Collagen Sector: Growth Drivers and Challenges

Growth Drivers

  • Growing demand for collagen in the cosmetics industry - Collagen is found in shampoo, facial creams, soaps, body lotions, and several other products. Hydrolyzed collagen is specifically used for skin and hair care formulations. This variety of collagen contributes a lot to the personal care sector when combined with surfactants and active washing agents. It enhances the efficiency of shampoos and shower gels and is also used in facial creams and nutritional supplements for bone and cartilage regeneration and reconstructive procedures. As per the recent report, hydrolyzed collagen is mainly used in the cosmetics industry and the range is from 0.2-2.0%. It is used in the water phase with a concentration of 1-10%.
  • Increasing consumption of collagen in gelatin production - Collagen is the most abundant protein found in the animal and human body, and it is widely used in gelatin production. Gelation is widely adopted by the food industry as a main ingredient in desserts, candies, and other processed food products, driving the growth of the collagen market. To meet the rising demand for processed food, the demand for gelatin is rising progressively as it is used as a food additive. There’s one category of collagen which is vegan used for producing gluten-free food for people who consume plant-based food. The latest report published in 2023, states that around 79 million people consume plant-based food/gluten-free food across the world.

Challenges

  • Outbreak of diseases due to collagen production - Various diseases such as transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE), foot and mouth disease (FMD), and bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) mostly occurring in terrestrial animals focuses attention on concerns regarding the use of collagen and its effects on the health of consumers.
  • Purification of collagen is a laborious and high-priced process.
  • Slaughter of animals such as pigs, cattle, fish, and poultry raise concern for people who stick to their religious restrictions that forbid the consumption of animal-derived products.
