Product Innovation to Address Concerns Related to Margarine Ingredients Will Drive the Industrial Hard Margarine Market
Consumers are becoming increasingly conscious about what they eat. They are paying more attention to product labels owing to their preference for products with cleaner ingredients. Moreover, they avoid food with higher fat and calorie content to achieve their health goals. Margarine manufacturers are developing innovative products with improved quality and label claims to address the rising concerns related to the presence of trans fat, palm oil, and animal-based ingredients. Manufacturers are also developing new technologies to launch palm-free margarine with no undesirable flavors. Rapeseed oil and other alternatives to palm oil are associated with various challenges, including intense organoleptic properties, high oxidation potential, and individual processing requirements. In March 2021, Grüninger AG, a Swiss producer of industrial and commercial margarine, developed a new technology to launch palm-free, vegan/vegetarian margarine, in which off-note flavors are effectively masked. The new process developed by Grüninger AG helps in masking the undesirable flavors of palm oil alternatives by using the natural antioxidant derived from rosemary extract. Such new technologies are expected to provide potential growth opportunities to the manufacturers of industrial hard margarine.
