Currently, with the increasing demand of overseas sucralose, Chinese producers have been actively operating their sucralose production lines or expanding their sucralose capacity since domestic sucralose producers effectively won the No.337-TA-604 investigation launched by Tate & Lyle in the US on 6 April 2009. And the export volume of sucralose has a rapid growth after 2009. China has witnessed booming sucralose export, revealed by CCM's Sweeterner China News.
The export volume showed a general trend of escalation, though it decreased a little in 2009 compared with that in 2008. Because of the 337 patent investigation which hit China's sucralose market from 2008 to 2009, producers in China exported less sucralose.
After Chinese producers won the investigation on 6 April 2009, domestic export has gradually recovered and a new export record is set in 2010. Since sucralose is widely used, the export is promoted with its increasing overseas demand. Generally, it is estimated that China's sucralose industry will develop gradually in the future.
When the processing construction projects of sucralose is finished and the capacity utilization is raised, the total capacity of sucralose will increase a lot. Because the price of sugar in China still stays at a high level even though the government has already taken action to stabilize it, more and more food producers will prefer to choose high intensity sweeteners(HIS), which can significantly decrease the production cost compared with that of using sugar. Therefore, this situation is favorable to the consumption of HIS.
With the development of sugar-free foods and the extensive application of HIS, the demand for sucralose both at home and abroad will grow in the next few years.
