According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Food Grade Neutral Protease market size was valued at US$ 2258 million in 2025 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 3457 million by 2032 with a CAGR of 6.2% during review period.
In 2025, global sales of food-grade neutral protease reached 186,000 tons, with an average selling price of US$11,800 per ton. Food-grade neutral protease is a type of biological enzyme preparation with high catalytic activity in the pH range of 6.5 to 7.5. It is mainly derived from the fermentation broth of microorganisms such as Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus licheniformis, and is produced through processes such as extraction, purification, and spray drying. This product is used to hydrolyze food proteins, improve the tenderness of meat products, enhance the flavor of dairy products, and improve the solubility and functionality of plant proteins. It is also widely used in condiments, soy sauce fermentation, baked goods, protein beverages, and plant-based foods. The main upstream raw materials include corn glucose syrup, nitrogen sources (soybean meal hydrolysate, yeast extract), inorganic salts, and yeast fermentation broth. Suppliers are mostly large starch sugar companies and compound culture medium companies. Downstream customers include food processing plants, condiment companies, plant-based food companies, and compound additive factories. The global total production capacity is approximately 280,000 tons, with an industry gross profit margin of approximately 32% to 45%. In downstream consumption, soy sauce and condiments account for approximately 40%, plant-based protein drinks and meat products for approximately 30%, and baking applications for approximately 15%. Future demand growth will be driven by the expansion of plant-based foods, the upgrading of efficient fermentation of condiments, and clean labeling. Business opportunities are mainly reflected in the development of high-temperature resistant enzymes, high-activity low-dosage enzyme preparations, and cost reduction through continuous fermentation technology.
The food-grade neutral protease market exhibits a pattern of stable growth alongside premiumization. As the global food industry moves towards functional, health-oriented, and plant-based products, the demand for protein modification and hydrolysis continues to increase. Neutral proteases are playing an increasingly important role in meat tenderization, dairy flavor enhancement, soy sauce and condiment fermentation, and improving the solubility of plant proteins. Simultaneously, consumers' growing preference for natural, low-additive, and clean-label foods is driving companies to replace chemical modifiers with bio-enzymes, enhancing the irreplaceable role of these products in food formulations.
In terms of technological trends, the market is gradually upgrading from ordinary active enzymes to high-activity, heat-resistant, low-dosage, and substrate-selective enzyme preparations. High-end plant proteins, fermented condiments, and functional protein drinks are becoming the main growth markets, placing higher demands on the purity, stability, and controllability of enzyme preparations. The industry's competitive landscape is characterized by "international leading companies with technological advantages and domestic manufacturers with flexible responses," with high concentration in the high-end market and fierce competition in the mid-to-low-end market.
Overall, the food-grade neutral protease market benefits from food industry upgrades, the growth of plant-based proteins, and the trend towards health and clean labeling. Future growth potential mainly lies in the research and development of high-performance enzyme preparations, cost reduction in continuous fermentation processes, and customized solutions for novel food applications. High added value and technological barriers will be key factors for companies competing for market share.
