Market Highlights
Global Algae Protein Market is expected to project a notable CAGR of 8.7% in 2030.
Global Algae Protein Market to surpass USD 1694.73 million by 2030 from USD 764.85 million in 2020 at a CAGR of 8.7% in the coming years, i.e., 2021-30. This growth is anticipated due increasing mergers and acquisitions across various sectors which will create a worldwide demand for Algae Protein. When the world's population grows, so does the demand for protein, and as a result, sustainable plant-based protein sources are gaining popularity as a way to satisfy this rising demand. The high protein content of algae, as opposed to other plant-based protein sources such as soy and pea, is driving up global demand for Algae Protein.
Global Algae Protein Market: Segments
Spirulina segment to grow with the highest CAGR during 2020-30
Global Algae Protein Market is segmented by product into Spirulina, Chlorella, and Others. Spirulina's segment held the largest market share in the year 2020. Spirulina is a high-protein source of plant-based foods, containing approximately 50% to 70% protein by dry weight. Spirulina's low nucleic acid content, high vitamin, and mineral content, and simple digestibility of the cell wall relative to other microbes have attracted a variety of food and feed manufacturers. Due to its high protein, mineral, and vitamin content, spirulina is increasingly being used in nutraceuticals, food and pet food, and personal care items. In addition, the rising demand for plant-based nutrient sources is expected to boost spirulina demand in the coming years.
Dietary Supplements segment to grow with the highest CAGR during 2020-30
Global Algae Protein Market is divided by application into Dietary Supplements, Food Products, Animal Feed, and Others. Over the forecast period, the Dietary Supplements segment is projected to expand at the fastest pace. Over the forecast era, the expansion of the nutraceuticals industry in China, Japan, and India, owing to increasing domestic consumption of nutritional supplements, is expected to boost demand for the commodity. Spirulina and chlorella are common Algae Protein-based dietary supplements in the area, available in liquid, powder, tablet, capsule, and paste types. Changing habits, combined with an increase in chronic diseases, have resulted in a significant increase in demand for dietary supplements all over the world. As dietary supplement manufacturers gradually incorporate Algae Protein-based products into their product offerings, this trend is expected to support the global market.
Freshwater segment to grow with the highest CAGR during 2020-30
Global Algae Protein Market is segmented by source into freshwater and marine. Freshwater segment held the largest market share in the year 2020. EID Parry, Cyanotech Corporation, and other companies are growing algae in ponds and photobioreactors, mostly using freshwater. In the coming years, the freshwater algae segment is expected to grow due to rising demand for spirulina and chlorella, mainly from the nutraceutical and pet food industries.
Market Dynamics
Drivers
Rising health concerns and availability of essential vitamins and nutrients
Consumers are becoming more conscious of their snacking habits, and are increasingly adopting healthier snacking foods such as Algae Protein due to the metabolic benefits they provide. Healthy snacking is also well-regarded as a supplement to weight loss, as these snacks provide the body with important vitamins and nutrients. Protein and starch digestion skills can be modified to change the nutritional content of Algae Protein. Over the forecast period, the Global Algae Protein Market is expected to be driven by growing demand for weight control and healthy snacking.
Growing vegan population and surging demand from end-users
Surging demand of Algae Protein from numerous end-user industries is the key factor contributing in the market growth. Additionally, because of the growing vegan population and animal cruelty issues, plant-based protein consumption has increased over the last decade, creating a better growth opportunity for the Algae Protein industry.
Restraint
Allergic reactions and high costs associated with market
The highly sensitive manufacturing process of Algae Protein makes it an expensive commodity to use, which is a limiting factor for the Global Algae Protein Market industry. Additionally, Algae Protein is confronted with a number of allergic reaction issues after consumption as a dietary supplement which is further hampering the market for Algae Protein.
