Description:

Taurine is popular in developed countries for its indispensable role in strengthening nutrition. Driven by the increasing demand, taurine industry in China has kept developing in recent years, posting an increase of 27,639 tonnes in output with a CAGR of 36.1% from 2008 to 2010. The top five among couples of taurine manufacturers contributed to about 90% of China's total taurine output in 2010.



Taurine is an export-oriented product in China—almost 90% of the global taurine is produced by China, which is mainly exported to the US, Europe and Japan. During 2008 and 2010, China's export volume of taurine has been increasing quickly with a CAGR of 36.6%. A large amount of the product is used in beverages, pet foods and health care foods overseas every year. Different from the wide application overseas, in China taurine is mostly used in pharmaceuticals, beverages and foods, with consumption accounting for less than 20% of its total output in the past three years. However, the apparent consumption of taurine in China has been increasing rapidly in recent years for the surging demand from domestic market, especially the food and beverage industry.
