Collagen peptide is a cold-soluble and easily digested type of collagen. It is the essential building block that makes up about 30% of the human body's protein. Collagen peptide contains higher concentrations of glycine, hydroxyproline, and proline. Likewise, gelatin is primarily composed of two components, such as proline and amino acid glycine. It is derived from animal bones, lungs, and fibrous tissues. Gelatin is essential for proper hair, skin, and nail development, weight control, and optimal immune function.

Collagen and Gelatin Market Dynamics

The global collagen & gelatin market is growing due to the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, rapid growth in aging populations, and increased funding for regenerative medicines are essential factors driving the global demand for collagen & gelatin for regenerative medication. Moreover, emerging economies, such as Asia-Pacific and South America, offer significant opportunities in these regions, mainly due to increased life expectancy resulting in chronic diseases and increased meat production.

The rising prevalence of chronic diseases drives the growth of the market

Collagen & gelatin are present in the human body, particularly in the skin and bones. The normal development of collagen in the body declines after a certain age. Lack of collagen causes chronic diseases such as osteoporosis, bone and joint pain, chronic wounds, cardiovascular diseases, and other neurodegenerative disorders. These chronic diseases result in organ and tissue destruction, leading to the creation of treatments that can restore tissues.  For instance, according to the Centres for disease control and Prevention (CDC), the in United States, cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death globally, accounting for 697,000 people deaths per year in 2020.

Strict regulations and the presence of substitutes for collagen and gelatin

Collagen derived from bovine and porcine sources carries the risk of disease transmission, which is the primary constraint on the demand for collagen & gelatin. Another aspect that hinders the target market is the tight limitations on these supplements by the European Union. Moreover, the increasing use of biomaterials, which alternate to collagen & gelatin, is a significant challenge for the growth of the collagen & gelatin market in the forecast period.

COVID-19 Impact on Collagen and Gelatin Market Growth

COVID-19 harmed different markets around the world. Due to sudden locking restrictions and a ban on airlines, there is a split in the movement of supply chain and manufacturing units. These factors negatively disrupted market shares. Collagen has played a significant role in the war against diseases such as COVID-19 in recent studies. These results are beneficial in developing a drug or vaccine that is a critical part of the current situation. These attributes would boost the growth of the market in the future.
