Non-starch Polysaccharide (NSP) Enzyme Market Report 2026

The non-starch polysaccharide (nsp) enzyme market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.07 billion in 2025 to $1.13 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.4%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growth in global livestock production, rising feed cost pressures, adoption of compound feed formulations, demand for improved nutrient absorption, expansion of commercial animal farming.

The non-starch polysaccharide (nsp) enzyme market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.36 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.8%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing protein consumption worldwide, focus on reducing antibiotic usage, advancements in enzyme engineering, growth of sustainable animal nutrition practices, rising demand for high performance feed additives. Major trends in the forecast period include rising adoption of enzyme based animal feed solutions, increasing demand for feed efficiency enhancement, growing focus on sustainable livestock nutrition, expansion of enzyme applications in poultry and swine feed, higher use of customized enzyme blends.

The non-starch polysaccharide (NSP) enzyme market is set to grow due to rising demand in the animal feed industry. Animal feed is a blend of ingredients formulated to provide essential nutrients for the health, growth, and productivity of livestock and poultry. The increasing demand in this sector is driven by expanding global meat consumption and the growth of livestock farming. NSP enzymes play a crucial role in animal feed by breaking down complex carbohydrates, thereby improving nutrient digestibility and enhancing overall animal health and growth. For example, the Department of Agriculture, Environment, and Rural Affairs reported in March 2024 that animal feed deliveries in quarter 4 of 2023 increased by approximately 15.5% compared to quarter 3, underscoring the sector's growth and its impact on NSP enzyme market demand.

Leading companies in the non-starch polysaccharide (NSP) enzyme market are concentrating on the development of new enzyme products, including feed enzymes, to enhance nutrient digestion and make animal feed more cost-effective and sustainable. A feed enzyme is a specialized protein that aids in the digestion of nutrients in animal feed, improving feed efficiency and overall animal health. For example, in October 2024, Huvepharma, a pharmaceutical company based in Bulgaria, introduced Huvezym neXo to tackle key challenges in animal nutrition and feed efficiency, particularly for monogastric species like poultry and pigs. This innovative enzyme complex, containing a mix of xylanase, xyloglucanase, and cellulase, improves the digestibility of complex fibers, enhancing nutrient availability and optimizing feed efficiency. Given the rising cost of feed and growing regulatory pressure for sustainable practices, Huvezym® neXo provides a cost-effective solution, allowing producers to use alternative raw materials without compromising animal health or productivity.

In March 2024, Novus International Inc., a US-based leader in animal health and nutrition, acquired BioResource International Inc. (BRI) to strengthen its customer service capabilities and advance innovation, particularly in fermentation technology. BRI is recognized for its expertise in providing NSP enzymes and related solutions for the animal feed industry.
