KEY MARKET INSIGHTS

Play Audio Listen to Audio Version

The global marine collagen market size was valued at USD 1,007.40 million in 2022 and is projected to grow from USD 1,080.40 million in 2023 to USD 1,919.30 million by 2030, exhibiting a CAGR of 8.56% during the forecast period.


Marine collagen is extracted from fish and other marine organisms and is the most bioavailable source of collagen in the market. Consuming type 1 marine collagen, which is found in bones, tendons, skin, ligaments, hair, teeth, and nails, can make the skin look firmer and smoother, boosting skin elasticity. Therefore, owing to these benefits, the demand for marine collagen from various industries, such as cosmetics, supplements, and others is increasing considerably.


Marine collagen-infused functional foods, skin care products, and dietary supplements are gradually being recognized for their role in food security and nutrition. They not only act as major protein sources, but also as a provider  of omega-3 essential fatty acids and bioavailable micronutrients. Prioritizing and integrating fisheries and aquaculture by-products in various industries should play a vital role in the marine collage market by developing new products for the consumer. Therefore, it creates opportunities for manufacturers in different industries to invest in research and development, and make a product according to consumer needs.


COVID-19 IMPACT


Sudden Disruptions in Global Supply Chain Affected Market Growth During COVID-19


The market mainly depends on the seafood industry as most of it is prepared as a by-product of marine organisms caught during fishing. For more than two years, the seafood and marine supply chain was forced to adjust and adapt to the unprecedented conditions of the COVID-19 pandemic. In the diverse landscape that makes up this market, fishermen, collagen industries, communities, and governments had developed a range of strategies, innovations, and coping mechanisms to ensure business survival.


The COVID-19 pandemic restricted the supply of all merchandise worldwide in the 2nd quarter of 2020, which created disruptions in the supply chain, and hence, many products were not available in the markets. This led to a decrease in the supply of raw materials and finished products, affecting the overall revenue of market, which recorded average growth in 2020. There were varied industry outcomes in the span of two years while the COVID-19 spread was at its peak. One of them is mentioned below:


Increase in proteins and wellness food consumption:


Although there was a decline in the growth of the seafood market, protein consumption increased since the COVID-19 pandemic due to the need to keep the body strong and immune to various diseases. Even though the consumer shift toward dietary proteins and functional food consumption was already taking place in the industry, the pandemic accelerated this trend. Consumers concerned about getting infected by COVID-19 consumed more dietary protein products than ever before. This can be attributed to consumers showing more preference for products produced specially for health, wellness, and sustainability.


LATEST TRENDS


Sustainable Marine Collagen-based Products to Emerge As Major Market Trend


The rising trend of companies adopting vertical integration strategy to ensure sustainability is maintained in every step of product development and distribution, from fishing to processing and logistics. This factor is predicted to positively influence the marine collagen market growth. Developing and incorporating technologies that can bring more transparency to fish-catching methods can propel the demand for fish collagen products among environment-conscious consumers who prefer sustainable and eco-friendly products. Obtaining accreditation and eco-labels for products from reputed councils and organizations that set standards for sustainable fishing, such as the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC), can be a vital marketing strategy for industry players who want to remain prominent in the global market at present and in the future. Moreover, a considerable percentage of the global population is becoming increasingly determined to save oceans and hence, is switching to seafood sourced only by using sustainable methods, such as pole and line fishing. To respond to these evolving consumer demands, companies can reform their supply chain and bring more transparency to their product labeling.

DRIVING FACTORS


Rising Demand for Marine Collagen in Cosmetics Industry to Drive Market Growth


Collagen is one of the primary components in many cosmetic formulations as it is a natural humectant and moisturizer. The cosmetics industry continuously seeks innovative and effective ingredients to make products more appealing to customers. The manufacturers try to make innovative products to respond to customers’ demand for more natural ingredients. For instance, in January 2019, ActivLayr, a New Zealand-based company, produced marine type of collagen using nanofiber technology and electrospinning.


The companies operating in the market are launching products offering additional benefits to customers. For example, Cobiso manufactures hydro-marine collagen for the skin. It is rich in amino acids and specific polypeptides and recommended for cosmetic preparations designed for skin care, products for baths & showers, and hair treatments. It has several benefits, such as strengthening cutaneous elasticity, improving skin comfort, and making the surface of the skin and hair softer and smoother. Hence, the demand for this collagen has increased in the cosmetics industry.


Increasing Demand for Collagen Products from Nutraceuticals Industry to Boost Market Growth


The changing lifestyle patterns and increasing urbanization have caused a major shift in consumers' dietary patterns and food choices. Over the last few years, consumers have become more inclined toward healthy and nutritious food options, driving the demand for fish collagen products from the nutraceuticals industry. Consumers are choosing dietary supplements containing natural and beneficial ingredients, which will increase the use of marine collagen in the nutraceuticals industry.


