Rising Adoption of Plant-Based Meat Alternatives Set to Enhance Demand for Textured Wheat Protein
Textured wheat protein, commonly referred to as wheat meat, wheat gluten, or seitan, has long been a favored plant-based protein alternative for those seeking meat substitutes. A study published in the journal Foods in 2021 highlighted a rising global demand for meat alternatives, including textured wheat protein, largely influenced by health, ethical, and environmental concerns surrounding meat consumption. Additionally, a 2019 survey conducted by the International Food Information Council revealed that 22% of U.S. consumers reported using plant-based meat substitutes, such as textured wheat protein, at least once a week.
As a result, the demand for textured wheat protein is surging worldwide, fueled by the growing trend of plant-based diets and an increasing interest in sustainable and ethical food options.
Enhancing Pellet Quality with Wheat Protein: A Key Driver for Market Growth
In the pet food sector, wheat gluten is utilized for its excellent water absorption and fat-binding capabilities, enhancing both yield and product quality. Its distinctive binding properties contribute to superior pellet formation. A significant factor driving the wheat protein market is the rising demand for organic and premium food options. The US Department of Agriculture reports a rapid expansion in the plant-based pet food market, with sales increasing by 27% in 2020 compared to the previous year, totaling USD 600 million. According to the Pet Food Institute, which represents pet food manufacturers, wheat gluten serves as a high-quality protein source that pets can easily digest. Additionally, it is recognized as a sustainable and environmentally friendly choice for pet food production.
Wheat Gluten Expected to Lead Market Growth Throughout the Forecast Period.
Wheat gluten boasts a distinct functionality, maintaining its structural integrity even after cooking, with no direct functional competitors. It finds application in diverse areas, including bakery items, meat products, pasta, and pet foods. In baking, the strength of gluten is crucial for bread-making, significantly influencing the dough's ability to rise and retain its texture. Additionally, China stands out as a leading producer and consumer of wheat gluten.

This study considers countries including the US, Canada, and Mexico. In the US, the market is fueled by rising consumer awareness of protein's dietary importance, which has, in turn, spurred demand for functional foods and beverages. The adaptability of wheat protein has maintained its demand in the baking sector, resulting in steady consumption growth. Additionally, advancements in research and technology related to hydrolyzed wheat protein have contributed to a long-term trend of increasing wheat protein consumption in the US. However, the growing focus on gluten intolerance poses a challenge to the wheat protein market in this region. The appealing functional profile, low carbon footprint, and cost-effectiveness of wheat-based proteins are significant factors promoting their use, especially in baked goods.
