Inositol is a naturally occurring nutrient that is usually classified as a carbocyclic polyol. The most common form is sometimes referred to as myo-inositol. In the human body, it plays a major role in preventing the collection of fats in the liver, as well as promoting healthy hair growth. The presence of the nutrient also aids in efficient processing of nutrients into the conversion of energy, which in turn helps the body to maintain a healthy metabolism. It also can be considered brain food, as the nutrient is necessary to properly nourish the brain.
Inositol industry concentration is high; most of the manufacturers are in China, Zhucheng Haotian Pharm is the largest manufacturer in the world with annual capacity of 410 MT in 2015. Other important suppliers are Falcon Wealth (Jilin), Suning Yuwei and Shandong Haishun Biologicals. Due to policy and wide application of the industry, the production of inositol will increase to 9768in 2016 from 5295T in 2011 with average growth rate of 13.23%
In consumption market, the global consumption value of inositol increases with the 2.01% average growth rate. Europe and China are the mainly consumption regions due to the bigger demand of downstream applications. In 2015, these two regions occupied 47.54% of the global consumption volume in total.
Inositol has mainly three types, which include food grade inositol, feed grade inositol and pharmaceutical grade. And each type has application industries relatively. With nutrition effect of inositol, the downstream application industries will need more inositol products. So, inositol has a huge market potential in the future. Manufacturers engaged in the industry are trying to produce high purity and good performance inositol through improving technology.
The major raw materials for inositol are corn or rice bran, and other auxiliary chemicals. Fluctuations in the price of the upstream product will impact on the production cost of inositol. The production cost of inositol is also an important factor which could impact the price of inositol. The inositol manufacturers are trying to reduce production cost by developing production method.
We tend to believe this industry is a rising industry, and the consumption increasing degree will show a smooth growth curve. In past five years, the price presents decreasing trend according to the economy development status and international competition. Also, there is decreasing trend in gross margin.
