Gelatin Market Analysis Report: Key Players, Regional Insights, and Future Projections

Gelatin Market by Source (Animal, Plants), By Applications (Food & Beverages, Pharmaceuticals, Health & Nutrition, Cosmetics, Personal Care, Animal Feed), Type (Type A, Type B), Function (Thickener, Stabilizer, Gelling Agent) - Global Forecast to 2029
The global gelatin market [https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/gelatin-market-worth-5-6-billion-by-2029--exclusive-report-by-marketsandmarkets-302213266.html] is valued at USD 4.0 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.9%, reaching USD 5.6 billion by 2029. One of the primary growth drivers is the increasing demand for pharmaceutical-grade gelatin, widely used in capsules, tablets, and medical applications. Key players such as Tessenderlo Group and Gelita AG are investing heavily in R&D to maintain innovation and a competitive edge. For instance, Rousselot launched Quali-Pure HGP 2000 in May 2022, a highly purified gelatin designed for vaccines and wound healing, and expanded its X-Pure portfolio in 2021 with GelDAT, a pharmaceutical-grade modified gelatin.

Gelatin's versatility across sectors-ranging from food and beverages to pharmaceuticals and cosmetics-is also contributing to market expansion. Derived from collagen, gelatin serves as a thickening, stabilizing, and gelling agent in food and as a film-forming, moisturizing ingredient in cosmetics. Technological advancements and the development of ethical, alternative gelatin sources are further supporting market growth.

Pharmaceutical Applications Leading Demand

The pharmaceutical segment is projected to register the highest CAGR through 2029. Consumers are increasingly seeking health-oriented, nutritionally rich products. Gelatin is commonly used in pharmaceuticals in the form of hard and soft gel capsules and sponging agents. Hard gelatin capsules, favored for their fast drug release, ingredient uniformity, and oxygen barrier properties, are gaining traction due to their cost-effectiveness and simpler manufacturing process compared to soft gels. This segment is further boosted by increasing biopharmaceutical interest, such as Lonza's expansion of its TiO-free Capsugel product line in May 2022.

Type A gelatin is expected to witness the fastest CAGR over the forecast period due to its growing use in medical, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic applications. It is valued for its role in reconstructing skin collagen structures and is used in advanced drug delivery systems such as nanoparticles and microspheres. Major producers like Darling Ingredients and Symatese are actively expanding product lines to meet growing demand. Notably, in March 2023, Symrise launched a new range of Diana food bioactives, featuring Type A gelatin as a core ingredient for beauty and wellness products.
