Market Growth Factors
The collagen market has been affected by health, wellness and natural products due to increasing consumer interest in preventative health, fitness and maintaining overall health. Collagen intake is in tandem with the growing aging population across the globe since it promotes skin elasticity and muscle recovery, joint mobility. This is especially the case in the nutraceutical and functional foods markets where demand is for supplements or foods that can provide a physiological benefit. The clean label, high protein and minimally processed features of collagen products meet consumer expectations for formats needed to address this trend and are being marketed for powdered and capsule supplements as well as functionalized beverages.
Another driver of growth is rising demand for collagen in food and beverage applications. As a concentrated source of protein, collagen is used in protein bars, protein beverages, and protein powders to increase energy. For example, Lifeway's Probiotic Smoothie + Collagen Line was launched in January 2025 and is 100% lactose free. Collagen is also used to improve the mouthfeel and texture of food and drink products including yogurts, ice creams, sausages, creams, and meat products. It is used as an emulsifier and thickener in dressings, sauces, soups, beverages, and mayonnaise. Foaming properties are used in desserts, mousses, and whipped toppings for light foods. High demand also exists for these applications.
The cosmetics and personal care companies further the growth of the collagen market, fueled by increased demand for anti-aging and skin care products. Collagen is often added to creams, serums, and masks to improve skin hydration and to stimulate natural collagen production. For instance, Dr. Rashel launched India's first 100% vegan Bio-Collagen Deep Facial Mask in May 2025. Prepared with plant-based ocean collagen and soy fiber, the mask repairs damaged skin and reduces the appearance of fine lines. Collagen can also be used in lip masks or lip balms to improve softness and texture. The increasing use of marine collagen in other hair care products, such as shampoos and conditioners, for hair nourishment, repairing, shine, and thickness, along with technological advancement in the form of marine collagen peptides, microbial fermentation technology for collagen production, drug delivery systems, and high-pressure processing provides an opportunity for the market growth.
