ReportsnReports | World Nutraceutical Ingredients Market to 2015


Demand to increase 7.2% annually through 2015World demand for nutraceutical ingredients will increase 7.2 percent annually to $23.7 billion in 2015. Substances with clinically confirmed health benefits and broad applications in foods, beverages, dietary supplements, and adult and pediatric nutritional preparations will provide the best growth opportunities.Global trends in nutraceutical ingredients will see the developing regions achieving much faster growth in both consumption and production than the developed regions. Increasing economic prosperity will enable countries such as China, Brazil, India, Mexico, Poland, Russia and South Korea to expand and diversify their food, beverage, nutritional and pharmaceutical industries. Based on projected investment levels in these industries and rising consumer income, China will evolve into the largest global producer and consumer of nutraceutical ingredients by 2020, passing up the United States and Western Europe. Because of maturing markets, the supply and demand of nutraceutical ingredients in the developed countries will increase more slowly than the average pace of the developing world. Nonetheless, food, beverage and drug makers in the developed economies will continue to pursue opportunities in conventional and specialty nutritional products and natural medicines. As a result, they will remain major customers for a broad range of nutraceutical ingredients.
Naturally derived substances to be fastest growing ingredients
Nutrients, including proteins, fibers and various specialized functional additives,will remain the top-selling group of nutraceutical ingredients. World demand for these substances will increase 6.7 percent annually to $10.4 billion in 2015.Proteins will post the fastest gains as food and beverage makers throughout the world introduce new high value-added nutritional preparations. Functional additives and fiber nutrients will also fare well in the global marketplace. Demand for these ingredients will gain upward momentum from increasing clinical evidence of health benefits and expanding specialty applications in health foods and beverages, dietary supplements and nutritional preparations.Naturally derived substances, consisting of herbal and botanical extracts and animal- and marine-based derivatives, will command the fastest growth among the three major groups of nutraceutical ingredients. World demand for these substances is projected to increase 8.9 percent annually to $7.3 billion in 2015. Omega-3 fish oils will lead gains, reflecting clinically proven cardiovascular benefits and expanding use in dietary supplements and nutritional therapies. The rising popularity of homeopathic remedies, coupled with widespread trends promoting preventive medicine and selftreatment, will impact favorably on global demand for numerous other natural nutraceutical ingredients, including cranberry, garlic, ginkgo biloba,ginseng and saw palmetto extracts.World demand for minerals and vitamins consumed in nutraceutical applications is forecast to reach $6.0 billion in 2015, up 6.2 percent annually from 2010. Wellestablished applications in food and beverage fortification, adult and pediatric nutritionals, and dietary supplements will underlie growth. Widespread acceptance of health and wellness benefits will keep minerals and vitamins among the most widely used nutraceutical ingredients.

World Cement Market to 2015 | ReportsnReports


World demand to rise 5.3% annually through 2015
Global demand for hydraulic cement is forecast to rise 5.3 percent per year to 4.3 billion metric tons in 2015, valued at $335 billion. Gains will be fueled by rising investments in infrastructure among the developing countries of the world, driven by economic growth and increasing per capita income levels. Additionally, there will be a substantial rebound in cement demand in industrialized markets such as the US and Western Europe.  However gains in demand through 2015 will lag the robust advances seen from 2005 to 2010, due in part to a deceleration in growth in the huge Chinese cement market.

