Algal Protein Market Expected to Reach USD 1.77 Billion by 2033, Powered by 9% CAGR Growth Rate | FMI

Algal Protein Market

In 2022, the algal protein market (Markt für Algenproteine) was expected to be worth over USD 703.891 million. It is predicted that a shift in consumer preferences away from animal-based proteins and toward plant-based alternatives would increase the market for algal protein. By 2033, it’s expected to have generated USD 1,772.7 million, at a 9% CAGR from 2023 to 2033.

The capacity of microalgae protein to strengthen the immune system while improving nutritional intake, among other health benefits, may raise demand for the supplement in the nutraceutical industry. Consumers’ active quest for plant-based dietary supplements to increase intrinsic strength may have fueled the market’s rise.

Algal protein can be utilized to treat a wide range of conditions, including attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), premenstrual heart disease, diabetes, as well as many others. It also helps people lose weight. The product’s higher nutritional content, positive impact on the body’s defenses, as well as other health benefits, are driving up global demand for it. The tastes of consumers for plant-based as well as other meat alternatives have shifted as a result of growing sustainability concerns, like the production of meat’s increased greenhouse gas emissions and loss of biodiversity. This might lead to market expansion.

The protein level in processed beverages, food, and nutraceutical goods is always being sought after by manufacturers. The natural sources for protein which provide the maximum total protein are chlorella as well as spirulina algae. Manufacturers of nutraceuticals products, food & beverages, and pet food are including algae into their products increasingly regularly. It is anticipated that demand for the substance would rise over the following years as a result of algae being a viable source of protein.
