The global gelatin market demand was 434.7 kilo tons in 2017. Increase in demand for clean label products and appetite for functional foods, derived from natural sources is a key factor behind the growth of the global gelatin market size.
Global Gelatin Market Size, 2015-2025 (Kilo Tons, USD Billion)
Gelatin is defined as a denatured protein, developed from collagen (a constituent of connective tissue and bones of animals) and is widely used as a pure protein ingredient in the food industry on account of its exceptional gelling, emulsifying, binding and stabilizing properties. Increasing consumer inclination towards protein-rich diets, dietary supplements has enhanced the use of collagen peptide in the food and beverage industry. The surge in demand for processed foods and energy drinks owing to changing lifestyles has spurred the global gelatin market size. Also, developing food processing industry and general lifestyle diseases has driven a paradigm shift in consumers towards demand for nutraceuticals and functional foods, since these food categories aid in averting age-related diseases. Also, collagen utilization in wound healing is one of the emerging gelatin market trends experimented on account of the increasingly obese and geriatric population globally. Also, the rising aged population with increasing awareness towards health consciousness has led to a demand for low fat, healthy and high protein foods, thus, supplementing the need for gelatin-based products.
Global Gelatin Market Value Share, By Raw Material, 2017 (%)
On the basis of raw material, pig skin holds the major share of the global gelatin market with a projected revenue CAGR of 4.9% from 2018 to 2025. Pig skin contains a large amount of collagen, hence it is utilized for manufacturing gelatin on a large scale. The simple production process, less pretreatment time and superior quality of the product has made pig skin an ideal source of the raw material.
Apart from this, bovine hides is another potential segment of the global gelatin market. Easy availability of cattle skin from slaughterhouses and leather industry is another key aspect behind the growth of global gelatin market size. However, gelatin from sources such as pig raises the sociocultural concern of not being halal and becomes unacceptable by multiple religions globally. Thus, rising interest in the incorporation of by-products from fish as a source has emerged as one of the upcoming gelatin market trends since the past few years.
Gelling, water binding, and protective colloid properties along with compatibility with milk proteins have made gelatin an excellent stabilizer in the dairy industry. As a stabilizer, gelatin surpassed 40% of the market revenue share in 2017. Also, protective colloid action gives a smooth texture and is most effective in preventing separation. It is often added to cultured dairy products in small amounts to provide a smooth body.
Photographic industry utilizes large quantities of gelatin in a wide array of applications. Photography application is growing with a CAGR of 5.1% from 2018 to 2025. Gelatin utilized is majorly extracted from crushed beef bone on account of the inherent photographic features of the raw material. As per ongoing gelatin market trends, photographic gelatin is widely used in the consecutive layers of a photographic product such as the sub-coating layer, top coating layer, silver halide crystal containing emulsion layer and non-curl layers.
Europe held the largest market share and accounted for market revenue of USD 649.9 million in the global gelatin market 2017. Implementation of stringent regulatory policies pertaining to the prevention of the spread of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) has supported the growth of global gelatin market. Germany and France are poised to be the leading consumers of gelatin in Europe, collectively surpassing a market share for over 50%. Apart from this, demand in the North America market is also expected to rise in the near future on account of rapid growth in photography, nutraceuticals, and cosmetic applications.
The Asia Pacific market is expected to rise significantly in the near future on account of the increasing use of collagen in Japan. Increasing gelatin production along with heavy demand for edible gelatin among confectionery and delicatessen products is expected to provide a significant opportunity for the growth of Asia Pacific gelatin market.
Key manufacturers in the global gelatin market are majorly involved in strengthening their product portfolio and market reach in order to maintain goodwill in the market. Some of the leading manufacturers of gelatin include Tessenderlo Group, Rousselot, Capsugel, Nitta Gelatin Inc., Catelent Inc., Weishardt, Sterling Gelatin, Norland Products Inc., and Roxlor LLC.
