Artificial casings market to reach USD 5.87B by 2031, driven by meat demand and growth of plant-based sausages

The global artificial casings market is experiencing steady growth as meat processors and food manufacturers increasingly adopt artificial solutions to improve efficiency, consistency, and product quality. The market was valued at USD 3.56 billion in 2023 and is expected to grow from USD 3.99 billion in 2024 to USD 5.87 billion by 2031, registering a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period from 2024 to 2031.

This growth reflects rising global meat consumption, the expanding processed food industry, and the increasing preference for artificial casings among sausage manufacturers due to their operational and cost advantages over natural casings.

What Are Artificial Casings

Artificial casings are manufactured sausage casings produced using materials such as collagen, cellulose, plastic, fibrous materials, textiles, and plant-based ingredients. Unlike natural casings derived from animal intestines, artificial casings offer uniform size, improved strength, better hygiene, and enhanced processing efficiency. They are widely used in both animal-based and plant-based sausage production across industrial and food service applications.

Artificial casings allow manufacturers to automate production, reduce labor costs, minimize contamination risks, and enhance product appearance, taste, and texture through the incorporation of flavoring agents, smoke, and color additives.

Key Market Drivers Supporting Growth

The primary driver of the artificial casings market is the continuous increase in global meat consumption and production. Rapid population growth, urbanization, and rising disposable incomes have significantly boosted demand for sausages and processed meat products worldwide. According to international agricultural outlooks, global meat consumption is projected to increase steadily through the next decade, directly supporting demand for artificial casings.

Sausage manufacturers are increasingly shifting from natural to artificial casings due to challenges associated with natural casings, including inconsistent sizing, higher contamination risks, limited availability, and complex storage requirements. Artificial casings provide uniformity, higher mechanical strength, and ease of handling, making them well suited for high-speed, automated sausage production lines.

Additionally, the rapid expansion of food service chains, quick-service restaurants, and ready-to-eat food formats is increasing demand for standardized sausage products, further accelerating adoption of artificial casings across global markets.

Emerging Opportunities in Vegetarian and Plant-Based Casings

One of the most promising growth opportunities in the artificial casings market is the emergence of vegetarian and plant-based sausage casings. Growing health awareness, sustainability concerns, and ethical considerations are driving a global shift toward plant-based diets. The rising popularity of vegan and flexitarian food choices is encouraging meat producers to expand into plant-based sausage alternatives.

Vegetarian artificial casings support the production of plant-based sausages that meet consumer expectations for texture, appearance, and cooking performance. As investments in plant-based food innovation continue to rise, demand for vegetarian casings is expected to grow at a faster pace than traditional casing types.

Segment Insights Highlight Market Dynamics

By type, collagen casings dominate the artificial casings market in 2024, accounting for the largest share due to their cost-effectiveness, edibility, uniform diameter, and high mechanical strength. However, vegetarian casings are projected to register the highest growth rate during the forecast period, driven by advancements in food technology and the expanding vegan consumer base.

By application, animal-based sausages currently hold the largest share of the market, supported by strong meat consumption trends. Meanwhile, the plant-based sausages segment is expected to witness the fastest growth as consumer preferences shift toward healthier and sustainable food options.

By distribution channel, the offline segment dominates the market, supported by traditional procurement practices and the availability of a wide product range through established supply networks. The online segment, however, is expected to grow rapidly due to convenience, digital adoption, and improved logistics capabilities.

Regional Market Insights

Europe leads the global artificial casings market, accounting for the largest share in 2024. The region's dominance is driven by a strong meat processing industry, high sausage consumption, and stringent food safety and quality standards.

Asia-Pacific is expected to register the fastest CAGR during the forecast period, supported by rapid urbanization, rising demand for fast food, and increasing adoption of Western-style and cross-cultural food products in countries such as China and India.

Competitive Landscape

The artificial casings market is moderately competitive, with leading players focusing on capacity expansion, product innovation, and strategic acquisitions. Major companies operating in this market include Viscofan, S.A., SARIA SE & Co. KG, Selo B.V., Shenguan Holdings (Group) Limited, DAT-Schaub Group, ViskoTeepak Holding Ab Ltd, Viskase Companies, Inc., and Nippi Inc., among others.