The diversity of organisms in the marine ecosystem presents a reservoir of a wide variety of natural compounds, and every year, plenty of novel marine molecules and their biological potential are identified. Identification of new elements and their clinical trials proving the beneficial values of organisms allow their use in functional foods, nutraceuticals, therapeutic agents, and pharmaceuticals. In November 2022, PB Leiner's joint venture with Hainan Xiangtai Group was announced to bring fish collagen peptides to the global market. The motive behind the collaboration was to expand PB Leiner's Solugel collagen peptides portfolio. Marine collagen peptide is an active health-promoting ingredient offering anti-aging properties and supporting bone & joint health.


RESTRAINING FACTORS


High Cost of Marine Collagen-based Products to Restrain Market Growth


Production of collagen-based products requires technological advancements and intense R&D activities, such as fabricating collagen scaffolds for tissue engineering and using nanomaterials for drug delivery by utilizing marine collagen as a key ingredient. Its biocompatibility, abundance, and biodegradability are the reasons for its diverse use in clinical applications. Therefore, the use of high-end technologies in its production increases the price of the final product to some extent, restraining the market growth. Tariff escalation happens when there are higher import duties on semi-processed products than raw materials and much higher duties on finished products. Marine collagen products have high import duties.


Moreover, regions, such as Europe and North America greatly rely on the import of collagen for manufacturing marine collagen-based products, but high import duties raise the price of the final products in the market. The high import cost for collagen products removes middle-income group consumers from these products, making them choose cheaper alternatives, such as bovine collagen.


SEGMENTATION


By Category Analysis


Fish-based Collagen to Gain Momentum Due to Its Nutritional Benefits


Based on category, the global market is segmented into fish, algae, and others. The fish segment holds the single largest market share and the demand for marine collagen sourced from fish is rising, and fish collagen-based supplements are high in protein, vitamins, and minerals. This type of collagen contains amino acids, including proline, glycine, and glutamine, that help strengthen and rebuild the delicate lining of the digestive tract. Moreover, fish collagen helps decrease wrinkles and the appearance of cellulite in the skin. Collagen manufacturers in the market are collaborating with fish collagen manufacturing companies to increase their presence and expand their product portfolios. In December 2022, the Thai Union invested in the U.K.-based collagen medical biotech startup Jellagen. Investing in Jellagen opened doors for the Thai Union to explore areas of sourcing and processing marine by-products jointly.


Demand for algae-based collagen is expected to rise steadily in the coming years due to its nutritional benefits. Algae contains the three vital nutrients needed for collagen production and all the essential amino acids that make it a complete protein used to make collagen.

By Souce Analysis


Bones and Tendons to Become Popular Sources Owing to High Collagen Concentration


Based on source, the global market is segmented into bones & tendons, skin, and others. The bones & tendons segment held the largest market share. In fish, the weight of bones and tendons is higher than that of the other parts, so the collagen in bones and tendons is high, almost above 50 to 60% of the total collagen content in the fish. Therefore, the extraction of collagen is mainly from bones and tendons.


Fish skin has complex structural proteins that maintain the flexibility and strength of the skin, ligaments, bones, joints, muscles, tendons, gums, eyes, blood vessels, nails, and hair. Therefore, using fish skin waste as a source of collagen can make it a great alternative collagen source.


Type 1 collagen derived from fish is in more demand than the other type and sourced from bones and tendons, and is amply found in the scales and skin of various fresh and saltwater fish,.


By Form Analysis


Demand for Marine Collagen Powder to Rise Due to Its Strong Demand in Various End-Use Industries


Based on form, the market is segmented into powder and liquid. The powder form holds a major market share due to the robust demand for manufacturer-made powder-based marine collagen products in dietary supplements, skin care, and other products. Moreover, the powder form is the most popular type of collagen among consumers.


Powder collagen supplements help strengthen bones, hair, nails, and joints. They also help address gut and digestion issues. Due to these benefits, their demand is expected to increase in the coming years.


By Application Analysis


Product Use to Rise in Dietary Supplements Owing to Its Rich Protein Content


Based on application, the market is segmented into dietary supplements, functional food & beverages, cosmetics, and others. The dietary supplements segment holds the largest market share. Collagen is now being incorporated as a dietary supplement and marketed for its anti-aging and health-promoting benefits.

The market in North America is mainly analyzed across three major countries: the U.S., Canada, and Mexico. These countries constitute a significant share of the region’s overall economic and industrial growth and are the largest markets for collagen products. In North America, the growing concern over health and environmental sustainability has pushed the demand for value-added and sustainably sourced fish. There has been a significant increase in consumers who prefer to buy Marine Stewardship Council (MSC)-certified seafood by-products over non-certified ones. To deal with this emerging demand, manufacturers and suppliers across the region are focusing on improving the catching methods used for fishing, obtaining certification from reputed marine product regulatory authorities, and bringing more transparency in product labeling.


Europe is a growing region in the global market due to huge imports from countries that are leading marine resource-providers, such as Indonesia, the Philippines, Mauritius, and the rest of Europe.

The modern lifestyle of consumers has remarkably increased the demand for nutritional products in Brazil and Argentina. The growing trend of natural nutrition and high-protein diet has significantly influenced the market in the region. Manufacturers and processors are focused on introducing new products and investing in South America-based companies to increase their regional presence.


The rising popularity of cosmetic products and increasing disposable income are driving the market in the Middle East & Africa due to the awareness of its nutritional benefits among consumers.
