Carrageenan’s demand is robust in the food and beverage industry, particularly in the United States, which held a 27% revenue share in 2022. The increasing use of carrageenan as an additive in processed foods, convenience meals, and packaged items contributes to its sustained demand. Additionally, the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries are driving future opportunities for carrageenan, with applications in medication formulations and cosmetic goods.

The growing popularity of processed and packaged foods, coupled with the rising trend of using plant-based additives, is a significant growth factor for the carrageenan market. Collaboration and partnerships between key players and smaller producers enhance regional presence, fostering market trends. The pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries’ adoption of carrageenan further strengthens its market position.

Key Takeaways

  • The United States is figured out to have control over nearly 27% of the carrageenan produced worldwide.
  • China is the leading market in the Asia Pacific, as well as the significantly growing market for carrageenan production. Over the forecast years, its regional carrageenan market is poised to register a CAGR of 7.4%.
  • Due to the rising trend of plant-derived additives for vegan foodstuffs, the gelling agent category holds a sizeable sales share in 2022.
  • Upon a rising demand from fermentation industries, the stabilizer market segment based on application is predicted to expand quickly over the coming years.
  • The emulsifiers and binding agents’ segment is projected to expand as a result of ongoing attempts to phase out partly artificial emulsifiers.
  • Based on application, the thickening agent segment’s revenue share was nearly 40%, which was leading in 2022 and the preceding years. This is a result of the F&B as well as pharmaceutical industries’ growing desire for clean-label thickeners.
  • Lambda is mostly utilized as a thickener, since it cannot make a gel, unlike kappa and iota forms. While the kappa product type segment’s revenue share was significantly approaching 70% in 2022 and earlier years.
