Global Carrageenan Market to Reach US$ 1,572.4 Million by 2032, Stimulated by Significant Growth in Food and Beverage Industry

August 17, 2023 | Food & Beverages

According to the latest report by IMARC Group, titled “Carrageenan Market Report by Product (Kappa, Iota, Lambda), Function (Thickener, Gelling Agent, Stabilizer, and Others), Application (Food and Beverage, Pharmaceutical, Personal Care and Cosmetics, and Others), and Region 2024-2032,” the global carrageenan market size reached US$ 951.3 Million in 2023. Carrageenan is a naturally occurring food additive derived from red seaweed. It is utilized as a gelling, thickening, and stabilizing agent in various food and beverage products. The primary sources of Carrageenan are Chondrus crispus, Eucheuma, and Gigartina species, which are abundant in coastal regions around the world. The substance is extracted from the seaweed, processed, and converted into a fine powder or gel form for commercial use. Due to its unique properties, Carrageenan finds extensive applications in the food industry, where it enhances the texture and consistency of products such as dairy items, processed meats, desserts, and plant-based alternatives. Moreover, it is often employed in pharmaceutical and cosmetic products for its emulsifying and thickening capabilities. Carrageenan is preferred by many manufacturers as it is considered safe for consumption and approved by regulatory bodies.


Global Carrageenan Market Trends:

The widespread utilization of Carrageenan in the food and beverage industry as a thickening, stabilizing, and gelling agent is driving the global market. Carrageenan's unique properties make it an attractive alternative to synthetic additives, catering to the growing demand for natural and clean-label ingredients. Furthermore, the increasing popularity of processed and convenience foods has also fuelled the Carrageenan market. With consumers seeking convenience and extended shelf life, food manufacturers have turned to Carrageenan to improve texture, enhance mouthfeel, and prevent ingredient separation in various products, including dairy, meat, and processed foods. The global shift towards healthier lifestyles and dietary preferences has further boosted the Carrageenan market. As Carrageenan is plant-based and generally considered safe for consumption, it aligns well with the growing demand for plant-derived and vegetarian or vegan-friendly food products. Moreover, the growing awareness about food safety and preservation has augmented the demand for Carrageenan, as it helps maintain the quality and stability of processed foods while reducing the need for artificial preservatives. Looking forward, the market value is projected to reach US$ 1,572.4 Million by 2032, expanding at a CAGR of 5.61% during 2024-2032.
