Industrial Enzymes Market - Forecasts from 2025 to 2030

The industrial enzymes market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.16%, reaching a market size of US$12.37 billion in 2030 from US$8.84 billion in 2025.

Industrial enzymes are a form of commercial enzymes, which is used across multiple industries, like pharmaceuticals, food & beverages,biofuels, and chemical productions. Various types of industrial enzymes are available across the market, including aminopeptidase, lipases, pectinases, and xylanases, among many others. These enzymes offer multiple benefits in multiple industries. They are fully biodegradable and enhance the efficiency and productivity of processes. Industrial enzymes are also easy to manipulate genetically and offer product recovery. It is also easy and cheaper to produce and reduces the carbon sources.

The growing global demand for the chemical sector will propel the industrial enzymes market expansion during the forecasted timeline. In the chemical industry, industrial enzymes are mainly used in the process of specific catalysts. The global demand for chemicals has witnessed constant growth over the past few years. The American Chemistry Council, Inc., in its report, stated that the volume of chemical output grew by 2.2% in 2024, compared to 2023, which recorded a decline of 1.3% in volume output.

Similarly, BASF SE, a global leader in chemical production, reported in its chemical industry that global chemical production will witness a growth of 2.7% in 2024. The company further stated that in 2024, chemical production, excluding the pharmaceutical sector, in China witnessed a growth of 4%, followed by 3% in other parts of Asia. The South American and European Union regions witnessed a growth of 1.3% and 0.8%, respectively.

Industrial enzymes market drivers

The increase in the global pharma product landscape is contributing to the industrial enzymes market expansion

In drugs and medicine, various types of enzymes like papain, alteplase, lysozyme, and lipase. These enzymes help in the cure and reduction of various cases like anti-inflammatory, lower cholesterol, and others. The rise in the global drug and pharma industry is expected to boost the global demand for industrial enzymes in the market.

Moreover, the global pharma and drug industry has witnessed a significant increase that can be credited to the increase in the global healthcare infrastructure and the rise in the cases of various diseases. In this global trade of pharmaceutical products, countries like Germany, Switzerland, Ireland, and the USA are among the biggest traders of the products.

Industrial Enzymes Market Geographical Outlook

North America is witnessing exponential growth during the forecast period.

The United States industrial enzyme market is growing in the coming years due to a favourable business environment where it supports the enzyme manufacturers and users through pro-business policies, advanced biotechnology infrastructure, and increasing demand for sustainable solutions across industries like biofuels, food & beverages, and pharmaceuticals.

Furthermore, the demand for industrial enzymes in the U.S. food and beverage sector will grow as there is an increase in more natural, clean-label, and sustainable food processing solutions. Some of the most common uses include increased production efficiency, improved texture, flavour, and shelf life, and reduced processing times in applications such as baking, dairy, brewing, and juice production. Additionally, consumer preferences for healthier and minimally processed foods will increasingly lead manufacturers to adopt enzyme-based solutions, thus boosting market growth.
