Based on technology, fish protein hydrolysate market is segmented into enzymatic hydrolysis, automatic hydrolysis, and automatic hydrolysis. Increasing demand for low toxicity and heavy metal concentration in fish protein hydrolysates is likely to boost the product adoption.
Fish protein hydrolysate industry from enzymatic hydrolysis segment is set to surpass USD 475 million by 2026 owing to the ability of this method to retain valuable fish nutrients, maintain neutral taste and shorten the reaction time
Based on form, fish protein hydrolysate market is bifurcated into powder, paste, and liquid. Powder solutions are widely used in manufacturing pharmaceutical grade protein powders that aid in muscle and blood recovery after accidents. Increasing demand for natural ingredients with lox toxicity in pharmaceutical industry and economical nature in comparison with whey isolate protein powders is likely to foster market share.
Fish protein hydrolysate market from powder form is set to register over 4.5% CAGR through 2026 on account of reduced chances of spoilage and low cost. These products have an excellent amino acid profile and a high-water solubility, making them suitable for nutraceutical and pharmaceutical formulations.
Based on source, fish protein hydrolysate market is bifurcated into anchovy, tilapia, tuna, sardine, atlantic salmon, crustacean, molluscs, and cod fish. Atlantic salmon protein hydrolysates are rich in omega 3 & long branched amino acids which makes them compatible with various aquaculture feed formulations. Its easily digestible nature along with compatibility with salt and sea water aquatic life is likely to boost product demand.
Global market from atlantic salmon is likely to surpass USD 120 million by 2026 owing to increasing demand for pure and high-quality protein hydrolysates. Industry players are rapidly developing targeted solutions for aquaculture industry by introducing pure atlantic salmon hydrolysates. These feeds help in reducing the outbreak of viral infections such as dropsy, fin root, and improves flesh to bone consistency in fish which is likely to boost market trends.
North America fish protein hydrolysate market is projected to witness over 3.5% CAGR through 2026 owing to increasing demand anti-aging and collagen enhancing cosmetics. These products are widely used to prepare anti-aging solutions owing to their rich amino acid and protein concentration which aids in quick skin repair.
Rising geriatric population and awareness of dermatological aspects of health care are likely to boost product landscape. Cosmetic industry players in region are expanding their product portfolio by introducing natural and protein rich cosmetic preparations. Increasing competition in market along with rising demand for natural ingredients in cosmetic preparations is likely to trigger regional market forecasts.
Governments across the world are implementing lockdowns along with enforcing restraints on shipping, air, road, and rail travel which is likely to hamper market growth. Fish protein hydrolysate requires various raw materials in order to produce a stable and pure product. Stringent restriction on trade & dwindling supply chains is making it difficult to source materials for food and beverage industry which is likely to hamper fish protein hydrolysate market growth.
Scarcity of raw materials like Atlantic Salmon sourced from shores of Scandinavian countries or high-quality Tuna from the Sea of Japan is likely to hamper growth. Aquatic products & fresh fish are highly perishable and therefore need to be sold, processed, or stored quickly. Blockages to transport routes are obstructive for fresh food supply chains and is likely to result in food loss which is likely to constrain the market expansion.
