Growing awareness of the potential physiological effects of caffeine is expected to drive the growth of the decaffeinated roasted coffee market in the coming years. Caffeine is a bitter stimulant found in the leaves and beans of the coffee plant and some other plants, known for its energizing effects. Increasingly, consumers are becoming aware of the health risks associated with excessive caffeine consumption and are opting for decaffeinated coffee as a healthier alternative. For example, in August 2022, a study conducted by the University of South Australia, an Australia-based public university, found that consuming six or more cups of coffee per day might reduce the risk of heart disease by up to 22%. Therefore, rising awareness of caffeine’s adverse effects is supporting the growth of the decaffeinated roasted coffee market.

The increasing global consumption of coffee is also expected to propel the decaffeinated roasted coffee market. Coffee is a widely consumed beverage made from roasted beans, valued for its rich flavor and energizing properties due to naturally occurring caffeine. Coffee consumption continues to rise as consumers adopt diverse drinking habits, experiment with specialty beverages, and increase at-home preparation. Decaffeinated roasted coffee benefits from this trend by providing the full flavor of coffee with reduced caffeine content, appealing to health-conscious consumers and those sensitive to caffeine. For instance, in March 2024, according to the International Coffee Organization, a UK-based intergovernmental body, global coffee consumption reached 0.1761 billion 60-kg bags in 2022/23, reflecting sustained global growth. Hence, rising coffee consumption is contributing to the expansion of the decaffeinated roasted coffee market.

Key companies in the decaffeinated roasted coffee market are expanding chemical-free, water-based decaffeination capacity - such as new Swiss Water Process production lines - to meet growing demand for high-quality decaf and address consumer concerns about solvent-based methods. Chemical-free water-based decaffeination uses only water, carbon filters, and controlled extraction to remove caffeine from green coffee beans without chemical solvents, preserving the coffee’s origin flavor and offering a clean-label decaf suitable for wellness-focused consumers. For instance, in September 2023, Swiss Water Decaffeinated Coffee Inc., a Canada-based specialty coffee company and premium green-coffee decaffeinator, launched its second decaffeination line at its Delta, British Columbia facility. This expansion consolidated all production at a single site, significantly increasing capacity for its proprietary Swiss Water® Process, improving scale efficiencies, and enabling more roasting customers to transition to chemical-free decaffeinated coffee as demand for premium decaf continues to rise.
