With the hectic lifestyle and stressful working hours, consumers have less time to indulge in delicacies, and frozen foods are becoming increasingly important. Frozen food items get deteriorated easily and lose their nutritional value. Hence, to overcome this challenge both manufacturers and sellers of frozen food products lure towards the antifreeze proteins, which is boosting the growth of the market. Antifreeze proteins are used in the food & beverages industry to ensure uniform texture in items such as ice cream, frozen fish and meat, and frozen dough. Antifreeze proteins can also be used in the dairy, meat, and vegetable industries, as well as the confectionery industry. According to research company Food for Thought (FFT) before the pandemic, the European market for frozen potatoes by value was encouraging. The UK, France, and Germany had 53% of the total market of EUR 6.66 (USD 8) bn. On a consumption per capita basis, Ireland was the leading market with over 11kg per capita, in front of the UK with a little over 10kg and France with 8.8kg. Overall, Europe was consuming some 3.3 bn tons of frozen potatoes annually, before 2020.

Apart from food & beverage applications, antifreeze proteins have potential applications in organ transplants, vaccines, cryosurgery, and cosmetics, among others. The antifreeze proteins market is also driven by a rise in R&D activities and technological advancements to promote fish farming in extremely cold environments.

Kaneka Corporation, Aqua Bounty Technologies, Inc., Sirona Biochem, Unilever, Nichirei Corporation, A/F Protein Inc., ProtoKinetix, Inc., Shanghai Yu Tao Industrial Co., Ltd., Kodera Herb Garden Co., Ltd. are some of the prominent players operating in the antifreeze proteins market. Several M&As along with partnerships have been undertaken by these players to facilitate customers with hi-tech and innovative products.
