According to this latest publication from Meticulous Research®, the wheat protein market is expected to reach $9.5 billion by 2029, at a CAGR of 9.3% from 2022 to 2029. The growth of this market is driven by factors such as the increasing awareness about the benefits of nutrition and weight management, increased demand for plant-based products, and the rising demand from the food & beverage industry.

In addition, emerging economies and consumers' growing inclination toward vegan diets are expected to provide significant growth opportunities for wheat protein manufacturers.

Based on type, the wheat protein market is segmented into vital wheat gluten, wheat protein isolates, hydrolyzed wheat protein, and textured wheat protein. In 2022, the vital wheat gluten segment is estimated to account for the largest share of the wheat protein market.

Based on form, the wheat protein market is segmented into solid/dry and liquid. In 2022, the solid/dry segment is estimated to account for a larger share of the wheat protein market. The large market share of this segment is attributed to factors such as the growing demand for powdered wheat protein, ease of handling & transport, lower costs, lower chances of formulation errors, and their capability to maintain ingredient stability.
