Hydrolyzed Collagen Market

Market Overview:

The global hydrolyzed collagen market size reached USD 1.24 Billion in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 2.07 Billion by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 5.9% during 2025-2033. The shifting consumer inclination toward the consumption of clean-labeled beverages and food supplements, the rising health consciousness, and the extensive product usage in cosmetic goods due to its anti-aging property represent some of the key factors driving the market.

Hydrolyzed collagen (HC) refers to a group of several peptides with a low molecular weight that is usually formulated by enzymatic reaction in acids or alkaline media under a specific incubation temperature. It can be further broken down into easily dissolvable and digestible smaller peptides and amino acids. HC is usually present in the skin, scale, bones, connective tissues, and flesh of various marine and poultry, and livestock animals, including beef and pigs. HC is enriched with vitamins, biotin, zinc, and essential amino acids, including hydroxyproline, glycine, and proline. These nutrients allow proper functioning of tendons and joints, repair skin, muscle, and connective tissue damage, increase bone mass, and promote a healthy heart. Consequently, it is widely consumed directly or incorporated in its liquid and powdered versions in diverse beverages, supplements, medications, and cosmetic products.

Hydrolyzed Collagen Market Trends:

The shifting consumer inclination toward the consumption of clean-labeled beverages and food supplements to meet nutritional goals represents a prime factor currently driving the market toward growth. This can be further attributed to the rising health consciousness among individuals. Moreover, the widespread product adoption in the food and beverage (F&B) sector to improve chewiness, foam stabilization, softness, and texture of confectionery products and bars, is acting as another growth-inducing factor. In line with this, hydrolyzed collagen exhibits moisture-holding capacity and anti-aging and anti-melanogenic properties, due to which it is added during the formulation of various personal care and cosmetic products. This, in turn, is supporting the market growth. Such collagen-infused beauty goods are further employed to treat the effects of cancer, burns, trauma, and post-surgical outcomes, which is favoring the market growth. Furthermore, the extensive usage of hydroxide collagen in the pharmaceutical industry to compose medication, owing to their multiple health benefits is propelling the market growth. Additionally, the increasing product availability across multiple online and offline shopping platforms, such as e-commerce, hypermarket, and retail, is impelling the market growth. Other factors, such as the large-scale celebrity endorsements and major mergers and acquisitions (M&A) amongst researchers and key players to engineer product variants in effective packaging solutions, are creating a positive outlook for the market.
