Market Segment Insights

The pharmaceuticals segment is projected to expand at a high CAGR during the forecast period

Based on applications, the market is segregated into food & beverages, cosmetics, households, and pharmaceuticals. The pharmaceuticals segment held more than 50% of the total revenue in 2020.

Increasing consumer knowledge of product benefits, as well as a preference for organically manufactured products, is expected to drive the market during the projected period.
