According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Gelatin Market is accounted for $4.26 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach $7.34 billion by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 9.5% during the forecast period. Gelatin is a delicate, colourless, water soluble, transparent material with high molecular weight. It is a rich supply of protein derived from collagen present in animals. Gelatin is sticky semi-solid gel. Edible gelatin is the most general form existing that does not contain additives or preservatives. Non-edible gelatins are used mainly used in cosmetics and photography. 

Based on the U.S. Census data and Simmons National Consumer Survey (NHCS), 110.71 million Americans consumed Jell-O Gelatin in 2020. Commercially manufactured gelatin is packaged in ¼-ounce envelopes of desiccated granules; paper-thin sheets, known as leaves (used in jelled Central and Eastern European desserts and aspics); and meltable blocks (Great Britain). In Latin America, gelatin is often mixed with milk or cream instead of water for the popular creamy desserts. In Russia, gelatin encases pigs' feet and other meats.



Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Demand for Low-Fat and Fat-Free Food Products

In present scenario people mostly prefer to have low-calorie; fat-free foods and they are more concerned about health issues. Gelatin is an essential part of production meals with less fat. As it can mix oil and water, it can be used to substitute some of the high-fat content in several products. Products like half-fat butter, reduced-fat cheese, and fat-free ice cream gelatin helps to cut down fat without sacrificing the flavor of the product. Gelatin changes things more stable, long lasting, and gives a creamy consistency. Therefore, adding up gelatin gives food a smooth, creamy texture and makes it look and taste the same. Also, increasing health awareness, and urbanization, along with increasing demand for dietary supplements, functional, and processed food products are considered the major driving factor for the growth of the Global Gelatin Market during the forecast period.

Restraint:

Awareness of Plant-Based Gelatin

Gelatin is made up of animal parts. People who don't eat meat for different reasons use other kinds of gelatin. Majority portion of the world's population is vegetarian, and people who switch to a vegan diet avoid ingredients like gelatin that appear from animal protein. Gelatin from animals or the sea is being replaced by plant-based products like agar-agar, pectin, and carrageenan, this is affecting the gelatin market. Additionally, concerned about the risk of animal-borne diseases like bovine, spongiform other skin allergies and health issues associated with animal gelatin. The gelatin market isn't growing as fast as it could since people aren't able to digest animal protein and want to eat foods with protein.

Opportunity:

The Trend of Halal Gelatin and Clean Green Gelatin

Halal Gelatin is a type of gelatin derived from bases that fulfill with Islamic law. Halal gelatin can be manufactured from bones of cows and sheep. Due to the recognition, demand, and health benefits of halal gelatin, market players have started producing halal gelatin particularly. These companies are halal licensed, which provides market players with a major opportunity to produce the gelatin industry. Growing customer preference for food products with clean and transparent labels is a growing market trend. Gelatins with a clean label contain recognized, sustainably sourced, and organically derived ingredients and no artificial additives (no e-numbers) or chemicals. Regional players have begun to emerge and establish their position by introducing beef gelatin with a clean label to fulfill the increased consumer demand for gelatin with a clean label.

Threat:

Stringent government regulations towards animal-origin food additives

Thickening and gelling agents, such as bovine gelatin, are known as food additives. They can be added to food and products as per the several laws and regulations imposed by regulatory system across countries worldwide. The regulations laid down for the use of bovine gelatin include the maximum limits for its use, the restrictions as to the food categories in which it can be used, the authorized functions, and the mandatory use of clean labeling for food products that use bovine gelatin. The imposed regulations are impeding the bovine gelatin market growth.

Covid-19 Impact

The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant influence on businesses and the economy. Since most gelatin is sold through ease stores and supermarkets, the retail channels were severely affected as many vendors closed or decreased their hours of operation. The abrupt impact of COVID-19, there was an increase in demand for items that encourage immunity and welfare, which had auspicious effect on the market. The gelatin foods market saw a slight downfall post the pandemic, due to the lockdown and physical distancing. People are more concerned about food intake and buying new products during the pandemic. Moreover, due to the economic crisis, government-imposed social distancing norms, there by halting the production of gelatin which has negatively impacted the growth of Global Gelatin Market.

The stabilizer segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

Gelatin is a polymer of amino acids found in collagen in bone tissue and animal skin. It is commonly used gelatin as stabilizer on an ice cream. Stabilizers are used to bind water, to reduce the amount of free water, increase the viscosity of ice cream and minimize the formation of ice crystals so the ice cream texture is softer. The stabilizer used in the ice cream mixture is 0.1 - 0.5%. The stabilizer increases the thickness of the dough by forming matrix gel and hold the dispersed liquid phase.

The food and beverage segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

In food and beverage industry, gelatin is used as an essential additive for producing dietary supplements, and beverages. Several manufacturers produce bovine grade collagen for food and beverage applications. Growing demand for these products in confectionery and desserts are predictable to have a positive impact on market growth. In addition, rising demand for gelatin as a food additive to develop rheological properties is expected to open new avenues for the product over the projected period. Hence, the increased consumer preferences for clean label products drive the growth of the global gelatin market.

Region with highest share:

Europe segment holds the largest share in the market due to the urbanization, and rising purchasing power of consumers, development in the food and healthcare industry in this region. Moreover, the wide availability of raw materials and key gelatin manufacturing are driving the growth of the Global Gelatin Market. This market is highly consolidated with the presence of multinational Food and beverages and pharmaceutical companies. The high consumption of sweets and baked goods, such as jellies, in the country, has prompted food manufacturers to include gelatin, thereby driving the gelatin customer base.

Region with highest CAGR:

Asia Pacific market revenue is expected to expand at strong CAGR during the forecast period endorsed to rapid expansion of the R&D activities, and increasing purpose of gelatin in pharmaceutical industries. In addition, rapid growth of food and beverages sector due to increasing population in some countries in the region, drive revenue growth of the APAC market. Demand for gelatin-based dietary supplements and functional foods and beverages is anticipated to increase as consumer tastes shift toward proper weight management and muscular strength enhancement. Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest growing market in light of the growing demand for healthier, innovative, and fast and convenient food in the region.
