The global feed encapsulation market is expected to reach USD 904.7 million by 2034, growing from an estimated USD 504.2 million in 2024, with a projected CAGR of 6.0% during the forecast period from 2024 to 2034.
Feed encapsulation is an innovative technology in animal nutrition that enhances the effectiveness of nutrient delivery. By coating bioactive compounds with a protective layer, it shields essential nutrients from external factors such as heat, moisture, and digestive enzymes. This protection ensures that nutrients remain stable and are released at the right time and location within the digestive system, ultimately improving their bioavailability.
Encapsulated feed additives also benefit from an extended shelf life due to their protective coating, which prevents the degradation of sensitive nutrients. This not only ensures the potency and effectiveness of these additives over time but also allows feed manufacturers to store and transport them more efficiently, reducing waste while maintaining quality.
Additionally, encapsulation enhances the palatability of animal feed by masking the unpleasant tastes and odors of certain additives. The coating neutralizes strong flavors and smells, making the feed more appealing to animals. As a result, animals are more likely to consume the feed, ensuring they receive the necessary nutrients without resistance, leading to improved feed intake and overall animal health. For example, young calves have shown a preference for compound feeds flavored with options such as "milky-vanilla" and "caramel biscuit."
