Non-starch Polysaccharide (NSP) Enzyme Global Market Report 2025

The non-starch polysaccharide (nsp) enzyme market size has grown steadily in recent years. It will grow from $1.02 billion in 2024 to $1.07 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.7%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to animal nutrition efficiency, human health and nutrition, agricultural waste utilization, regulatory support and policies, and market demand for plant-based products.

The non-starch polysaccharide (nsp) enzyme market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.31 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.1%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the growth of plant-based diets, expansion of biofuel production, rising global population, climate change mitigation efforts, economic factors, and cost efficiency. Major trends in the forecast period include the growth of plant-based diets, expansion of biofuel production, rising global population, climate change mitigation efforts, economic factors, and cost efficiency.

The forecast of 5.1% growth over the next five years reflects a modest reduction of 0.7% from the previous estimate for this market. This reduction is primarily due to the impact of tariffs between the US and other countries. This is likely to directly affect the US by increasing prices for animal feed efficiency enhancers, sourced from Denmark and India, leading to higher poultry and swine production costs. The effect will also be felt more widely due to reciprocal tariffs and the negative effect on the global economy and trade due to increased trade tensions and restrictions.

The non-starch polysaccharide (NSP) enzyme market is set to grow due to rising demand in the animal feed industry. Animal feed is a blend of ingredients formulated to provide essential nutrients for the health, growth, and productivity of livestock and poultry. The increasing demand in this sector is driven by expanding global meat consumption and the growth of livestock farming. NSP enzymes play a crucial role in animal feed by breaking down complex carbohydrates, thereby improving nutrient digestibility and enhancing overall animal health and growth. For example, the Department of Agriculture, Environment, and Rural Affairs reported in March 2024 that animal feed deliveries in quarter 4 of 2023 increased by approximately 15.5% compared to quarter 3, underscoring the sector's growth and its impact on NSP enzyme market demand.

Leading companies in the non-starch polysaccharide (NSP) enzyme market are concentrating on the development of new enzyme products, including feed enzymes, to enhance nutrient digestion and make animal feed more cost-effective and sustainable. A feed enzyme is a specialized protein that aids in the digestion of nutrients in animal feed, improving feed efficiency and overall animal health. For example, in October 2024, Huvepharma, a pharmaceutical company based in Bulgaria, introduced Huvezym neXo to tackle key challenges in animal nutrition and feed efficiency, particularly for monogastric species like poultry and pigs. This innovative enzyme complex, containing a mix of xylanase, xyloglucanase, and cellulase, improves the digestibility of complex fibers, enhancing nutrient availability and optimizing feed efficiency. Given the rising cost of feed and growing regulatory pressure for sustainable practices, Huvezym® neXo provides a cost-effective solution, allowing producers to use alternative raw materials without compromising animal health or productivity.

In March 2024, Novus International Inc., a US-based leader in animal health and nutrition, acquired BioResource International Inc. (BRI) to strengthen its customer service capabilities and advance innovation, particularly in fermentation technology. BRI is recognized for its expertise in providing NSP enzymes and related solutions for the animal feed industry.

Non-starch polysaccharide (NSP) enzymes are specialized enzymes designed to break down complex carbohydrates found in plant cell walls, enhancing their digestibility and nutritional value in animal feed. This process contributes to improved animal growth and health, ultimately aiming to optimize feed efficiency, reduce costs, and promote sustainability in livestock production.

The primary types of NSP enzymes include soluble and insoluble varieties. Soluble NSP enzymes act on non-starch polysaccharides to break them down into simpler sugars. These enzymes are derived from various sources such as plants, microbes, and animals, and find application across diverse industries including food and beverages, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, animal feed, biofuels, textiles, and others.

Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report’s Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.

The escalating U.S. tariffs and rising trade tensions in spring 2025 are expected to significantly affect the chemicals sector, which is facing a disproportionate impact - particularly from tariffs on petrochemicals and intermediates, where affordable domestic alternatives are limited. Specialty chemical producers, who rely heavily on Chinese raw materials, are encountering production disruptions. Meanwhile, fertilizer manufacturers are seeing their profit margins squeezed due to tariffs on phosphate imports. In response, companies are increasing investments in R&D for bio-based alternatives, forming procurement alliances to strengthen purchasing power, and relocating production to tariff-neutral countries like Saudi Arabia.
