Publish In: Jul 17, 2023

Chitosan is a type of deacetylated chitin, a major component found in marine animals. Chitosan has excellent biocompatibility, low allergen city, and biodegradability property which makes it suitable for various industrial applications. Chitosan has a wide range of applications across end-user industries such as agriculture, food &beverage, cosmetics, chemical, and pharmaceutical. Moreover, it is also used in the flocculants in the water treatment industry.

The global chitosan market is estimated to account for US$ 26.3 Bn in terms of value by the end of 2022.

Drivers:

High demand for organic cosmetic ingredients from the cosmetic industry is propelling the market growth of chitosan. The growing demand for safer and healthy ingredients due to growing awareness regarding the side effects associated with conventional cosmetic ingredients is further projected to foster the market growth of chitosan over the forecast period. Chitosan possesses exceptional skin moisturizing properties and prevents dehydration due to which it is used in anti-aging cosmetics creams.

Market Opportunities

The growing demand for chitosan from dietary supplements due to its various health advantage is expected to bring profitable opportunities in the near future. Moreover, chitosan-based dietary supplements can reduce body weight through a fat-binding mechanism. According to the vitro studies, chitosan binds fat molecules and bile acid to avoid absorption of the former by the body. The ingested chitosan binds with unwanted fat molecules inside the digestive system, which is then removed through the excretory system. Thus, the growing demand for chitosan-based dietary supplement applications will favor market growth in the near future.

Market Restraints

High raw material procurement competition due to animal feed manufacturers who source the same raw materials for feeding cattle, farm pigs, and other poultry animals is hindering market growth. This is also attributed to the high demand for meat among consumers which has led manufacturers of animal feed to demand considerable volumes of the same raw material. This has resulted in competition and a high cost of procurement, thereby inhibiting the market growth of chitosan over the forecast timeframe.
