Collagen Market Drivers and Opportunities

Technological Advancements in Extraction and Processing

Technological advancements in collagen extraction and processing have significantly transformed collagen-based products' efficiency, purity, and application potential. Innovations such as recombinant technology, precision fermentation, and optimized enzymatic hydrolysis have enabled the development of highly bioavailable, customizable, and sustainable collagen solutions tailored to a wide range of industries, including medical, nutraceuticals, and cosmetics. For instance, in July 2024, Evonik VECOLLAN, a next-generation recombinant collagen, was produced through a controlled, animal-free microbial fermentation process. It offers exceptional biocompatibility and batch-to-batch consistency, critical for advanced biomedical applications such as wound healing, tissue regeneration, and 3D bioprinting. VECOLLAN is engineered for diverse forms and cross-linking options, significantly expanding the functional potential of collagen beyond traditional formats. Similarly, CollPlant Biotechnologies has developed plant-based recombinant human collagen (rhCollagen) using genetically engineered tobacco plants. This unique platform allows for scalable, safe, and sustainable collagen production for medical aesthetics, regenerative medicine, and orthobiologics. CollPlant's partnerships with industry leaders to develop 3D bioprinted implants and aesthetic products underscore these advanced collagen forms' commercial and therapeutic viability.

Innovation in Plant-Based and Recombinant Collagen

Plant-based and recombinant collagen offer metabolically compatible, ethically conscious, and pathogen-free solutions that align with evolving consumer preferences and regulatory trends. These alternatives are suitable for vegan and vegetarian consumers. They also eliminate the risks of transmissible diseases such as bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) and transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs), which are often associated with land animal-derived collagen. Furthermore, these sources overcome cultural and religious restrictions tied to traditional collagen, making them suitable for a wider global demographic.

Key players are investing significantly in this collagen sector to capitalize on the demand. For instance, Evonik, in partnership with Jland Biotech, has invested in the production of vegan collagen through precision fermentation technology. This strategic move aims to meet the growing demand for non-animal collagen ingredients in beauty and health applications. In February 2024, Evonik also launched its biotech-based vegan collagen ingredients designed specifically for skin and hair care products, further validating the commercial viability and consumer appeal of these innovations. In addition, in May 2024, HTL Biotechnology acquired Modern Meadow's human recombinant collagen platform that provides biotech-derived collagen. It allows HTL to strengthen its presence in the beauty and biomedical industries by offering scalable and sustainable collagen solutions produced through synthetic biology.

Collagen Market Share Analysis by Geography

The geographical scope of the collagen market is mainly divided into five regions: North America, Asia Pacific, Europe, the Middle East & Africa, and South & Central America.

Europe held a significant market share in 2024. Europe is one of the largest markets for baked goods worldwide, and the UK is among the largest contributors in the region. According to the Annual Business Survey, the bakery industry was one of the largest manufacturing sectors, valued at US$ 5.8 billion in 2022. It contributed approximately 13% of the total gross value added in food and beverage manufacturing. Bread is the fastest-growing bakery product in the region. According to UK Flour Millers, bread is bought by 99.8% of British households, and ~11 million loaves are sold every day in the UK. Hydrolyzed collagen and gelatin are widely used to produce baked goods. For instance, they are used to enhance the baking properties and potentially extend the shelf life of bread by impacting the bread's staling process. Collagen is added to the dough in small amounts, enhancing the crumb hardness, texture, and overall structure of the baked goods.

The region experienced significant growth in the personal care and cosmetics industry. L'Oréal reported that in 2022, Europe had 575 million consumers of its personal care and cosmetics products. This number is expected to rise by an additional 40 million by 2030, driven by the increasing number of middle-class and upper-middle-class consumers in the region. L'Oréal and other personal care and cosmetics companies widely use collagen in their skincare products. For instance, L'Oréal offers Age Perfect Anti-Sagging + Even Tone Collagen Expert Moisturizer SPF 30 and other collagen moisturizers. Thus, the growing demand for baked goods and increased sales of personal care and cosmetics products propel the collagen market growth in the region.
