Market Dynamics: Drivers & Restraints
Requirement for sustainable bioproducts
The global focus on sustainability has led to the 'Zero Waste' campaign by the European Union, which promotes waste prevention through waste reduction and source separation. This strategy aims to combat climate change by reducing food waste and increasing resource efficiency. The EU classifies eggshells as hazardous waste, encouraging businesses to value them through vertical integration.
Eggshells are primarily discarded in landfills and have few outlets, but they have potential Forms as functional food ingredients due to their high nutritional value. They can be used as a nutritional supplement in animal and human diets, as well as a raw material for face masks and skin treatments. The EU's Zero Waste policy encourages businesses to value eggshells through vertical integration.
High cost of research and development
Eggshell membranes are undergoing significant technological advancement, requiring substantial research and development costs. These costs may include clinical trials and product research for advertising claims, adhering to food and healthcare regulations. Manufacturers must comply with these regulations to obtain reasonable ROIs. To gain a competitive advantage, they invest in R&D for innovative Forms, regulatory requirements, intellectual property, and product differentiation.
Market Segment Analysis
The global eggshell membrane market is segmented based on product type, form, application and region.
The hydrolyzed eggshell membrane from the product type segment accounted for approximately 54.1% of the eggshell membrane market share
The hydrolyzed eggshell membrane from the product type segment accounted for approximately 54.1%. Hydrolyzed eggshell membrane segment is expected to have high market share on account of major factors, such as its concentration, mass availability, and content of the membrane. Additionally, the presence of significant producers producing the ingredient in the hydrolyzed form is boosting the segment growth.
Hydrolyzed membranes are frequently used by an array of industries across the globe as they comprise the highest content of membranes. The hydrolyzed eggshell membrane consists of a number of bioactive elements that impact the physiology and presentation of the skin, nails, or hair. The supply and demand sides both observed a high preference for the hydrolyzed type, owing to which the hydrolyzed segment is expected to dominate the industry over the forecast period.
Market Geographical Analysis
North America is estimated to hold about 38.4% of the total market share throughout the forecast period
North America is estimated to hold about 38.4% of the total market share throughout the forecast period due to the region's high obesity rate is attributed to dietary habits, high disposable income, and access to processed foods.
