Middle East and Africa Collagen and Gelatin Market – Overview

Collagen is the most common protein in the body, while gelatin is a cooked version of collagen. As a result, they share a variety of traits and edges. Collagen is a protein that serves as a structural component of bones, skin, hair, muscles, tendons, and ligaments. Gelatin contains lysine, which aids with bone strength. It also aids the body's absorption of metal, which helps to keep bones strong and inhibits bone loss. Some people eat gelatin to lower their risk of pathology, which causes bones to weaken or brittle. Collagen is mostly employed as a quick-digesting biological process supplement. It will add it to low or tea, mix it into a smoothie, or blend it into soups and sauces without changing their culinary consistency. Gelatin, on the other hand, could be a colorless, brittle, and contrasted substance. It has a high molecular weight and is a protein source. Gelatin is valued for its gelling qualities, which have a variety of culinary applications and functions. It will be used to make handmade jellies and gummies, as well as thickened sauces and dressings.

Growth Drivers

Surging Demand for Nutricosmetics and Personal Care Products

The beauty and personal care industry is rapidly expanding. People are concerned with skincare and hair care, and they are looking for solutions that provide nourishment and deep hydration. They also favor items with anti-aging characteristics. Individuals' bodies produce less collagen as they age, resulting in skin concerns such as wrinkles, skin laxity, and dryness. However, alcohol consumption, smoking, and stress hasten the ageing process of the skin. Collagen peptides aid in the improvement of skin health and the slowing of the aging process. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved collagen implants to treat acne scars and smooth wrinkles. Hydroxylated collagen is mostly found in personal care and cosmetic products such moisturizers, anti-aging creams and lotions, acne-fighting gels, shampoos, and hair serums. When used in hair care products, collagen improves the appearance and strength of hair. It also helps to enhance the texture of physically or chemically damaged hair. Collagen-rich skincare products improve the appearance of damaged or dry skin by reducing flaking and restoring suppleness. People strongly believe that having beautiful skin necessitates a healthy lifestyle, which has shifted significantly in recent years. Consumers are increasingly choosing healthier alternatives to make their skin glow because there is a strong association between healthy skin and a balanced diet. As a result, the market for nutricosmetics has expanded in recent years. Nutricosmetics are skin, nail, and hair care products that also serve as nutritional supplements. They are frequently accessible as beverages, pills, or functional meals. As a result, the growing demand for collagen in personal care products and nutricosmetics gives an excellent opportunity for collagen market participants to expand their product offerings.

Restraints

Increasing Consumption Concerns and Stringent Regulations

Collagen generated from bovines and pigs is widely employed in the food and beverages, personal care, pharmaceutical, and biomedical industries. In the recent years, however, outbreaks of transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE), bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), and foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) in terrestrial animals have prompted concerns regarding the use of collagen and its impact on consumer health. Furthermore, collagen purification is a time-consuming and costly process. The protein is subjected to severe quality tests before it is commercially available for human consumption. Muslin countries in the MEA region prohibit the consumption of pigs and related products. As a result, the collagen sector is highly regulated, with producers required to follow a variety of safety regulations in different markets. As a result, strong government controls restrict the growth of the collagen market in the region.

Impact of COVID-19 on Middle East and Africa Collagen and Gelatin Market

COVID-19 had a detrimental impact on almost every industry, including food and beverages, agriculture, and cosmetics. The limits implemented to control the spread of the Coronavirus disrupted the gelatin and collagen supply chain, while manufacturing plants were shut down. The pandemic period altered consumer behavior, as individuals were more careful of the food they purchased. Consumer behavior has influenced the desire for novel gelatin products. The import and export of raw materials essential for gelatin manufacture were hampered as a result of the disrupted supply chain. However, demand for well-being and nutrition items grew during a specific phase of the pandemic (mid-2020 and early 2021) due to increasing population awareness of self-health care. The rise in demand for immune-boosting products has benefited the gelatin sector. The demand prompted the development and production of novel well-being products containing gelatin, which is known for its high nutritional content. Furthermore, the increased demand for preserved food goods during the lockdown period has resulted in significant market development, as gelatin is used as a thickening agent in preserved food products. Due to surging demand for collagen and gelatin-based products in the pharmaceutical and food and beverage industries, the negatively impacted industry is expected to spike.