Dominant Chinese market for cement is maturing
China, which accounts for 56 percent of world cement demand, is forecast to see product sales climb 4.9 percent per year through 2015 to 2.35 billion metric tons. This rate of growth will be about the same as the regional average but a deceleration from the 2005-2010 period. The maturing of the Chinese cement market, combined with a slowdown in the pace of construction spending gains, will serve to moderate the double-digit yearly demand growth exhibited from 2000 to 2010.
US to post strongest gains of any major cement market
The US will post the strongest demand gains — averaging 9.4 percent annually an expected robust recovery in residential construction spending.  Nonresidential building construction activity in the US will also rise after a period of decline and nonbuilding construction expenditures growth will accelerate, further bolstering overall cement sales.
Blended cement to further increase market share
Blended cement, the leading cement product type in 2010, is expected to further increase its share of the market total over portland cement and will account for more than 70 percent of all product consumption in 2015. Suppliers of blended cement will continue to benefit from its typically lower costs and positive environmental profile compared to straight portland cement. Cement firms are increasing the use of cementitious materials such as fly ash and blast furnace slag in their products, which reduces carbon dioxide emissions from the production of portland cement clinker.
Ready-mix concrete to be fastest growing market
Ready mix concrete will continue to be the fastest-growing market for cement through 2015, when it will account for 27 percent of global demand. Construction contractors will be the second largest market, followed by consumers, concrete products and other markets. While readymix dominates cement demand in developed world markets such as the US and Japan, in many industrializing countries sales to consumers or construction contractors are more common. This is changing rapidly, particularly in urban areas of China and India, where the efficiency benefits of ready-mix concrete are allowing this market to gain a larger portion of cement demand.
Study coverage
Details on these and other findings are presented in the new Freedonia industry study, World Cement, priced at $6300. It presents historical demand data for the years 2000, 2005 and 2010, as well as forecasts for 2015 and 2020 by cement type, market (e.g., ready-mix concrete, construction contractors, consumer, concrete products), world region and for 45 major countries. In addition, the study also considers key market environment factors, assesses global industry structure, evaluates company market share and profiles 42 industry players worldwide such as Anhui Conch Cement, Italcementi, CEMEX, HeidelbergCement and Holcim.

Alternative Powertrain Technologies in the European Diesel Locomotive and Railcar Market Strategic Analysis | ReportsnReports


ReportsnReports Add Frost & Sullivan Market Research Report ” Alternative Powertrain Technologies in the European Diesel Locomotive and Railcar Market Strategic Analysis” to its store.
Looming Emission Norm Deadlines Motivate Advances in Powertrain Technology for Diesel Locomotives and Railcars
The European stage IIIB emission directive for locomotives and railcars will be effective from the end of 2012. Stage IIIB norms require NOX and PM reduction of about 90.0 per cent from stage IIIA levels. Rolling stock and engine manufacturers are planning to use technologies such as exhaust gas recirculation to meet the emission norms. However, as competition heightens, additional alternative technologies are making their way into the rolling stock diesel powertrain. In all, 10,862 diesel locomotives and 9,314 diesel railcars (new orders and replacements combined) are expected to be delivered by 2020 across Europe.
“The increasing operational and maintenance costs of ageing fleet are pushing operators to place orders for new rolling stock, allowing allow for the replacement of locomotives and railcars that are close to retirement,” notes the analyst of this research. “Frost & Sullivan analysis has identified 2,326 diesel locomotives in France and Germany alone that are nearing or have crossed 40 years of service.” The average age of all diesel locomotives in France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom is approximately 37 years. There are 10,298 diesel locomotives in these countries that have been in active service for more than 30 years. As fuel costs have risen sharply in recent years, operators and leasing companies are aiming to procure the most energy-efficient and economic rolling stock in their fleet.
Novel Technologies and Business Strategies to Define Market Landscape
“Manufacturers feel that the cost of retrofitting a locomotive with a new engine, transmission and control systems are almost the same as purchasing a new state-of-the-art current generation locomotive,” remarks the analyst. “However, the biggest disconnect occurs between the demand for locomotives that the operators can afford and the supply that the manufacturers can deliver.” The major challenge faced by the diesel rolling stock industry is to accurately determine market size. Identification of market demand based on ageing stock, requirements and purchasing capabilities of budget-driven leasing agencies, operators and end users is a critical challenge for rail manufacturers.
To meet competition, manufacturers are offering new technologies in their rolling stock. It is expected that technologies like permanent magnet traction motors will become an industry standard by 2017. Manufacturers are incorporating new strategies in their business models as well. “Standardisation of design platforms for locomotives and railcars has gained prominence, eliminating the need for individual designs,” concludes the analyst. “They are being shipped off-the-shelf as they have now moved to modular concepts where changes in the product are made as per order requirements.”
