Non-dairy Creamer Market Driven by lactose Intolerance

A non-dairy creamer is a lactose-free substance that can be used as an alternative to dairy products (milk or cream) in various food and beverage products. To mimic the taste and texture of dairy products, non-dairy creamers use vegetable oils as a primary ingredient. These products are extensively used by people suffering from lactose intolerance and those that prefer plant-based ingredients over animal-derived products.

Global Non-dairy Creamer Market Trends and Market Drivers:

The major factor impacting the growth of non-dairy creamer market is lactose intolerance. As per the Genetics Home Reference, which is a part of the U.S. library of medicine, nearly 65% of the human population has a difficulty digesting lactose after infancy. This lactose intolerance is particularly prevalent in East Asia, with over 90% incidence of lactose intolerance among the people belonging to the region. Lactose intolerance is also very prominent among people belonging to Middle East, Italy, western parts of Africa and in Greece. The lactose-free nature of non-dairy creamers is an important factor in this regard.

The other factors that positively impact the market are the sensory and health benefits that are imparted by the use of non-dairy creamers. These health benefits are mostly centered on the fat-free and sugar-free claims of most commercial creamers. The increasing consumer demand for products with such claims is a major driver for the market. The nutritional profile of the underlying vegetable ingredients is also a key aspect of the market growth, with soy and nut-based creamers recording maximum growth. The wide variety of flavors in which non-dairy creamers are available is a major driver for the market.

High fructose corn syrup is a common sweetener in most non-dairy creamers. This ingredient is being increasingly perceived as a negative influence on the body as it aids in weight gain and obesity. This negative perception associated with a major ingredient is a drawback for the market.
