Global Glucoamylase Market Report
Market Overview
Glucoamylase is a glycoprotein enzyme with a molecular weight ranging between 60,000–100,000, containing mannose, glucose, galactose, and alduronic acid. It catalyzes the hydrolysis of starch and dextrin molecules at their non-reducing ends to yield glucose. Widely used as a biocatalyst in the food and beverage industry, glucoamylase plays a critical role in alcohol fermentation, starch sugar production, brewing, and distillation processes.
The global market is moderately fragmented, with China holding a dominant position due to its long history of enzyme production and strong industrial base. Continuous technological improvements, cost optimization, and circular production processes are shaping the industry’s evolution.
