Gelatine Market Outlook
*this image is indicative*
The robust growth of the pharmaceuticals sector is boosting the gelatine market revenue. Gelatine is essential to create the shell for both soft and hard capsules, offering an effective means of protecting contents from microbial growth, contamination, and atmospheric oxygen. It is also used as a coating or binder for tablets to provide improved swallowability and protect APIs against light and oxygen, offering a low-cost alternative to capsules.

There is an increasing focus on exploring the use of gelatine, due to its biocompatibility and biodegradability, in 3D printing, especially in fields like tissue engineering, bioprinting, and food printing. In February 2024, researchers from Ghent University and IOCB Prague developed 3D-printed gelatine materials that can be easily monitored using an X-ray machine or through computed tomography (CT) for use in plastic and reconstructive surgeries. Moreover, the development of 3D bioprinting materials and bioink from gelatine for use in medical research and treatment is expected to fuel the gelatine demand forecast in the coming years.
Technological advancements and innovations in gelatine extraction and production processes aimed at developing high-quality gelatines at affordable costs are expected to drive the market in the coming years.
Growing focus on health and wellness; rising emphasis on sustainability; development of gelatine-based hydrogels; and increasing development of animal-free gelatine are favouring the gelatine market expansion.
The rising focus on health and wellness is creating lucrative gelatine market opportunities. Collagen, derived from gelatine, is known for its health benefits such as improved skin elasticity, skin health, and bone strength. Moreover, rising demand for functional foods, including protein-enriched products, snacks, and fortified beverages is surging the incorporation of gelatine to enhance mouthfeel, improve mouthfeel, and surge nutritional profile.
With the increasing emphasis on sustainability, gelatine manufacturers are adopting various practices to ensure that animals in raised in humane conditions, avoid the use of antibiotics and harmful chemicals in animal farmers, and employ ethical farming practices. The growing focus on transparency is prompting gelatine manufacturers to seek “ethically sourced” and “grass fed” labels.
The development of gelatine-based hydrogels in tissue engineering and wound dressings is aiding the market. Gelatine-based hydrogels boast excellent biodegradability, biocompatibility, and the ability to support cell growth. Furthermore, gelatine hydrogels are increasingly explored as controlled-release drug delivery systems due to their ability to encapsulate and gradually release therapeutic agents.
The increasing number of vegan individuals and the rising interest in plant-based foods are boosting the gelatine market revenue. Key players are increasingly investing in research activities to develop cost-effective plant-based alternatives to gelatine with improved functionality.
Gelatine manufacturers are attempting to reduce waste by utilising byproducts from sectors, such as fish processing and meat, hence minimising the environmental impact of gelatine production. Moreover, gelatine manufacturers are adopting eco-friendly packaging solutions, including the use of compostable, recyclable, and biodegradable packaging materials for gelatine-based products, reducing reliance on single-use plastics.
In June 2021, Provenance Bio developed animal-free gelatine identical to traditionally-sourced animal gelatine by using its proprietary protein expression platform. Through this, the company aims to address issues such as inconsistencies in quality and to make products devoid of contaminants. Similarly, a biotech startup, Jellatech, is focused on producing pure animal-free collagen and gelatine.
