The global chitosan market is expected to grow from USD 4.63 billion in 2019 to USD 19.73 billion by 2027, at a CAGR of 19.87% during the forecast period 2020-2027.
Chitosan is basically a sugar which is obtained from the outer skeleton of marine animals like shellfishes. It is fibrous and thus helps in the absorption of fats. It is highly used in the production of medicines. It is used for high cholesterol, high blood pressure and obesity. It is also used for increasing appetite and curing insomnia. Surgeons often use chitosan for the tissue donors to enhance the process of rebuilding of tissues. It is also used for restricting bleeding after a surgery. Further, it also increases the shelf life of packaged food. The availability of raw materials, rising awareness among consumers and the increasing R&D are the factors contributing to the market growth.
This study delivers a comprehensive analysis of source, grade, applications and regions. The source segment includes krill, shrimps, crabs, lobsters, prawns, squids and others. Shrimps constitute a significant market share. The outer shells of shrimps are highly used in the production of chitosan. The shells of shrimps are washed thoroughly so as to remove all the impurities. Also, the process of extraction of the shell is easier than the other source shellfishes. The grade segment includes pharmaceutical, food and industrial. Out of these, industrial-grade is the dominant sub-segment. It is used for water treatment, production of agrochemicals in different industries. The growing demand for chitosan in industries for different uses is expected to drive the global market. The application segment includes food and beverages, cosmetics, water treatment, medical & pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals and biotechnology. Among these, water treatment has the most extensive application of chitosan. It is used as coagulants and flocculants during treatment of water. The increasing demand from various segments like industries, commercial and municipal waste is contributing to the market demand of chitosan.
The market has been divided into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle East & Africa, and South America. Asia-Pacific is the dominant market in terms of revenue. The increasing demand for bio-based products and the growing number of manufacturers in the region is the major factor responsible for market growth.
Some of the notable players of the chitosan market are Koyo World Co. Ltd., Yunzhou Biochemistry Co., FMC Corporation, Biophrame Technologies, Advanced Biopolymers AS, Agratech LLC., Kraeber & Co. GmbH, Foodchem International Corporation, Dainichiseika Color & Chemicals Mfg. Co. Ltd, United Chitotechnologies Inc. and others. In February 2019, an Indian company based in Bangalore, named, Axio Biosolutions Pvt. Ltd. launched a chitosan-based next-generation wound care dressing. It will help the patients to heal fast from cavity wounds, ulcers, etc.
This study forecasts revenue growth at global, regional, and country levels from 2020 to 2027. Fior Markets has segmented the market based on below-mentioned segments:
