A beverage stabilizer is a product that prevents degradation in beverages. It helps prevent sedimentation by keeping ingredients suspended in the solution. Beverage stabilizers also add viscosity to enhance flavor and improve consistency of beverages. Modified starch, pectin, carrageenan, casein inulin, and hydrocolloids are among the most commonly used beverage stabilizers. The worldwide demand for beverage stabilizers is on the rise, and this is governed by the performance quality and functionality of the products. Increase in demand for beverage stabilizers is one of the factors that support beverage stabilizer market development and significant innovation.

The growth of the beverage stabilizer industry is driven by the increase in number of QSRs and development of food & beverage industry. Moreover, there is an increase in the usage of beverage stabilizers due to rise in the consumption of packaged and convenience goods around the world. This further fosters the growth of the global beverage stabilizer market. However, fluctuating raw material prices act as the major restraint for this market. On the contrary, rise in consumption of functional beverages is expected to provide ample opportunities for the beverage stabilizer market growth in the future.

According to Shankar Bhandalkar, Senior Research Analyst, Food & Beverage at Allied Market Research, “There has been a rise in the number of quick service restaurants (QSRs) all around the world owing to increase in affinity of consumers toward fast food. Many fast food restaurants depend on beverage stabilizers to prolong the shelf life and improve visual appeal of food items. Thus, increase in affinity toward fast food positively impacts the beverage stabilizer market growth.”
