Microalgae-based Products Market

Market Insights

The global Microalgae-based Products market is expected to cross market value of USD 61,876.0 million in 2027 from USD 40,635.8 million in 2020. It is expected to grow at a CAGR of over 6.2% during the forecast period.

Conventionally, microalgae such as chlorella are and spirulina are directly available in the market as supplements. The markets for these products were developed several years ago and their markets are relatively matured and are produced in significantly large quantities. Major production of spirulina is concentrated in Asia Pacific and the US while chlorella is primarily produced in Asia, both algae are produced in other smaller countries with prevalent warm climates.

Apart from such whole dried algae, other specific and high-value microalgae are also being produced on increasing scales. These molecules however are less competitive than the standard or conventional alternatives. Yet, some microalgae molecules have higher and more specific advantages over their conventional counterparts which increases their commercial viability. One of such examples is Astaxanthin, for instance taken from dried Heamtococcus Pluvialis is the most commonly developed molecule, available as dietary supplement or food additive. Growing awareness regarding superior benefits of microalgae based products and molecules over conventional products and supplements, therefore, is a prime factor that is supporting the growth of the global microalgae-based products market. Another critical factor supporting the market growth is technological development supporting mass scale production of novel microalgae products.

Key Market Drivers and Restraints

This report identifies and analyzes various factors supporting and inhibiting the growth of the microalgae-based products. It also takes into consideration major factors that will determine future growth opportunities in the global microalgae-based products industry.

Impact of COVID 19

In line with the upsets occurring in the overall food and beverages, and dietary supplements business, the COVID-19 pandemic has also had a prominent setback to the growth of the overall microalgae-based products industry. Key opinion leaders indicate that uptake of even the conventionally matured segments such as spirulia has had experienced setback in its growth. This is mainly due to the fact that microalgae based food and beverages products are not considered as a part of mainstream supplementation regimen, and have easily available substitutes in the form of cheaper synthetic supplementation products.
