Collagen is the principal structural component of the skin, muscles, bones, tendons, ligaments, and other connective tissues in the body. It is also found in organs, blood vessels, and the lining of the intestine. Collagen peptides, which are broken down collagen that is easier for the body to absorb, have been found in studies to be useful for older individuals and support skin and bone health during old.

Furthermore, the growing importance of improving immunity post-pandemic, as well as increased demand from various industries such as food & beverage, biomedical materials & devices, cosmetics & wellness, and pharmaceuticals, primarily around the world, are driving up the collagen market size. As research in these disciplines increases, the collagen market is experiencing an increase in demand from North American regions.

Market Dynamics

The Increasing Number of Novel Product Launches

The strategies followed by the companies helps to drive the market growth. For instance, on June 21, 2023, Revive Collagen, Europe's fastest growing liquid collagen supplement brand, announces its worldwide expansion, opening at Saks Fifth Avenue. Saks is the first US luxury retailer to carry Revive Collagen's award-winning line of ready-to-drink collagen supplements, which have thousands of loyal customers and five-star ratings.

Saks will carry Revive Collagen's core ready-to-drink marine collagen supplement line, which includes world-class beauty ingredients and essential vitamins like Retinol, Vitamins B6 B12, C & D and its original product with 8,500mg of type 1 marine collagen plus Aloe Vera and Hyaluronic Acid. Additionally, in May 2022, Pura Collagen, an award-winning collagen solutions firm, is honoured to announce its collaboration with GenM, the menopausal partner for companies. Pura is joining a group of like-minded brands and businesses united in their goal of improving the menopause experience for all. 

Along with Pura, GenM works with over 50 brands, including Marks & Spencer, Royal Mail, and Vichy, to help organisations recognise and respond to menopause needs, such as improving product and service signposting, encouraging responsible workplace policies, and promoting accurate and inspiring marketing. As a result, the aforementioned factors contribute to market expansion.

Rise in Use of Collagen in the Personal Care Industry

Human skin collagen fibres weaken over time, losing thickness and strength, resulting in skin ageing. Collagen is a nutritional component used in cosmetic treatments for bone regeneration, cartilage regeneration, vascular and heart reconstruction, skin replacement, and soft skin enlargement, among other things. Many soaps, shampoos, facial creams, body lotions, and other cosmetics include collagen.

For instance, according to NLM, a study was conducted in which all of the human studies included were randomised controlled trials, most of which were conducted in high- to middle-income countries, and found that both oral and topical collagen supplements aid to postpone the ageing process, with no differences between the two kinds of collagen. The results from the analysed research revealed that when taken orally, both collagen supplements increase skin moisture, elasticity, and hydration. Furthermore, collagen improves skin wrinkles and roughness, and existing research has identified no negative side effects from taking it orally. As a result, the aforementioned factors contribute to market expansion.

Side Effects Associated with Collagen is Expected to Hamper the Market’s Growth

Collagen supplements typically have little adverse effects. Some people experience moderate stomach issues or a sour taste in their mouth after taking the supplement. Taking collagen supplements as directed by a healthcare expert is generally safe. Before beginning any new supplements or increasing the use of any existing supplements, a person should always consult with their doctor. 

Collagen supplement side effects are generally moderate and can include diarrhoea, an overall feeling of heaviness in the stomach, and rashes. Otherwise, using collagen supplements should not offer any substantial health hazards in most persons. Another disadvantage of using oral collagen supplements is the chance of developing kidney stones. Collagen peptide supplements should be avoided by patients who have a history of calcium oxalate kidney stones. It is advisable to start slowly, with 5 to 6 grammes per day, though they should still see their doctors. As a result, the aforementioned factors restrict market expansion.   

Market Segment Analysis

The global collagen market is segmented based on source, product, extraction method, form, application and region.

The Plant Based Accounted for Approximately 41.07% of the Collagen Market Share

Plant-based collagen supplement is in high demand owing to the increasing need for safer, organic and healthier supplement alternatives to animal-based products. The demand for the plant-based collagen supplement increases because of numerous health benefits associated with the consumption of plant-based collagen, which are anticipated to drive market growth during the forecast period. Plant-based collagen supplements can help to improve skin moisture and elasticity. 

These are mainly taken by consumers to lessen wrinkles. These supplements increase the natural production of collagen in body and improve joints and digestive health. The launches and other strategies by companies also helps to drive the segment growth. For instance, in July, 2023, OZiva, India's leading certified clean and plant-based holistic health brand, recently announced the favorable results of a clinical research on CollabZen, the key plant-based component in OZiva Collagen Builder. This unique composition has received a lot of attention because of the excellent skin health results it achieves through a vegetarian and plant-based approach.

Additionally, May, 2023, Sonage Skincare introduces the Vegan Collagen Boosting Serum, a plant-based, cruelty-free serum that firms and awakens the face while minimizing the appearance of fine wrinkles and neutralizing free radical damage. This product, which comes with a virtual ASMR experience, changes the way we think about skincare. As a result, the aforementioned elements contribute to segment growth.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis

The global market for collagen is expected to grow as people become more conscious of what they eat and how it impacts their bodies. People have started consuming collagen for muscle building. During the crisis, many major players continuously strategized new tactics, such as launching new products and joint ventures, to capture the market. 

Since March 2020, there has been a rise in the demand for vitamin C and protein supplements of more than 100%. The declaration of dietary supplements as an "essential" business has maintained the supply of these nutrients. For instance, in April 2020, GELITA AG, which provides collagen peptides, launched "VERISOL," a new bioactive collagen peptide that enhances hair growth. The company found that in the study conducted on 44 women for 26 weeks, there was a 31% increase in hair growth due to the administration of bioactive collagen peptides (BPC).

Key Developments

• In May 2023, The Collagen Jelly Beauty Complex, a new beauty-from-within vitamin, is now available in a jelly stick pack shape from the supplement manufacturer. The supplement comprises Gelita's Verisol brand collagen types 1 and 3, which have been optimised to maximise collagen production. The lotion is designed to promote healthy, glowing skin while also reducing the visibility of fine lines and wrinkles.
• In January 2023, VeCollal is a Belgian firm that has created a revolutionary vegan alternative to animal collagen supplements for usage in nutraceuticals, cosmetics, and functional meals. Collagen is typically sourced from animals, which makes it inappropriate for vegetarians and can occasionally trigger allergies – particularly when it comes to marine collagen. Animal collagen also has a different amino acid profile than human collagen. VeCollal claims that its product is identical to the human collagen profile.
• On December 04, 2021, Geltor has announced the soon launch of a product line created in partnership with collagen enthusiast and K-Beauty influencer Sally Olivia Kim. In October, Kim was named Geltor's Entrepreneur-in-Residence. While California-based Geltor has not explicitly stated what it has been working on with Kim, ingestible plant-based collagen appears to be a possibility, given that the beauty founder already has a line of such products, Crushed Tonic, which features marine-based collagen and is sold in Sephora and through Anthropologie.
