Driving Factors
The market for United Kingdom pea derivatives is influenced by the growing demand for gluten-free food products, and there is a greater need for pea protein. Additionally, the market is expanding due to the need for binding and texturizing agents such as pea fiber and pea starch in food applications. Customers desire for plant-based substitutes for animal goods is one of the main factors propelling the market. The market for pea protein and other derivatives is anticipated to continue growing as more customers look for alternatives to meat and dairy. Consumer demand for plant-based nutrition, sustainability concerns, and technological advancements are all driving the pea derivatives business in the UK. Growing numbers of vegan, flexitarian, and health-conscious consumers are drawn to pea protein because it offers a clean-label, allergy-free substitute for dairy and soy. Food processing innovations have also enhanced the flavor, texture, and solubility of pea-based components, increasing their suitability for use in dairy alternatives, meat substitutes, and sports nutrition.
Restraining Factors
However, the market growth faces some barriers; the unpleasant beany or earthy off-flavour that pea protein is frequently associated with is one of the main obstacles, as it influences consumer acceptance in applications such as plant-based dairy and meat substitutes. These combined sensory, supply chain, and infrastructure hurdles severely hamper the rapid growth of the pea derivatives industry in the UK.
Market Segmentation
The United Kingdom pea derivatives market share is classified into type and protein.
- The pea protein segment accounted for the largest market share in 2024 and is anticipated to grow at a substantial CAGR over the forecast period.
The United Kingdom pea derivatives market is classified by type into pea protein, pea starch, pea fiber, and others. Among these, the pea protein segment accounted for the largest market share in 2024 and is expected to grow at a substantial CAGR over the forecast period. Vegan diets are becoming more and more popular as a result of the rising incidence of diseases like diabetes and obesity, especially in younger generations. Additionally, the raising of animals has a detrimental effect on natural resources and partially causes global warming. This influence is generally recognized, despite the fact that it has not been accurately quantified, and awareness of it has prompted people to adopt a more plant-based diet.
- The isolates segment accounted for a significant share in 2024 and is anticipated to grow at a rapid pace over the forecast period.
The United Kingdom pea derivatives market is segmented by protein type into isolates, concentrates, textured, and hydrolysate. Among these, the isolates segment accounted for a significant share in 2024 and is anticipated to grow at a rapid pace during the forecast period.
