechnology research company, launched Nuclease 46L (N046L). It is an enzyme designed to degrade various nucleic acids from multiple sources. This enzyme offers a cost-effective method for DNA elimination in numerous biotechnology applications. Nuclease 46L enhances this process by efficiently reducing nucleic acids, improving downstream efficiency, and ensuring the final food product is free from nucleic acid residues.
What are the key regional dynamics of the biocatalyst market, and which region leads in market share?
North America was the largest region in the biocatalyst market in 2023. Asia-Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing region in the forecast period. The regions covered in the biocatalyst market report are Asia-Pacific, Western Europe, Eastern Europe, North America, South America, Middle East, Africa.
What Does The Biocatalyst Market Report 2025 Offer?
The biocatalyst market research report from The Business Research Company offers global market size, growth rate, regional shares, competitor analysis, detailed segments, trends, and opportunities.
Biocatalysts are biological molecules, typically enzymes, that facilitate chemical reactions in living organisms or in vitro systems. They accelerate the rate of reactions by lowering the activation energy required for the reaction to occur without being consumed in the process. These are widely used in various industries, including pharmaceuticals and environmental remediation, due to their specificity, efficiency, and environmentally friendly nature.
