Carotenoids refer to various organic pigments that are responsible for bright red, yellow and orange hues in fruits and vegetables. They are a class of phytonutrients that are essential for plant health and are a rich source of vitamin A and antioxidants. Carotenoids can be synthetically produced as well as they are found in plants, algae, bacteria and fungi. Some of the other major natural sources of carotenoids include papaya, pineapple, pumpkin, apricot, carrot, orange and corn. Alpha and beta carotene, beta-cryptoxanthin, lutein, zeaxanthin and lycopene are some of the commonly used carotenoids that are added as a colorant in food, cosmetics and animal feed products. In humans, they aid in treating cancer, improving vision and supporting physical growth and development.

Global Carotenoids Market Trends:

The increasing prevalence of cancer and other age-related ophthalmic disorders is one of the key factors driving the growth of the market. Furthermore, the widespread utilization of carotenoids in dietary supplements and other pharmaceutical products is also providing a boost to the market growth. Owing to increasing health consciousness and rising geriatric population across the globe, there is a shift in the consumer preferences toward preventive healthcare products that can act as antioxidants and protect the body from chronic diseases, cellular damage and detrimental effects of aging. Carotenoids are extensively utilized to improve animal nutrition and feed products to enhance their fertility and overall immunity. This, along with various technological advancements in extraction methods and the growing demand for natural coloring, is projected to drive the market further.
