Encapsulation in the convenience food sector is used for protecting encapsulated color or flavor in food products, thereby extending the lifecycle of food products over various product development stages and storage. Encapsulation can provide functional properties such as controlled release in predetermined environments. Encapsulated flavors are being used extensively in the convenience food sector for the controlled release of flavors and colors in food products, including tea bags, confectionery, instant drinks, and desserts. Active ingredients in food products are encapsulated for multiple reasons including isolating active ingredients form chemical effects of oxidizing and evaporation. The encapsulation also enables the controlled release encapsulated materials, which is an essential property in medicinal drugs and pesticides. The convenience food sector consists of food products designed to reduce preparation time for the end user. The convenience food sector has witnessed a substantial increase in demand in the past decade, and it is expected to increase significantly during the forecast period. The changing fast-paced lifecycle of individuals is the primary factor driving the demand for convenience food. Further, the growing urban population has also contributed significantly to driving the need for convenience food products. Such factors are expected to drive the demand for convenience food, thereby boosting the Middle East & Africa encapsulation market growth.
The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly disrupted the manufacturing sector in terms of operational efficiency, owing to extended lockdowns across the region, restrictions imposed on international trades, the shutdown of manufacturing units, travel bans, supply chain disintegration, shortage in the supply of raw materials, and many other factors. In the Middle East & Africa, South Africa had the most COVID-19 cases, followed by Saudi Arabia and the UAE. Various chemicals and materials companies remained closed due to lockdowns, resulting in a decrease in the sale of various products, thereby affecting the encapsulation market. However, the implementation of effective government policies in countries like the UAE has significantly revived the industrial activities across the region, which is projected to favor the growth of the encapsulation market in the Middle East & Africa.
