The report highlights key driving factors and prominent market players along with their developments in the market.

Collagen is a fibrous protein and is the main component of fascia, cartilage, ligaments, tendons, bones, and skin. It has some highly remarkable properties, such as high tensile strength; along with elastin and soft keratin, collagen is responsible for skin strength and elasticity. Its degradation leads to wrinkles that accompany aging. Collagen casings are produced in various shapes, colors, and sizes. These are essential in the production of a variety of value-added or processed meat products. The high mechanical strength and fibrous nature of these products have boosted their demand in numerous applications, including casings for sausages and meat-based products. Furthermore, sausage production continues to grow across geographies, as sausages are increasingly becoming mainstream food. Different types of sausages available in the market include fresh sausages, dry-cured sausages, cooked sausages, and semi-dry sausages. Collagen casings have garnered popularity and consumer acceptance in Italy, the UK, the US, China, Germany, and Japan. It has received significant attention owing to its high strength, excellent biocompatibility, and biodegradability. Besides, collagen casings impregnated with nisin have been proven to possess antimicrobial activity against food spoilage bacteria and foodborne pathogens associated with ready-to-eat sausages. The benefits of using collagen casings over natural casings for sausages include lower production costs, excellent productivity of the collagen casings, ease of use of these casings, consistent size control, and most importantly, safe for consumption. Collagen casings are safe materials, and the methods used for the extraction of collagens to make the casings are free from all health risks. Higher strength and bacterial cleanliness are the key characteristics of collagen casings over the natural casings counterpart. All these factors are anticipated to propel the collagen casings market during the forecast period. 

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has drastically altered the status of the collagen casings industry. The outbreak has declined operational efficiency and interrupted the value chains due to the sudden closure of national and international boundaries, thereby creating revenue loss and damage. The disruption in the value chain has had a negative impact on collagen casings supply, which has impacted the growth of the collagen casings market. This, in turn, is affecting the development of the end-use industries such as food processing, food service, and food retail. However, as the economies are planning to revive their operations and start vaccine deployment across various countries, the demand for collagen casings is expected to rise globally. A rise in health awareness among the populace due to COVID-19, coupled with the production of collagen casings from safe materials, is expected to boost the growth of the collagen casings market.

Devro Plc., Overseas Casing Company, FABIOS Spółka Akcyjna (FABIOS SA), Fibran Group, LEM Products, Nippi Collagen NA Inc., Shenguan Holdings (Group) Limited, and Viscofan, S.A. are among the well-established players in the global collagen casing market. Companies in this market have been continuously focusing on strategies such as product developments, plant expansions, and mergers & acquisitions to expand their footprint worldwide and fulfill the growing demand.
