세계의 식이섬유 시장 : 기회, 성장 촉진요인, 산업 동향 분석, 예측(2025-2034년)

The Global Food Fibers Market was valued at USD 8.1 billion in 2024 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 9.1% to reach USD 19.4 billion by 2034. Food fibers, commonly known as dietary fibers, are indigestible plant-based carbohydrates that offer a variety of health benefits, particularly in digestive wellness, blood sugar regulation, and appetite control. These fibers are naturally present in fruits, legumes, vegetables, and grains, and are increasingly included in a wide range of consumables like dairy alternatives, fortified drinks, and bakery products. As global consumer preferences shift toward functional and health-forward eating, the market continues to gain momentum.

The trend is further amplified by the push for plant-based living, growing awareness of gut microbiome health, and supportive policies encouraging fiber-enhanced labeling and formulation. New innovations in fiber extraction and incorporation-such as microencapsulation and high-efficiency extrusion-are opening the door for more advanced and appealing food products. Manufacturers are strategically aligning with these developments to meet the growing demand for natural, prebiotic-rich, clean-label solutions. The rapid adoption of functional fibers globally, backed by evolving consumer lifestyles and nutritional awareness, is paving the way for robust growth in this industry.

The soluble fibers held a 56.5% share in 2024, contributing USD 4.6 billion. These types of fibers, which include inulin, gums, and pectins, are widely used in foods and beverages because of their ability to support gut health by feeding beneficial microbes. Their use extends to plant-based milks and fermented beverages, where they enhance both texture and nutritional density. In the food manufacturing process, soluble fibers also improve product stability and mouthfeel, especially in reduced-sugar or dairy-free options. These fibers serve dual purposes, acting as both functional nutrients and sensory enhancers in various formulations across the food sector. Their rising inclusion in daily diets reflects how consumer interest in digestive and metabolic health is transforming formulation strategies within food production.

The bakery and confectionery segment held a 40.2% share, reaching USD 3.3 billion in 2024. This segment remains a dominant application area for food fibers, thanks to their growing use in items like baked snacks, whole grain breads, and cereals. Dietary fibers in baked goods improve texture, increase satiety, and align with the clean-label movement that avoids artificial additives. Confectionery manufacturers also integrate functional fibers to lower sugar and calorie content without compromising taste or texture. The surge in demand for high-fiber snack options and whole-grain bakery products continues to push innovation, especially across regions like Asia-Pacific and North America where consumer demand for wellness-oriented products is soaring.

Asia Pacific Food Fibers Market held a 42.5% share in 2024. This region's leadership is driven by increasing consumer education on digestive health, a swelling middle-class population, and rapid growth in functional food and beverage categories. Countries such as Japan, China, South Korea, and India are witnessing a transformation in dietary habits toward more fiber-rich, plant-centric foods. Ongoing support from health-conscious policies and national wellness initiatives is further driving growth. As plant-based and fiber-enhanced products gain popularity, especially in categories like baked goods and nutraceuticals, online commerce and digital retail infrastructure are playing a significant role in improving product access across diverse population groups in Asia Pacific.

Key companies shaping this Global Food Fibers Market include Archer Daniels Midland Company (ADM), Cargill, Incorporated, Roquette Freres SA, Tate & Lyle PLC, and Ingredion Incorporated. To stay competitive and expand their market share, leading companies in the food fibers sector are emphasizing innovation in fiber extraction and formulation. They are heavily investing in research to develop novel blends that are functional, easy to integrate, and have enhanced sensory properties. Businesses are also prioritizing sustainability by sourcing plant materials responsibly and improving processing efficiencies. Collaborations with food tech firms and nutrition-focused startups allow access to new markets and technologies. Moreover, brands are working to expand their clean-label offerings to align with evolving consumer expectations.
